I love Ukraine and will continue to raise my family here.  Women are feminine, men are masculine, people are smart — Ukraine has the best IQ per dollar in the world.  For me, a software entrepreneur, this is great.  Ukraine has a coherent culture.

A few months ago, we visited a restaurant with my visiting in-laws, and musicians came in playing Ukrainian folk songs.  Most people knew the words, and began singing along. The few obvious tourists seemed to enjoy the spectacle.  When the band leader shouted for only the women to sing the next verse, and then for only the men to sing the one after that, there was absolutely no confusion about who was which sex, and no anger over the expression of a gender binary.

The songs were about love and courtship, and suffering repression, and freedom.

Slava Ukrajini!
