Lol, do they pave the way for probable future admission of some of these states into Russian Federation, like let's say Alaska? :))))LIVLIVS MAXIMVShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12092771721076216259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35604308.post-10321215409242824682009-06-12T06:22:13.915-07:002009-06-12T06:22:13.915-07:00Haha, oh boy Expatresse.

The story about sex ed? Seems the average Russian parent doesn't want any nasty ol' sex ed sucking the joy and romance out of a relationship. Never mind that Russia has epidemic rates of HIV/AIDS in the under-25 crowd. Now it seems we find out most young Russians don't have the basics of sex education . . . dare I say it (here, where you get to deal with any residual flak), but might this lack of "knowledge" equate to a partial, at least, explanation of why Russian women seem to enjoy the company of oft times dorky Western men? Could it be Russian men might not know female anatomy and how it works?<br /><br />I'm just sayin' . . .<br /><br />But I digress. The "No American Pork" thing is clearly to limit the foreign imports.The Expatressehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00127602680470789727noreply@blogger.com
