Where is the femininity in these girls you guys keep yapping about?
I have never been to Ukraine and it's been 10 years since I've been to Poland, I am not speaking from much experience so am not going to agree or disagree. I don't yap about the femininity of girls from Eastern Europe. But here are my thoughts:
1. I have a Slavic friend, and asked him about femininity of the girls in his home country, without using that word specifically. His perspective was that girls in his home country are thinner and almost always much better dressed than American girls. He's waxed nostalgic about certain cities on numerous occasions, without my prompting. But he also says that the girls are also very often selfish, ignorant, pushy, demanding and devious. Most have nothing interesting to talk about as many of the smarter, brighter girls have emigrated or expatriated to a western country with a higher standard of living. He uses variants of 'dumb' and 'stupid' a lot however I tend to take that with a grain of salt since he tends to apply those labels to people quickly if they don't show interest in the same topics he does. It seems to me that girls he describes tend to be more accepting of traditional domestic female gender roles, but does not make a connection between those roles and "femininity" in general.
2. A sensational talk show is probably not the best place to look for femininity. The environment seems designed to bring out conflict and arguments. Extraverted, strong-willed, argumentative girls are never going to appear feminine but they are great for stirring up shit on a reality show. It's notable that Ukraine can find girls of this type who are still thin and beautiful. In the US they tend to be meaty hags. Meanwhile, any truly feminine women onlookers are likely to be distressed by all the verbal conflict and won't be sitting there wearing a sweet, pleasing smile. So if they are there, we won't see them. Meanwhile the aspiring models and Max's pregnant sidekick, who seems to be a media personality herself, are probably not a representative sample.
That said, the girl in the red dress seemed relatively feminine despite the fact that she was claiming to want to sue Roosh
