What is This

[Tutti 4]

Hi recently my husband to be moved here, but we are not married yet. I found this on an open laptop/Chromebook. It won't allow me to translate, but it doesn't look good. Was wondering if someone who speaks Russian could tell me what the video is about.

If you're not married yet - he's your fiancé, not your husband. 

 

Couldn't bring myself to watch the full video but ultimately it's 20 minutes of this very chauvinistic Russian-speaking guy generalizing American women. 

 

If my partner was watching this before coming to the US to be with me - I would definitely ask lots of follow up questions.

May I ask, how is he generalizing us? I assume he says we are fat and lazy? I tried to use Google translate, but it was daunting. I'd like to know what the video says, so I can have a full discussion as to why this was being viewed.

Among other things. Again - I didn't watch the entire video. Skipped through few parts.

If somebody with more time on their hands would like to watch and translate the whole thing to you - by all means.

Thank you for the time you have spent.

I watched some of it, I'm not a native Russian speaker but I understood maybe 80% of his speech, it was a very rambly video where be basically seemed to say that the attitude of American women towards infidelity is "generally negative" (duh, lol.) He talks about different anecdotal experiences he heard between families with this, he mentions mail order brides from Russia and kinda views American women negatively (sounds like he was talking about drunken white trash women like they're "typical" here.) He talks a bit about divorce in the US and how it can vary from state to state with alimony and whatnot. Gives some examples from his coworkers and stuff who went through divorce, etc. I feel like this guy hangs out with really low life people based on the examples he's talking about and he's trying to say that such people are "typical" for Americans. Says that some women in America might divorce just because they feel like it/"aren't happy" anymore, says some trashy women will leave perfectly good husbands, women are attracted to "bad boys".....yeah, lots of stereotyping based on the rather trashy people he seems to spend time around (in my opinion.)

 

Its hard to watch the video for me because he's rambling and mumbling, comes across as kinda arrogant and doesn't seem to have a point other than giving examples of trashy people he knows. ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯ I mean, it is true that divorce is pretty rampant in the US (but it is in Russia also, lol) so I guess I just don't really get the point of his video. He sounds like a typical boomer complaining that "back the USSR, women were better and more feminine"....stuff like that. I didn't watch or understand the entirety of the video, but this is the basic gist.

 

Oh as I understood the title of the video is "American Women and Infidelity #America #USA." I agree, fair game to ask your fiancé why he'd be interested in such a video. Could've been totally innocent, "just stumbled across this video randomly on YouTube" or maybe there's something more nefarious going on. Better to talk it out and see what's up.

Thank you for taking the time to brief me on this; sounds like the guy is a loser and I need to have a talk with someone.

Yeah, the YouTuber is fairly popular (seems like the video has 1.5 million views?) but a lot of Russians like to complain and have negative views on Americans, so that's probably why. My Russian husband had very negative views on Americans (he still kinda does sometimes, lol) but he doesn't view me as part of that, he's always seen me for the person I am and that's what matters. Open communication is always best in a relationship, hope you can work out everything between each other.

He might want to have a few words about what you were doing going through his Computer.

Well, for your information we share a computer and the page was open. Does that clarify the situation for you?

Husband to be=fiancé

He is already in the US but they are not married yet.

 

@TuttiDon't you trust your future husband enough to ask him what that video is about?

The OP never called her fiancé husband, why stating he's not her husband yet? She stated so herself.
