Yeah I lived my late 20's abroad and we used to take bets whenever a single expat woman would move into town on how long she'd last. She was used to getting attention in the US/UK/etc but where we were in Eastern Europe and the local women were just stunning. I think the longest one lasted 6 months, and the shortest was about a month before moving back to where they got some attentoin.

Wait. So women would quit their job because local men didn't notice them?   That's hard to believe.  Maybe it was the weather, unfriendliness of the people and communist vibe?[/quote]

No.  Women eventually quit their jobs because they found the social scene (in this case, in Moscow, where in the nineties I had a front-row seat to the rise and fall of expat royalty) very lacking for them, while the guys were having a ball due to oversupply of women who were a) beautiful beyond what they could find in the U.S., and b) available.   Expat women were simply discarded.

I remember a column in The Exile, a funny little tabloid in Moscow run by two American guys, by a woman writing as Mistress Suki.  The first entry started like this:

"Six months in Moscow, and I've been reduced to eating pussy."[/quote]
