Ikr. We used to have some bizarre notions about Russia and Russian women... We thought they wore boots like in the picture, and looked worse than the judge on the right. In many cases the woman in the center, is closest to the truth.
I love the site https://ok.ru but it is somewhat difficult to navigate !
I find google 'translate this page' is very good
and the comments beneath the pictures are fascinating - especially from people recalling the soviet era
If your interested an example would be about the value of one ruble

(Give it a few seconds to bring up the picture of the bank note and click on translate symbol at the far right of the address bar - Only scroll in the centre panel)
Good luck :~)
