New York Times- War Shatters Dating Scene for Women in Ukraine
While the pursuit of love might seem secondary to dealing with missile attacks, power outages and food shortages, many Ukrainians say they need romantic relationships to help them cope with the trauma of living in a nation at war.
For women, the problem is particularly acute.

Geez. What’s the problem here? I mean, there are at least 5 Nigerian Princes for each one of them lonely broads.
And here I thought the Ukrainians were on the verge of winning, and Trump was a fool for just wanting people to stop dying. Guess some intellectual adjustments are in order.

What’s the problem? Isn’t this war all about “International norms”? aka LGBTQueer “rights”? So all these women should just partner off with other women! In fact one of the partners can transgender themselves into a dog-masked man? We’re told this is just natural anyway. That lots of animals go gay hen there’s a shortage of the opposite sex. Right.
What a homophobic, transphobic article from the NYT.
Come to America, find love on public transit.
Ohhhh … I think you’re confused. The only love she’ll find on American public transit is a bad case of summer-COVID. She is likely to contract the painful symptom called: “razor blade throat”
I just read that in a helpful article about how we all still need to get COVID boosters.
It’s amazing to me that those public health a-holes are -still- pushing it. Talk about chutzpah. It’s like they’re begging us to rise up and crush them.
“Thousands of men killed and maimed in battle. Women hardest hit.”
I noticed that too. Poor ladies.
Join the Army. Plenty of men there. As a bonus, you get to defend your country and prove you’re just as good as any man.
l went to a uke dating site equipped with some 1/2 dozen freebie comments before the ‘points’ expired. didnt get to ask how in BLAZES do l have a ‘date’ from 8,000 miles away? the one l was msging proved it was live, too.
and no one wound up stripping for all to see!!! wheeeee!!!!
also full disclosure, l was looking for ‘romance’ as well aka we get hitched she pays me $$$$$$$$ up front and we exchange xsmas cards. then her bf gets in on similar arrangement, theyre happy, lm happy, his ‘wife’ is happy and who knows, they introduce their ‘spouses’ we hit it off, splurge some of the funds on a nice trip to . . . . . . hmmm.
anybody know the ropes here?
Is this code for Uke women looking for North American men?
Learning from the Russian chicks, eh?
Then … a month later, her brother and real boyfriend show up and shake down the poor American schlepp for cash and his new wife disappears. Sucker!!!
If I were dating today, before the third date I’d hire a P.I. to learn everything possible about the woman. And BTW … I’d NEVER date a woman from Canada … unless she were a FOK … friend of Kate
ha ha ha thats more wht l was thinking it could be k, thus the notion is toally discarded when my pension kicked in.
still didnt get an answer about the 8,000 mile date. bill gates described dates he had watch the same movie different coastlines then do a video call discuss the movie.
l made another joke to day.
in chemistry class in high school teacher described the early chemists referred to the state of ether, they couldnt conceive light could travel in a vacuum. a mysterious substance which role is to provide a platform for propagation of light. its out there, we’re not sure how it works.
a fanciful bit of fiction. not sure how it works or where it is.
occurred to me we have it now. its all digital and its called the internet.
I have Ukrainian women send me e-mails all the time. So, they are real then.
The old joke about the NYT is that the day after the world gets hit by an earthquake-destroying meteor, their headline will be “World ends, women and children hardest hit”.
Never mind the Ukrainian combat vets with PTSD or missing limbs from the fighting, the real struggle is the women having less dating options.
