Why are Russian girls stereotyped as being slutty?

One of my best friends from uni is Russian, and even though weve graduated now and both have proper jobs, she says she's always being stereotyped as British guys by being "slutty" and having them assume she's "easy."

I think this unfair, she does dress a bit revealingly (a lot of stuff like leather skirts and bright lip stick) but she says they also do it because she says she's Russian. Why are Russian girls stereotyped like this and what can I tell her to do to combat the stereotype??

I didnt say she was slutty, I was saying that she does dress a bit revealingly sometimes (e.g. short skirt + leather high heeled boots for daytime)/wear a lot of obvious make up but that doesnt justify guys being like that :mad:

She is (and older too - she was a mature student and is 31) but she gets stereotyped like that more than most of the other women I know, why do guys stereotype Russians like this? Its really mean :frown:

I ashamedly watch porn, and I happen to notice a lot of Russian porn. Just tell her that people are just jealous that she's really pretty.

Largest adult film industry stems from Russia, and a lot of Brits develop the stereotype that all Russian women are the same.

Russian girls are extremely good looking and know it to be honest. British girls are generally ugly and bitchy so its a good way of trying to make the competition insecure. Its like Tyson Gay calling Usain Bolt a drug user in an attempt to get under his skin.

British guys, not girls. In fact she had this problem at uni too, she had to have mostly female friends like me and the rest of our group because the guys were often dicks for no reason and started spreading rumours.

It's a pretty well known stereotype to be honest but it is unfair

Hmm... In dress like that, but I don't see that as slutty. I think girls in the Uk don't make an effort with their looks so that might seem slutty to some people.

Well, why do you care so much? lol other types of women are stereotyped in worst ways
