OK. I think the Ukraine War may change the whole attitude and image of many Slavic women since well they are bravely fighting and dying alongside men. My mother-in-law (A Belarusian) is one of the hardest working people I know and holds an executive position in Belarus which she has held for going on 20 years. My wife (Belarusian\Ukrainian) is probably the strongest woman I know (no, she was not a mail-order bride). She maintains her feminine side while still being assertive, intelligent and strong. And, she converted me to the Orthodox Church. We are married 21 years in about 2 weeks. Personally, I wasn't looking for a Slavic wife, she just kinda dropped in my lap while a student working the summer at the Jersey Shore. I see these strong women here in the Ukraine War and I can only agree with you (as for the Russians ones, meh).
