If you want a Caucasian woman who is beautiful, intelligent, educated and at the same time holds family as her #1 priority in life, you cannot go pass Russian and Ukrainian women.
I know Winston has been to Russia and dated women there, stories of which he shared on my site Womenrussia.com some 15 years ago, and it didn't really work for him, so this forum tends to have an inclination toward Asian women. I agree Asian women are lovely, and there are lots of guys who prefer girls from Philippines or Thailand, and I have heard they make excellent wives.
Notwithstanding this, if you would like a European woman of the quality that is not available to you at home, go to Russia or Ukraine. Maybe also Belarus, Kazakhstan, and other post-USSR republics (they have lots of Russians who still live there, although there are some stunning Asian ladies as well, there were several Asian countries in the former USSR).
The advantage for men is an education in addition to strong family values.
Russia is still the country with the highest amount of people with degrees, and, for example, on
Elenasmodels.com we have over 90% of women who have a college or university degree. Some of them are doctors of medicine or science, lots of lawyers, accountants, engineers, architects, etc. They are all there and really want a husband.
Their lifestyle is closer to that of western countries, so to me, Russian and Ukrainian women are more compatible with people who want more than just a loving housewife. Girls from the former USSR are on average more intellectual, well-read, and educated.
If you haven't been to Elena's Models for a while, this is what we have done since 2014:
1. Completely eliminated any agents. Now ALL women register directly with Elenasmodels.com.
2. Affordable flat-fee membership plans. You know exactly how much it will cost you upfront. Chatting and emailing to women is free on Gold, Platinum, and Ultimate membership, so you can communicate as much as you want (no payment per message). Platinum and Ultimate plans have unlimited contacts, on Gold you can talk to 50 women. You are free to share your direct contact details and date and talk off the site.
3. We only approve 30% of women who apply. As compared to other Russian dating sites with flat fee membership, which approve everyone instantly, and only then remove scammers on complaints. We screen applicants vigorously before approval, so it's a much better system to protect our members, which saves you lots of time and emotional investment.
4. All women are personally interviewed by phone or Skype. We increased the number of administrators to conduct pre-approval interviews, so now we talk to every lady. Women confirm their knowledge of English, that they have a passport to travel, the knowledge of our rules (no money requests for any reason), that they will be communicating with men on their own and that they registered themselves directly (no agents). Women also show us their documents during Skype interviews.
5. We approve 2 times more women than in 2014. Our Russian traffic has increased, as well as reputation in Russia. We now approve double the number of women as compared to 3 years ago.
6. NO women from PPL sites are accepted. "Pay per letter" (PPL) is cancer in the body of international dating, which should be cut before it destroys it for good and sincere people. I know these sites pay good commissions to websites who promote them but they do a very bad job for clients. Before 2014 we didn't have a block on PPL women to register, and as such, they used to grab clients on Elena's Models and then ask them to move to PPL sites and pay for messages there. PPL girls also came with their culture of "getting something from dating", causing problems for men who fell for them. Now we check vigilantly and any woman who was part of PPL systems is immediately refused. Even if she was there in the past. No people who were "paid to date" can register on our site.
7. Full-site HTTPS. Your communication and data are on secure servers, the whole of a membership website, to add an extra level of safety.
8. Integrity disclosure. This is part of our Terms of Use: "Elena's Models operate all member-to-member communications with the following guarantee:
No automated introduction messages are used by ElenasModels.com to induce communication between members.
No automated "Bots" are hard-coded into the website to simulate profile visits, photo likes, chat requests, emails, expressions of interest, or any other communication.
No agents or third parties provide any profiles (questionnaires, photos, videos) in exchange for a payment or commission.
No translators or other contractors are employed to simulate communication between users."
This is why we have lots of success stories from international couples, which you can read on EM (scroll down to "Success stories"). In fact, member complaints are at all times low, problem personages simply don't get through the initial checks. So, come to EM if you haven't visited lately and you just may find what you have been looking for.
If your age is 30-45, you will be highly popular, all the girls who are 25-35 and want kids and family will be after you. But in general, it's best to write to women first, because we are not PPL, so women have no financial incentive to start a chat with you. Russian girls really hold to that "hunter-prey" dating scheme, where a man is supposed to pursue a woman, so it's actually very easy to become her favourite—just be persistent.
I see some guys evaluate dating sites by the number of mails they received... on a PPL site you will always get lots of mails and chat requests, for sure. Because people have a financial incentive to start and keep a conversation—you are paying per message. Our girls and women do not have any intensives, except finding a good husband for themselves. But deep in their hearts they truly believe that a "real man" will pursue his chosen woman, and that's the only way to ensure she will find a loving husband who won't cheat on her. That's another reason why you get the best women when contact girls first.
