      Hmm, i’ve never seen a picture of Lenin’s wife but after seeing her mask, i don’t think i’ll even consider looking it up on Google. She looks terrible.

        Yeah– she was kinda hot when she was young. Let that be a warning to you young men– the prettier they are when they are young, the uglier they will be when they are old.

          Isn’t it a bit of a Russian thing? When I lived there I noticed incalculable amounts of hot young Russian girls but very few hot older ones.

              No wonder there are so many russian gals for sale as brides to US men. No russian man wants them, they are too wise and seek USA girls.

              Krupskaya IS ugly on that picture. But “Russian women age fast”? She was 70 years old! And she is DEAD. Obviously she wasn’t in her best looks that day. *g*

      Some interesting information on here. Slightly off topic but I am so excited !. I saw Cats The Musical for the first time and the music and the dancing is incredible. It is an emotional journey that all the audience gets involved with !. ‘Cats’ will make you laugh and smile and touch certain places inside your heart. Everyone left the theater singing, delighted and uplifted. If you get a chance to go and see ‘Cats’ I really recommend it.
