The Eastern European "Svetlana" speaking English with a Russian accent fetish. And the "exotic" Asian (Thai/Filipina) fetish which I guess had succeeded the Polynesian/Hawaiian fascination from decades earlier.
Well here is both combined!

I thought you were a big proponent of integration.ladislav wrote:They are not Slavs. They are Turco-Mongols. Just because they speak Russian, does not make them Slavs. In Hawaii people speak English but it does not make them Anglo Saxons, does it?
In Jamaica, they speak English too. Does it make them Anglo Saxons?
Neither of the latter countries is a favorite of mine, but I think you are painting with too broad a brush.ladislav wrote: Kyrghizstan- same family as Afghanistan, Pakistan.

Depending on blood content and how they are registered with the local authorities. Kherson is in Ukraine and the people are Ukrainians.I think a lot of not-quite-Russians are nevertheless quite proud of their Russianness. Would anyone in Kherson actually describe themselves as a Turk?
One half of anything and that is what they are. By local rules.I tried to use Winston's banner to search a couple examples, but the web address for the page is not specific to the girl, so I can't post here. Anyway, I don't think the girls I am talking about are more than a quarter Turkic. One looked half Greek, half Slav..
And as you know, a girl who is part Greek or Armenian is not "Turco-Mongol".

Yes, but these are Asian countries the way Slavs see it.What I've heard is that northern Afghanistan is Turkic, NW is Aryan (part-Greek) I think, south is Pashto (Aryan-speaking, Farsi I think).
Once the -stans begin, the Slavic world ends.I guess there is a mixed Mongol/Aryan upper class throughout Pakistan, but I would have to guess the average people are still Dravidian in the South, Aryans in Punjab.

Agreed, but Kyrgyz ones are.
