Hiring Female Bodyguards In Russia

Moscow Times reported today on bodyguards in Russia, and more specifically on hiring hot female bodyguards in Russia. The article starts:Olga Korolyova is a diminutive 1.64 meters tall. She has shiny blond hair. If you get too close when she’s at work, she’ll immobilize you with two blows. “I like to defend the weak,†the bodyguard said at a recent training class. As another participant lunged at her with a plastic knife, Korolyova cracked the assailant’s arm and slammed her to the floor. Retreating, knife in hand, Korolyova triumphantly fired a fake gun at her attacker.
This has long been a highly-regarded profession in Russia. From the Moscow Times in 2005:
Now in their second year, the security awards are known as the ZUBR (for za ukrepleniye bezopasnosti Rossii, or for the strengthening of the security of Russia) and are billed rather grandly as one of the new “civil society initiatives used to cooperate with the government in the fight against new threats.†The word zubr means bison, so all the award winners went home with a large metal bison.
More and more executives in Russia are starting to hire protection, which can cost $1500/week and up. And more and more women are starting to enroll in bodyguard school, not surprising when you consider that in Soviet day, supposedly no man would sleep with a woman who couldn’t disassemble an AK-47 in under a minute. It’s a wild world over there, and if you’re in the business of oil or arbitrage, why not hire someone who can protect you and look good while doing it?

I am very pleased to see more positive writing about females in the industry, and yes why not have someone guarding you that looks good too, it can be far more effective if you are able to move unobserved or unsuspected as the bodyguard in some situations. It is a hard industry to get into, with the good old boys club in North America, far easier to get your foot in the door in Europe. It will be a great day when everyone starts thinking that not all bodyguards need to be the size of a line backer in order to be effective
