Like many cultural stereotypes, these Russian ones - however exaggerated they might be - have at least some basis in reality. But they certainly don't tell the whole story. R ...

Anyone who knows more about the travails Britney Spears than the development of Greco-Romano civilization supports that obvious observation.
