It so happened that life threw me to the other end of our former immense country, called the Soviet Union. I had to study and live in a student city, populated mainly by young people from third world countries, specifically Arabs. Seeing people of strange, in my opinion, origin, I was terribly scared. The first natural reaction was the desire to run wherever my eyes look. After three years spent in this environment, and we had to exist side by side, I have the right to assert that the tales that the Western media often stuff with us are pure lies. Unfortunately, we did not have girls, there were only young people and men. My respect for this people lasted for years.
Myth 1. They are dirty.
Pure lie. Tell me, can I wash myself in the shower for half an hour twice a day and stay dirty?
Myth 2. They are uneducated.
Yes, where is it possible for our average person to understand that, knowing two or three languages, it is impossible to remain uneducated in principle. By the way, it was the "uneducated" Arabs who taught me Russian, Dostoevsky. Their respect, even the veneration of our classic is immeasurable. After asking several times questions on topics of interest to me, in response I heard: "And you read Dostoevsky." I had to read. I am ashamed.
Myth 3. They are aggressive and sexually preoccupied.
Utter nonsense. There is no more aggression in them than in representatives of any other people. And I’ll argue about concern. I have never noticed any other behavior than that of our men. Like a girl - they will look after in the most common ways. But for sweet songs to be sung or mountains of gold promised from scratch, this was not so.

Myth 4. They treat women badly.
Islam is based on respect for women. Therefore, in any normal family of a boy this is taught cheating. The attitude is actually caring and respectful. It would be for our men.
Myth 5. They hate Europeans.
I don’t know what about the Europeans, but they really love Russians. They have been embedded in them since childhood: Russia is the first friend and assistant in a critical situation. I want to note that the relationship is not limited to one benefit. They truly respect our way of life, our traditions, our language and our literature.
Myth 6. They hate Christians and pray all the time.
Tell me how a person who knows for sure that his religion came from ours can hate Christianity. And they taught me that. For example, I did not know that Jesus among the Muslims is a prophet. And about the prayers. They may be praying, but if they do, it is so quiet that no one sees. So what, we also periodically ask God for help.
Myth 7. They are cunning and deceitful.
Too nonsense. Our men will be more cunning and more savvy.
Myth 8. They always wear national clothes.
Well yes, that's right. If we consider jeans, t-shirts and sneakers as the national form of clothing.
