Culture effects person's personality a lot. Sometimes two people from different countries or even different states are alliance for each other. I as one who had experience into two cultures (Russian and American) can clearly see this differences, spatially, in the familiar areas. One of them is differences between American and Russian women which can be visible in self steam, outlook and behavior. Of course in my essay I will use some generalization and you, my dear reader, should forgive me for it.

Let us open our discussion with women's outlook. This part divides into two categories: cloth and makeup. For Russian women both categories are important and necessary. It is cultural norm for women to look nice doesn't matter where are they at. At school, work, store and everywhere in the public women should look neatly and pretty. Skirts are every day cloth and make up is not something what Russian women use only for wedding and Halloween party.

No, they are saying so because they don't see me in the weekends. I just want to look like a female, I want men to like me like any other women. American women in their majority think that they are good enough even with out makeup and nice outfit, Russians don't.

"No body will love you if you won't live yourself". This rule of life American women learned very well. They know for sure that they not even a bit worst that man or other women. They don't let anybody hurt them physically or emotionally and thru that gaining my personal respect. Russian women in majority think that they are not god enough because of that people, spatially, men let themselves be disrespectful toward them.
