QUESTION FOR MEN
What are the best and worst characteristics of Georgian women?

“Georgian women are very honest; I appreciate this characteristic very much. And also they are very devoted friends. But they do have big mouths.”
Ika, sailor, 21

“Georgian women are distinguished by having a strong character and a strong will. The best thing about them is they are very good cooks. But they need to be a little more laid back. Some of them have complexes. I want to see them smiling more.”
Giorgi, lecturer, 30

“Oh, I am crazy about Georgian women! I am not Georgian but I have a Georgian wife. I think they are the most beautiful and tender women in the world. I can’t name a single bad trait. They are perfect!”
Dmitry, doctor, 51

“I think that Georgian women are very devoted and warm, and pay lots of attention to their family. But in my opinion, sometimes they pay too much attention which is suffocating. I also don’t like that some women don’t pay attention to their appearance. Maybe for them, family is more important, but they should take care of how they look as well.”
Mamuka, economist, 32

“The Georgian women are the best women in the world. For most of them, family is most important. And they are quite good cooks and housewives.”
Otar, pensioner, 74

“The women in Georgia are very shy. Lately some of them are changing and becoming more animated and that’s good. I think their behavior needs to reflect 21st century standards.”
Levan, student, 22

“It’s difficult now to distinguish what's ‘Georgian’ and ‘non-Georgian’ in our women because of global influences. But I can name what used to be the characteristics of our women and what we we should strive to preserve in Georgian women– reserved, loving, kind, very understanding but that doesn't mean obedient—no way! And what's primary—a Georgian woman is very family-oriented, very attentive to their children and husband. The most negative, I would say is prolonged motherly care towards her children, which prevents them from developing their own independence in life."
Akaki, pensioner, 78

“A Georgian woman is beautiful, tender, honest, industrious and focused on family. You know, I cannot think of any very negative features of a Georgian woman.”
Avtandil, engineer, 50

“Many Georgian women are considered to be very devoted - and this means a lot. As for negatives, it depends on the individual woman. Maybe irrational jealousy, but any woman frankly, can possess these characteristics whether they’re Georgian or not.”
Giorgi, IT, 23
