I am a little over 30, some of the stereotypes used in this test are much older than me and absolutely irrelevant. I am 100% Russian. I love Russia and its people. Yet, many Russians criticize things in Russia and look for a change... Many of us are far from those old stereotypes some of which have never even existed and are the plain product of ill imagination and shortsighted perception... One more thing I cannot keep silent about... the question about "laundry in the bathtub"... gosh, the first time I had to do such laundry was in the U.S.!! I have been a student, lived in different states, renting apartments... I live in Russia and in the Netherlands, but only in the U.S., I have not had the "privilege" to have my own washing machine. This is absolutely insane for me. Every apartment in Russia has a washing machine. No matter it is your's or you rent it... it does not cost that much. Yet, in the U.S. it is truly a privilege for which your landlord will add a hundred dollar extra to your monthly rent... I have recently watched a video about portable washing machines where they were talking about having a washing machine as a privilege of those who own their homes. Seriously?! It cost little money to install a washing machine in the bathroom or kitchen, yet in the U.S. it is a privilege and many have to use public laundromats as a reminder of them not being successful enough... This is absolutely ridiculous and wild for me. Since public machines are unacceptable for me, a bathtub is the only option... We (Russians) care about hygiene and cannot understand how something like a washing machine can be public in our modern world in a developed country!!!!

"23%, Russian" my ass. I'm mostly Irish and Russian. All of this is just stereotypical bs that Americans made up. Whenever I'm talking to people on the phone that only speak Russian and I have to speak Russian my brother always come in my room and say some stereotypical s---. "Vodka, vodka, vodka. Babushka, babushka, babushka. Soviet Russian. Commies, etc etc.". I can't even go out of the house and speak Russian without my brother or my Dad mocking me. These stereotypes literally make s--- irritating. I wish my family wasn't so American. It's gross. I need to move. And wtf is with the washing laundry in the bathtub bs. no one does that

Larken, I understand how you feel about all of this and I would be offended if someone else offended ones culture- but I found what you said about Americans offensive because I am part American, but honestly I would agree upon how you feel about them because people should be respected no matter what culture they are. And I am also part Russian as well while my family doesnt understand me either because none of them got that heritage while I was the only one passed on with a special gene from a long line of ancestry, yet a lot of my family were Germans giving me a strong bloodline of German but in conclusion, people like you deserve to be treated fairly, and not just treated like they just an item. Anyone like you or others from different cultures should have a right to speak up. So I appreciate your concern for the stereotypes that are put on Russians. -Love for Russia and all Russians

WTF? So just because I don't drink vodka every day and don't murder people for a sport it crosses out the fact that I was born in Russia, raised in Russia, live in Russia, and my whole family is Russian?!

"You are 11% Russian!
You're so un-Russian, you must be an American. You probably rent Cold War movies and enjoy them with no sense of irony."
Very stupid test! I'm Russian.
I hate vodka. "Where is the questions about bears and balalayka?"

In all fairness Russian is only my ethnicity (my main ethnicity) and not my nationality but these questions and answers were a bit outdated and stereotypical/ignorant.
Did a Slavaboo make this?

I live in Russia, and have lived there for my whole life. Some of this was accurate, some, just ridiculous. , . , , .

Some questions asking me of the Soviet Union and WW2 and if I drink Vodka like wtf, I mean i've tried Vodka but thats so s---ty of how this quiz results in stereotypes to result you to see if your Russian. Wtf

I was only 9%. It says I'm so un-Russian that I must be American (Of course i'm American. A proud one, too), and that I rent Cold War movies (yep) and watch them with no sense of irony (what does that even mean?)...
Mr Sark1 -
52 per cent Russian, though I'm Russian... haha, is that connected to that I'm a 40 per cent American Patriot (according to the another quiz)? haha
an' never been to america =)
But, well, that quiz is strange, there were plenty of times when I couldn't get the real answer for me.

As far as I know I am not russian. 33% russian though huh? I doubt any quiz can tell you what you really are. i scored higher than people that live in Russia? no, that proves that the quiz has some out of whack stereotypes on what a Russian really is. Russians are better than how they are perceived.

I'm Russian. My grandsires were Russian. I live in Russia.
The test result:
You are 27% Russian!Who are you kidding? Just because you took a summer language course in Petersburg doesn't make you a Russian.
WTF?

WTF I'M GERMAN 100% PUREBLOODED BERLINER.
My Grandmother didn't endure countless years of communist rule just for a internet quiz calling me 88% Russian!
-
It said I'm 68% Russian and I know I am 100% Filipino and this crap (Quiz) is telling me I'm 68% Russian wow I mean I don't hate Russians but still HOW!? I don't even like vodka
-
You are 0% Russian!
You're so un-Russian, you must be an American. [Indeed I'm an American.] You probably rent Cold War movies and enjoy them with no sense of irony. [I've never watch those movies.]
To be honest if I were a russian I would be ashamed of being a russian.
-
Youd be ashamed of who you are? I am proud of all the hardship and all the struggles that my people have had to go through in the years. ASHAMED? Its not about your nationality, your ethnicity, your religion, your race, or anything... all that matters is being a good person who does the right thing when necessary and treats others the way they should be treated, with respect. I don't drink vodka, I dont even drink alcohol. I like simple things, I like tea, making other people smile, and puppies... but I guess because I'm Russian, everyone else in the world has to hate me, yes? It dont matter how much respect I give to others, being Russian is enough to make others frown upon me and make me feel like a worthless, evil, peasant... unfortunately for you, being Russian encourages pride, integrity, and culture. I am VERY PROUD of my blood and will never change this...

Of course I am Russian. But I hate these stereotypes that we are all murderers and love vodka. (Though I do love me some good vodka). I didnt have the experience or privilege of a real washing machine until I was twelve and we moved to Israel. My family are proud Russians, but we are also proud Jews. Stop putting stereotypes on people you dont know.

I am 43% Russian apparently but I live in Norway. My behavior could be categorized as if I am behaving with Slavic etiquette but I would not say so.
