Norwegians consider all Russian women prostitutes
Norwegian sociologists came to a very strange conclusion - their compatriots perceive Russian women in skirts and dresses as ... prostitutes. Even if the women themselves do not give any reason for such thoughts.
A researcher from Norway, Tatyana Vara, wrote an entire doctoral dissertation, in which she notes that Russian women living in Norway are forced to exercise some caution in choosing clothes. This is necessary in order not to attract too much attention of local residents.
Seeing a Russian woman in a dress or skirt, the Norwegians rush to her with unambiguous sentences. Moreover, it is not only and not so much about the numerous African and Asian migrants who are known to everyone for their “attachment”, but about the Norwegians themselves - sort of like Europeans and kind of like cultural people. Tatyana Vara interviewed many Russian women who had long emigrated to Norway, and almost all of them admitted that they faced unpleasant attitude in labor collectives precisely because of clothes. Russian women have to abandon the usual wardrobe, if only to avoid disapproving views from colleagues - both men and women.
Anne Terese Lauterington, Director of the KVINNEFORSK Institute for the Study of Women at the University of Tromsø, having studied the doctoral dissertation of a woman researcher, came to the conclusion that modern Norwegian society is not very tolerant. The point here is not at all the clothes, since European women wear dresses and skirts, but in a biased attitude towards visitors. The values that the Norwegian government has been planting for decades do not work. Norway is friendly to Somali migrants and Syrian refugees, but not to Russians. Although our countries almost never opposed each other, in Norway they are very afraid of Russians.
If a Russian man, then he’ll be a gangster, if a woman is a prostitute. The cultivation of such stereotypes is also promoted by the Norwegian "yellow press", which specializes in all kinds of "horror films" about Russia and the Russian people. If African and Asian refugees are customary to be spared, then Russians are more likely to find a cold and unfriendly attitude.
In Norway, as in some other countries of Western Europe, modern everyday women's fashion is really not distinguished by sophistication. Scandinavian women prefer to dress modestly in the unisex style. After all, the same media are very actively discussing the topic of sexual harassment, which allegedly affects those women who dress too frankly. Frank clothes mean both skirts and dresses. Some Scandinavian (both Swedish and Norwegian) human rights activists have gone so far as to urge women to dress in "unisex" so as not to provoke numerous migrants. It’s easier to make your women change their clothes than to prevent foreign criminals.
