Love / Polish women are known for their beauty, but men are so ugly (most of).. [250]

ha ha ha what other crap can you possibly come up with?

Thats not crap Justyna, its a sad truth, many of the Poles who came from poverty stricken areas of Poland especially women would and did anything just to hook up with a foreigner as a means of social advance.

there's another Polish w*nker here just like you and i got an email from him a some time ago with the same sort of accusations based on absolutely nothing more than your idiotic assumptions

If my assumptions were idiotic you wouldnt be so angry about them, i'm not accusing you of anything too, you left your poor town where you had no future and found a better life, i wish you all the best i'm merely pointing out that your poor and backwater background inflluences you view of Poles, Poland and your current life.

i date Brits cos it makes me feel better about myself

I'd put it another way, dating Brits lets you detach yourself from your experience back home which you would prefer not to remember.

those Polish girls you met actually say they are dating foreigners cos it 'elevates' their social status?

No one would ever admit to it, just take a look at yourself how angry and agressive you became at the mere suggestion that your outlook and relationship are the way they are because you escaped poverty.

i prefer British guys cos they're nicer and more attractive to me, more appealing and with better taste, better dressed, more polite and easy going. why is it such a crime for a Polish woman to date someone foreign

Who says its a crime ? I dont really mind or care i'm merely pointing out that in your eyes as with most lower classes of our society that migrated to UK dating or marrying a foreigner is seen as an elevation in social status, back in your town people would speak of you with envy.

You can of course claim all of the above but i believe otherwise, the poorer immigrants have a very simplistic outlook on life that boils down to becoming more british than british themselves which includes mandatory marriage to an englishman, its motivated by materialistic and social factors rather than emotional ones, in other words you're dating a guys passport rather than the man himself.

not some super rich businessman, i'm not after his money or his social status

Its a bit more complicated, women of the afformentioned group are after men simply because they're local, just dating an englishman regardless if he's a drunk or a millionaire is seen as a social advancement both by girls such as you and by people back home in your little towns and villages, emotions and fancies play a completely secondary role here.

now go laugh with your fiancee about what a stupid b*tch she is some more, i'm sure forum members will have a laugh at that too.

Justyna if i post something about my fiancee thats because its me, i love her and she is professionally acomplished in a way you could dream of, as a person and a woman she is the best thing that happened to me since cold beer and objectively a bloody awesome girl so i'd appreciate if you did not shit on my lawn in the future in this way.

I realise the topic is sensitive but the behaviour you and so many Poles abroad display exists and is a problem and an issue stemming from your humble background, this is where all the myths of polish women being easy or promiscous come from.

you really think so low of yourself that you assume any guy other than Polish will be a better choice?

I'm not talking about objective facts, i'm talking about the way you and others like you perceive life on immigration, because Poles remind you of backwater home you avoid them.

As for thinking low of myself, my ego is only slightly smaller than my hypocricy and linguistic skills :)

Love / Polish women are known for their beauty, but men are so ugly (most of).. [250]

probably but at least now we can see the two sides of the story. and as they say, behind every bitch there's a man who made her that way ;).

Well my fiancee is an awfull bitch since birth and ceirtanly not by my own doing ( she read this topic and agrees with me wholeheartedly ).

Also Justysias if we're at a topic of Poles in UK maybe my four months there were not enough but i couldnt identify my countrymen by smell, i could however tell if a girl was polish by the way she dresses, its like polish women shed all pretence to class, style and dress like a cheap ( insert term never used towards women ).

For some reason my posts have been removed when nothing insulting was in them, this adressed both polish stinkers and village girls AND explains the would be promiscousity of polish women abroad and your views on Poles.

Poor polish men and women, typically from small towns and villages having a poor background leave for UK seeing this as a sort of social elevation, polish girls will date foreign guys not because they fancy them but because they're foreign, for them its some sort of a social advance.

You scoff at male Poles because you hate your connection with Poland, like many people who migrate to UK in search of a better life from some podunk hole in Poland you want to forget the town with 5 houses and 6 streets, the indignity of an underpaid job at a cheap liquor store and all things polish.

Thats why you look down on polish men, thats why many Poles abroad generally look down on Poles home, after all the poverty back home you feel elevated and superior and in your eyes any foreigner is downright better, i had a girl working for us in London who had just the same view on the matter as you and saw dozens of polish women dating foreigners because of the social status they'd aquire in their own eyes.

I also agree that young women from the Uk and other western countries have become so overweight it is hard to see their real beauty, and behave more like men than women, which I am sure can be offputting for many men.

His situation may be different than it's thought. I think he don't deserve this much offense. Negative comments in this thread is more like prejudice.

Culture and religion aside, if i was put in his situation i'd have a good moment digesting the problem then have an honest talk with either my folks or my lady and stick with one side instead of trying to eat a cake and shit on a cake.

Let it be so - be good Cossack who value freedom don't judge people based on their position, money and origin. Poland is good for you and don't want to conquer your land. Indpendent democratic Ukraine living in peace with Poland is what we need.

Why do you keep lying to the man! Our military is drawing up plans even now.

Listen, Sokrates. what I found in your link is that he was born in Subotiv, near Chyhyryn, Ukraine. His father belonged to a clan (whatever "clan" means). So? He had a coat of arms from some Polish noble origin. So? His father was Ukrainian as well as he himself.

That is correct, his father had a polish coat of arms whiich he couldnt not have had being Ukrainian since they used different coats of arms :)

just stating the obvious, Polish girls don't let themselves go when they come here but guys for some reason do. i'm dating a foreigner cos i think Polish guys are overrated and i am truly sick of them.

See ? I'm not only smart and modest but a good judge of character :) Bet a months pay you're from a little town and a poor family too :)

the ones back in Poland "snorting down their noses" on fellow Poles who went abroad

Oh i'm not looking down on you as an "abroad Pole" i just look down on as a unlikable stuck up girl.

i only get bitchy when i see some stuck up Polak who thinks he knows better than everyone else.

Temper temper... did i hit a nerve ?:)

by the way very nice of you to talk crap about Polish women when you're getting married to one, but that's another trait of Polish guys - nice and obedient when with their woman, slagging her off when she's not there just cos you're too scared to tell her what you don't like about her. you are such a typical Polish guy it makes me wanna laugh.

Well then you be happy with your non typical brit and i'll be a typical polish guy marrying a typical polish girl, and because we're both educated confident and well off people we do not need to validate our sense of self worth by dating foreigners like a girl hailing from a deep province in eastern Poland would :)

Leonardo da Vinciewicz and Frigosz Nitszchewkij were Poles. "Abdank" family? I think Chmelnyckyj was your beloved German. Yes, that's

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bogdan_Chmielnicki

Any further questions as to Chmielnickis ethnicity ?:)

Bogdan was an ethnic Pole? What is this a joke?

Correct, he was born a son of Michał Chmielnicki of the Abdank family, how can you even discuss the history of your country without such basics ?

So, if Cossacks fought to protect their religion as well as many other irreputably important things - like FREEDOM

Actually Cossacks fought only to keep the Poles from decreasing the register.

means they couldn't be even close Polish. Cossacks are pure Ukrainians

So the polish peasants who started uprisings against polish nobles were also not polish because they fought for freedom ?:)

Cossacks were not Ukrainians,

You do realise that for example Bogdan Chmielnicki was an ethnic Pole ? Cossacks were a social and political class of the region, they came from all ethnic groups, Poles, Russians, Ruthenians ...

Kijiws'ka Rus is not our ancestry

Obviously not since there is no real continuity between the two, its like Jews would claim that they're Sumerian just because they're connected to Sumers.

Also Nathan this is just an internet forum you're taking all this wayyyy too personaly.

another pussy whipped Polak who can only express his bitterness over a failed relationship with a Polish woman by slagging off all Polish women.

What are you, some kind of a warring feminist or plain dumb ? As for my relationship its failed so spectacularly that we're engaged and getting married.

saw about five Polish guys in the shop today and God they looked well rough. what is the matter with you, guys? it's like once they escape their mother's or wife's nest they turn into complete slobs. greasy hair, smelly feet, dirty clothes... yuck.

Why do i get the feeling that you're dating a foreigner and suffering from a typical "a Pole abroad" syndrome and snorting down your nose on fellow Poles ?:)

Of course your reply proves my point about general bitchiness of polish girls

ugliness aside, a bar of soap and some shampoo could do wonders to ones appearance (once they learn how to use them)!

Wouldnt they Justysia ?:)

Actually Kieven Rus was a well developed country, It's not that It has very much in common with Ukraine but still more than with any other nation.

Correct but still it wasnt quite as developed as the polish tribes at the time, neither was it connected with Ukraine, you could argue that they were ethnic Russians since at the time it was all Ruthenians, same cultural and religious pool.

the same can be said about Poland during the partition and other times of occupation - with the Soviet one included until 1989, so by saying the the Ukrainians are really a young nation, by comparison you are saying that Polish is not. Very clever but it is not gonna stand as a good argument. Is this the only way you can argue, by comparison, so in the end Poland does not look so bad???? Quite funny really.

No madan it cannot, Poland during partitions had already a firmly constituted national identity backed by tradition and history with nearly a millenium of continuity.

What? So Poland is a template for other cultures now? LOL.

Not for other cultures, no but definitely for the Ukrainian culture, despite your claims modern day Ukraine is not a descendant of ancient Ruthenia, there is very little connection there.

Modern day Ukraine has its roots in Cossack uprisings in 17 century when the first local politically aware class emerged and even then these people didnt think of themselves as Ukrainians or Ruthenians but simply Cossacks, a political and social class tied to a region.

True Ukraine begins sometime in late 18 century and becomes the synthesis of Russian, Polish and a hint of old Ruthenian culture which was at the time nearly dead through massive asimilation of the upper classes into the local powers.

what is the difference according to you?

Read above, Kievan Rus was a completely different state the only a loose ethnic connection.

1580 - bible printing began in Ukraine by Fedorov

Ivan was a Russian, not even a Rut

1615 - Kyjevo-Mohylanska Academy, one of the oldest universities in Eastern Europe

henian but a bloody ethnic Russian.
The first and only academy in Ukraine for about 80 years, never became a university and was not even close to being one of the oldest in Eatern Europe since Hungary, Novgorod principality, Lithuania, Poland and Moscow had academies and universities for quite a long time by then.

1740 - 866 primary schools

Uhuh and most of them run by Poles.

Monasteries throughout Ukraine since its Christendom in 988 by Volodymyr the Great

Ruthenian monastieries, not Ukrainian ones.

What about churches and their educational ole in society?

Very little, orthodox church was extremely insular.

Do you know Sofia Church in Kyjiv? 1019 built of stone on place of a wooden one. This was a center and still remains of Orthodoxy in the world. And these are times of Mieszko l if I am not mistaken, your first king, right?

You mean Mieszko who had several cities the size of Kiev under him by the end of his rule ?:)

Comparing the ruthenian culture which is only loosely connected with modern day Ukraine to Polish culture which has over 1000 years of continuity despite changing political circumstances isnt exactly helping your point.

That Ukraine is a young nation is nothing bad but the fact is that prior to WW 2 you did not have the intelectual elite that the old countries had, such elite is a thing that takes many generations, a developed society and equally developed traditions and education, Ukraine had none of this since Cossacks and Ruthenians can be connected only by religion and ethnicity, culture and civilization was always either Polish or Russian or whoever occupied you at that particular time, having little national identity your elites took on the customs of the local powers.

Of course, Germans had a thriving civilization when Ukrainians were living in huts and plowing fields of polish nobles, Germans had well over 7 centuries of heritage before anyone in Ukraine even thought of himself as Ukrainian.

As such they had a far greater civilizational ethical and moral awareness than their ukrainian contemporaries at the time, Ukraine is a young country and culture or education were not actually in abundance prior to WW 2 which resulted in much of ukrainian nation being little more than illiterate former serfs, such people have greater capacity to blindly commit atrocities without understanding the full capacity of what they're doing.

Love / Love my polish girlfriend alot but under pressure from family [166]

Both of your responses are proving my point more and more; you (nor I) understand their culture, so you're labeling it according to your upbringing.

Actually i do understand their culture, as with most primitive cultures its one ruled by strength where the weak and the females have no say, morality and ethics are arbitraly bent around to fit the whim of the strongest, there is no respect for freedom of choice or dignity.

Sixty to seventy years after American independence and we weren't doing so hot either...

Islam is not doing so hot for the last 700 years, in fact the closer we get to the present the worse it gets.

Also i'm not judging the guy and his "civilization" through mine, i'm judging him through universal values of respect towards another human being, i'm no hippy and i understand people have their own ways but if those ways include battered women or hanging women who divorce men then however you twist it the culture is backwards.

Also muslims are not a particulary complicated breed either.

Well we have different ways of looking at it I guess. I agree many of those things are wrong and killing is certainly wrong, but the other examples are wrong from our western perspective. Some of our practices with shoes (like pointing them in the direction of elders or stepping on books) are "backwards" to them.

What fucking planet are you from ? You compare abuse of basic freedoms based on gender, religion or race to pointing shoes ?

I'm sorry i really mean no offence but are you downright stupid or just that desperate to defend the little world you live in ?

My point was not taken though. I'm talking about specifically the fact that his parents would disown him for marrying the Polish girl.

And they would do so because their culture is BACKWARDS, a culture thats so selective and opressive is called backwards no matter how you look at it, of course there's the added fact of the guy being a spineless twat and "culture" being the shield behind which he hides his fundamental lack of balls.

but I wouldn't consider it "backwards" considering plenty of Catholic or other sects of Christianity might follow same rules if they are strict or conservative enough.

Then they too are backwards, its not like Islam has monopoly on being messed up, the only difference is the scale.

History / UPA - Ukrainian Insurgent Army. How they killed poles in Volhynia (1943). [139]

it always made me wonder why killing of the 15thousands of soldiers in katyń was called against a crime against the polish nation but the volynhia slaughter where 500.000 of the poles were killed is not worth mentioning in the polish media.

Because Ukraine is our most important strategic partner, as the geopolitical reality will change Poland and Germany will come apart more and more and both we and Ukraine have absolutely the same long term interests in virtually every field and shitting on it even if it is historical truth is not wise, we should not let our past fuck up our future and thats exactly what all polish goverments and media are aware of.

There will come a time when Ukrainians mature enough to admit to such crimes but at this time they're a young nation that requires help, guidance and sincere partnership not dragging a bag of shit on their doorstep and telling them they made it.

Your kiddin now who?

Sasha while their goverment is bloody frackin oceans from democracy up untill the orange revolution it was a russian puppet, better a domestic bitch than some other powers bitch.

Ukrainians are not Russians.

No but there exists a significant russian majority especially in and around Crimea, de-rusification does not work, from Ukrainian POV it would be most beneficial to use the nearest geopolitical upheaval and resettle them to Russia but thats all theories, there's lots of Russians living in Ukraine today.

Also in regards to UPA and Nazi Germany, in my opinion Nazi Germany responsibility was greater, Germany was an old and greatly developed culture with full civilizational awareness of what it was doing whereas Ukrainians were a young nation bordering on barbarism without ethical and moral awareness.

Poles have been a traditional elite of the region and much hatred and envy exploded, i do not agree nor do i justifiy UPA, they were thugs murderers and little more but at least they had their reasons and not enough civilizational and cultural spine to stop them.

Germans were adults fully knowing what they were doing, Ukrainians were just cruel children, thats a pretty big difference.

Love / Being remarried in the catholic church poland after being divorced [16]

I doubt that you have authority to comment about such issues. However I noticed that you have no problems to make claims about energetics knowing nothing about the subject.

Lesser my brother married a girl with a civil divorce so yes i have authority to comment about such issues, from the church law view its not a problem at all, some running around is or is not required because there are places where you will get married without any questions asked and there are places where there's paperwork.

I see that you have nice opinion about our church. This is indeed very "Catholic" to bribe a priest. As I wrote earlier, priest that don't abide to the rules should be reported to his bishop.

I have a very negative approach to our catholic church but the fellow came asking is it OK to be married to a girl that has a civil divorce and thats the issue, the bribing is a reality since our clergy can take their sweet time otherwise.

You have strange approach. There is nothing wrong about Catholic faith, just individuals have problems to stick to it

A religion is like taking a crap, a very private matter, unless its Jews of course then we should critisize them :)
