I have known a lot of east euro women and this has been true for most of them. In my experience they have a better understanding and a greater acceptance of gender roles. Most of them grew up in traditional families where men are supposed to provide for their families and women are supposed to take care of their men. Most of them grew up in poverty under communism and see themselves as equal (sometimes superior) to men. They want men to work hard, take control, and stand their ground. They expect to be respected, treated as equals, and taken care of. But at the same time they know that they are expected to be feminine, always look sexy, and take care of their men. When dealing with east euro girls you don’t need to over game them. The harder you try the less they will respect/want you. Just be confident, resolute, and don’t put up with their bullshit. Don't let their initial distance/coldness deter you.
