Russia's best-selling newspaper has called Manchester a city of "fat women" and "debauchery".
The article in Komsomolskaya Pravda criticised the city's gay district, saying it's "disgusting" people of the same sex openly kiss and hold hands.
Columnist Alisa Titko told readers it was "such a pleasure there are no such gay streets in Moscow".
She said it shows people are wrong to say Russia should be "more tolerant" about "non-traditional" sexuality.
"In Manchester there is a whole part of the city for gay people," she said. "There is even a place there saying Gay Village.
"In the evenings gays and lesbians are having fun not only inside but also outside and they do not hide their feelings."She urged readers to "remain Russian", saying: "Let's start normal families. Let's give birth in legal marriages. And don't let's mix love and debauchery."
She added the rising number of people "with non-traditional sexual orientation" in Russia was because "their mothers did not beat them enough when they were kids".
It comes days after Germany's leader Angela Merkel again put pressure on Russia's president to help protect gay rights.
Alisa Titko also claimed it was no surprise Manchester's men "become gay", because the city's women "are fat, not sexy" and "simply disgusting to men".
She wrote: "The fat hangs from the stomach, sides, and doesn't fit in their jeans. In clubs, they still pull on tight leggings and mini dresses

Ive seen some corkers from manchester, i tell you michelle keegan , may foote and a lady on a train i winked at ( she moved seats but i didnt follow her as im no pest). It is strange to have a gay area coming from stoke as we arent use to openly gayness but each to their own i say.

Don't worry about Russia, many folk in areas of Manchester alone will be thinking that.
