Are women in Estonia typically small and light, or are the men just burly lumberjack-esque Russian Vikings?

The Baltics are sick.
I trained some Latvians in their country a while ago. Riga is fucking amazing in the summer, young women outnumber young men, they outnumber them by a lot if you subtract the men wearing deep-V tanks and capris, and a higher proportion of them are hot than our women in the US. They love us out of hatred of Russia, and you can get by with nothing but English. Not too expensive. I would go back in a heartbeat, and faster than that if I was single. |

here is a theory that having been fought over and conquered by the Germans,Danes,Swedes and Russians,all these warriors have represented their people's best DNA and a combination of that is why Estonian guys tend to be fairly big and fit and there tend to be more tall,thin women than average. There is also a vanity aspect. It's a cultural thing but it's not acceptable to roll out to the store in pajamas People of Walmart style so maybe girls just overall look a bit nicer. I tend to think Latvians are more attractive on average but I'm not gonna say that out loud
Poor Kaia Kanepi She tries her hardest but when the most famous -relatively speaking- Estonian women are Karmen Pedaru and Carmen Cass it's tough to have that sort of a look to live up to.Her last name means "marijuana" BTW: kanep=cannabis. When the Germans decided to give Estonians last names,they picked nouns; it's why you have family names of Fox,Squirrel,Moose,Apple,Owl,Night,Big Loaf of Bread,Little Loaf of Bread etc and a bunch of things ending in trees.
I don't think the "age like milk" thing is any more true than any place else but the stereotype is funny. Yes,there are old grandmas who look like little witches but I'll say,my SOs mom is 50 and still holding it together pretty well 
In the grand scheme, it's an utterly insignificant country but Estonians have a fierce independent and competitive streak combined with,maybe call it a sense of embarrassment or an inferiority complex of being so far behind Finland and Sweden developmentally that they tend to be highly self-deprecating and critical. I think that sense of nothing is good enough is what drives education and interest in technology though...and a lot of complaining about everything. There is very much a desire to be thought of as Northern European or Nordic rather than Eastern European and fair enough,there is far more in common with Finland than Bulgaria. If you watched the clip and wondered why Toomas Ilves speaks like an American,it's because he really is one. He was born in Sweden but grew up in the US. |

Kick in the Cock is the turret behind the flags 
Kiek in de Kök is low German for "peek in the kitchen",their slang for watch towers. The name has lasted since the Hanseatic League owned Tallinn. The 22 years since independence from the USSR is the longest Estonia has been self governing,ever. Barring yet another annexation,in another 20 years I predict everyone will speak American accented English or nobody will speak at all due to simply texting,or whatever replaces it
