I want to visit Irkutsk. Not for the women...although from my research and silverback expertise, I'd judge Irkutsk women to be the best in Russia...just to go someplace I'd never imagine going, and to see the lake, and because I need a break from the West. Maybe I'd learn Russian and just live there as an old codger hanging out at the local jazz cafe. https://vk.com/edison_craft?utm_source=t...m=referral

What makes the women there better than the rest of Russia?

It's a combination of Siberia (so they are a bit less snobby) and the fact that Irkutsk is considered a bit more sophisticated for that area, but the local economy sucks. The girls are cute and bored, and the available men are poor drunks. But it might just be a matter of taste...I hate girls that wear a lot of makeup and try to be model thin. Give me a sweet non-feminist 20 year old college student any day.

Irkutsk is a boring city, girls probably want something to do instead of partying with poor drunk gopniks. no doubt a foreigner can clean up in a week. Tyumen is a growing Siberian city that has some potential.

I also here there are more women than men. Maybe they have a reason to be jealous.

Not really. The sex ratio at birth is in the world average (1.01 males/females). It changes just for the population aged 60 years old +, with about 0.50 males/females - but this is a priori not your target group ......that said, there was actually a lack of eligible men in Russia, but this tends to disappear as more and more (as in Ukraine for that matter), the local guys/men take care of themselves, hit the gym, dress with style, ect ect, and more important, earn enough money to spoil their women (and russians are traditionally very generous with their money, especially when it comes to women).

Russian women are psychopathly jealous for the simple reason that russians are extreme and passionate people (it's the "russian soul" -русская душа- so well described by russian writers such as Gogol, Dostoievski, Tolstoi, ect). Very passionate. They can go from jovial to berserk in a heartbeat. As a side note, use the "L word" with caution with russian women, they take it very seriously.

Cool info. Where did you get the birth ratio data from? I am genuinely interested in exploring this subject. I say that there are more women than men from personal observation. These are some places where I go and notice more women than men: cafes, restaurants, supermarket, mall, bars, metro.

In most of Russia you'll feel like there are more women in that 18-25 age bracket due to national service, if you're in a place when the soldiers have leave then suddenly it changes back to normal and will feel sausage fest like when going out because the guys are all back in town and keen to have some fun.

I've also experienced that in the smaller cities the ratios are much more favourable, my personal theory is that a decent percentage of the guys who leave on national service never return and instead stay in the bigger cities.
