What? No love for the women’s day?
That “international” in International Women’s Day is not a misnomer you know Women’s Day is totally international and in Russia they give women flowers. Not Valentine’s Day flowers — which in the Stripes women are expected to put out for. Not Mother’s Day flowers — which in the Stripes women are expected to give birth for. Women’s Day flowers. Because it is Women’s Day and you are a woman and you do not have to sleep with anyone or give birth to anyone to deserve flowers.
I am so marrying a Russian.

You don’t think that’s a fair trade? Geez, if that’s all it took to get a dozen roses, I’d be working my way through Camp Lejeune.
I love roses.
Hey, this is not about trading sexual favors for flowers this is about giving a cheer for Women.
I want to see some cheering and I want to see it now.
[You can wear a cute little cheerleading outfit for this Janie I know you want to.]
Rah Rah, Sis Boom Bah!
Go chickies!
(I’m actually still working on my post for IWD and BASD – It turned out to be quite a monster, so it’s late. :( )
Yay! Cheers! Yay!
I got no flowers for Women’s Day. Or Valentines. Or Mother’s Day.
Damn, I giving it up cheap.
I knew you’d come round in the end on the marrying Russians issue.
Hope you like short men, mind.
Yay for International Women’s Day. We deserve it, damn it.
Yay! Cheers for women! Yay!
What? No flowers? Kitty, flowers, right now.
Solnushka, um, how short are we talkng here?
OK, so I’m about 5 foot 7, or, what 170ish centmetres? On the tallish side for a woman in the UK. If I’m in a crowd I’m overtopped by a lot of the men here, but I’m rarely made to feel short by women.
In a crowd in Russia I always found myself significantly overtopped by a larger number of women than I’m comfortable with – I reckon that’s the five inch heels though – but alarmingly taller than rather too many men. And very few of their menfolk make me feel short. At best, most of them are my height.
That sort of short.
Taller? Than many men? At 5’7″?
This is very disturbing news.
Hence the overcompensation in flowers and chocolate and such though presumably.
Well I guess if everyone is short it does not seem short to locals but it would be very odd to me.
It does put slavic cheekbones on eye level where they can be more properly appreciated mind but…
Me, I like appreciating slavic cheekbones from below.
Wait, does that sound wrong?
*Sniggers*
It doesn’t sound wrong, it just sounds like me!
I think I’m a
badgood influence on you.;)
You definitely have me thinking harder about what I wear to the laundry room.
That’s a start Max, but you need to start thinking about what you don’t wear to the laundry room, too!
;)
LOL! JanieBelle, you crack me up.
Oh no, it’s a sham. Don’t marry a Russian based on that. You’ll be downing vodka all day.
Wait….
That might not be such a bad thing.
Ok. You’ve got my blessing.
PS JanieBelle is a pervert! I’m telling my mom!
Like she doesn’t already know…
I’m pretty sure the whole world knows at this point, Stiletto!
The sky is blue, water is wet, women have secrets, and JanieBelle is a perv. (But you say that like it’s a bad thing…)
;)
LOL — vodka kind of works for me. It is just the short factor that is some disturbing.
JanieBelle is a perv, but she is our perv. Let’s keep her.
Ok, but I’m going to steal her on occasion if I can!
(Sort of like raiding your neighbor’s house for goodies)!
I can share. Also if you are catting around with JanieBelle that will give me a chance to sneak that little outfit out for a spin.
I’m good with sharing.
but I guess you already knew that…
:lol:
I had a suspicion.
