Kumis- Fermented milk from a horse. Very rich, pungent. Not very popular w/Westerners. Mongolians drink it too.

According to Yasha Levine of the eXile, Ksenia Sukhinova, who was Miss Russia 2007 and Miss World 2008, is of Tatar stock.

milk from a horse is sperm. Milk is from a mare, isn't it? So, are you saying they actually drink horse's sperm?? God almighty, mercy on their souls.

[Virtus]

horse is gender neutral you "bigot racist sexist die cis-privileged scum"

ok.. stallion is male, mare is female over three years old, filly is a female under three , gelding is a castrated male, foal is a baby horse usually under one y.o.

no no one milks stallions. well, some people do, but that's best left maybe for the History of Russia thread, Catherine the great something rather.. anyhoo

Ok.

Question:

What if you meet a Russian girl, but suspect via features that she is Tatar and try to read it cold?

If you guess wrong, would that blow up in your face? Would a Russian girl that is not Tatar, take offense?

Or would she (generally speaking) see that as you know what's up, because you would even know something so obscure about her country?

Obviously, if you guess correct, I would guess you are on easy street.

Thoughts?

Gmanifesto, do this : casually say : "I love Moscow, by the way, your family is from Moscow or from the provinces? Oh, they are from Kazan!? Oh great, I heard Tatar food is wonderful, and you have a splendid old palace somewhere in Crimea right? Yes, yes, so I heard. Hey, come to think of it, what about going out to a Tatar restaurant tonight? We'll drink mare's milk and have fun!"

It's very difficult to tell by appearance. Russia has lots of nationalities, even within the Turkic group. In the European part alone there are Tatars, Chuvashi, Bashkirs, etc. I know Slavic girls who look Georgian, and Azerbaijanis who look Slavic. There was so much inter-ethnic mixing over the past 500 years that it's impossible to tell. It isn't like Estonia or Latvia where the Russian population was imported during a short period of time and look completely different to the locals.

There is an easy way to identify them though... Tatar names sound nothing like Russian ones: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tatar_name

In Kazan it isn't be a big deal for a 'clumsy foreigner' to mistake a Russian for a Tatar. It could be a problem in St. Petersburg or Moscow though.

[DaveR]

The most common Tatar girl names (that I've heard) are: Albina, Alfia, Alsu, Chulpan, Dana, Dinara, Elvira, Farida, Galia, Renata, Zemfira

[Virtus]

oh yeah. Zamfira is Tatar

[InternationPlayboy]

I've never actually banged a girl from "tataristan," nor had I ever even heard of it until I googled it after reading this post, but I've banged a girl that looks a lot like these girls you posted. She was from Kazakhstan. She was a Russian/Asian mix. Pretty sexy and she was mad cool. A little dumb though.

I've been on that regional nationalities flag collecting mission long before any of you guys knew there is such a thing as Tatars and thought Russia is all the same ethnic population all over. Mostly because I've always been an avid traveller and an anthropologist buff, so I don't only count the flags of a country, I actually count each nationality within a country which has its own language and culture as a separate flag. It helps that I am genuinely interested in these local cultures, so I dont have to fake it. Tatarstan is an autonomous republic within Russia (one of many by the way).

And to answer he question, yes I got my Crimean Tatar flag last summer, and unlike most of you mine was 100% pure Tatar really sweet boobs, nominally they are muslim yet she ate pork with me in the restaurant and obviously shagged before getting married. Tatars are Eurasian race Turkic language speaking (so the pure ones have slight asian features) the one who are blonde and European looking are so because they have Russian/Ukrainian blood and are not pure tatars anymore.
Zemfira is not Tatar, she is Bashkir (another Turkic ethnicity)

Don't want to turn this into a Bulgarphilia thread, but the Tatars are said to be the Volga Bulgars that remained in nowadays Tatarstan that were taken over by the Golden Horde, and that underlying Mongoloid delicateness, can be seen in a lot of the girls. They're Muslims. On the other hand, we have the Chuvash, a Christian people, whom are also said to be the descendents of Volga Bulgars, but they apparently weren't dominated by the Golden Horde to the same extent as the Tatars, and are more European looking. Both groups speak a Turkic language -- Tatar and Chuvash -- respectively.

On the other hand, we have Bulgaria proper in south-eastern Europe, which is said to have been founded by the Bulgars that left the Volga region in nowadays Russia in 681 A.D. and I think there is a definite relatedness in phenotypes amongst the three republics despite the distance that separates them. Bulgarians have blood from the Bulgars, from the local Thracians, which most Romanians are descended from apparently, and the Slavs that were in the region at the time, which is quite the genetic mix. In the end, blood is thicker than water. It's my dream to travel to Kazan and inject my Bulgarian man-juice into as many females as possible. Cheboksary, as well. Da jivee Bulgaria!

Hey, awesome, another Bulgarian here , I thought I was the only one. kak si, pich?

You are an innovator.

Bust out some cultural nuances with Tatar Girls.

So far we only have Horse Milk.

Hell, with all the EE and FSU Players on here I would think we would have a huge list by now.

I stand corrected. She was born in Bashkiria though, thus my mistake.

Elaborate a bit, G. Got the Tatar flag in Montreal? After how many dates/meetings? How old? In other words, drop us a mini-datasheet, holmes.
