Love / What do you think....is he serious? [37]

what you learn is to shut your mouth about the past

Yes, you speak the truth! It is better not to volunteer information.

Love / What do you think....is he serious? [37]

I think this is a classic male mental conflict, of being a bit uncomfortable about the woman's past, and her sex life. It is rather warranted, in your case, as you did have sex with him first time. Usually women do not give it up that easy.

Anyway, Wroclaw Boy summed it up perfectly. He just isn't positive on you, yet. He probably loves you, but now has second thoughts.

Melissa; I have a question for you. Would you be put off, if he confessed one day that he has had sex with a man before?

but he is just not a player.

Sounds like a very smart man. The more honest you are, and tell about other strange things you have done in your life, perhaps the more uncomfortable it would make him. I would think twice about that, if I were you.

History / Roman Dmowski- Polish Adolf Hitler? [219]

He said that the last time Adolph Hitler went to church was for Josef Pilsudski's memorial service.

Yes. But you know what I think. I think that little Adolfek was just making sure that our Marszalek was really dead ;)

1. Unable to deal with minorities' problem in Poland - it refers not to the Polish Jews only but to Ukrainians or Germans as well.

Yes, this is true. But Dmowski's main problem with these minorities was that they basically made up the middle class in Poland. There were barely any native Polish middle-class, (either poor, or rich Poles) which he rightly saw, as a BIG problem in Poland. He called for land seizures and purging, something which I don't entirely agree with, but his fundamental idea was correct.

On the contrary to Pilsudski he obviously underestimated the Russian

No... I don't agree with this. I doubt that any Russian historians would call him pro-Russian. After all, this is the same man who made secret deals with the Japanese, before their war with Russia, and tried to organize a Polish volunteer brigade to aid the Japanese, as long as they supported Poland's fight for independence. They were to blow up important bridges and railways in North-Eastern Russia. This is now very well known.

History / Roman Dmowski- Polish Adolf Hitler? [219]

I don't get people like you Warsaw. Here you are, 50 years after Hitler, probably in your early 20's? praising him and the Nazi's for what they did, but at the same time, being proud of your Polish heritage. You know, had you lived back then, neither the Poles, nor the Germans would have accepted you. You would have been seen as someone inferior in the eyes of the Germans, and seen as a volksdeutche (potentially a spy) by the Poles.

I wonder, what would you have done?

History / Roman Dmowski- Polish Adolf Hitler? [219]

I am bringing back my old thread, as I recently found a very good book on Roman Dmowski. As I am layed up at home for the next little while, I have some spare time on my hands. For anyone interested, the book information is below...

Life / Homosexuals in Poland / Hands off (PETITION) [797]

As long as these gays don't flaunt it in front of my face, and try to touch me, I don't give a damn what they do in their free time, in their own home!

Love / Is sex with Polish guys different to sex with English guys? [173]

I wear a small, ancient Greek era (hoplite) helmet, with half of a Greek flag, and half of a Polish flag, during the act. I also strap on a pair of wings made of Turkey feathers on my back, Hussar style. I find that this act scares away most women.

Life / MEN'S DAY and FEMALE CHAUVINIST SWINE? Situation in Poland. [46]

I think he has a deep appreciation for women

Yes. I have a deep appreciation for women. I especially appreciate what they do for me, when I appreciate THEM.
Try it out sometime, Zimmy, it can be very nice.

Life / MEN'S DAY and FEMALE CHAUVINIST SWINE? Situation in Poland. [46]

mangina.

What an original play on words!

No, there's being a vagina, just like when someone feels they have to show their masculinity off by talking down to women, and men who actually show some damned respect for the opposite sex these days, and then theres being a man, someone who doesn't treat women like dirt (unless they so choose)

But yeah, you're right on one thing. I'm an allright guy.

P.S (I was generally aiming my well wishes to some women I already knew from the forum...I know you were just trying to be funny, but please don't interrupt)

History / Why communism failed in Poland? [275]

Soviets and Russians as completely different

Well, there is a degree of truth to this. However, the Russian subserviant attitude is universal to both old Imperial Russia, the Soviet Union, and today's modern Russia. It is still very much alive. Even today, I speak to a lot of Russians who will just not listen to me when I try to give them my view.

I know a priest, who was once visiting the Vatican, and met a group from Russia. This was in the mid 90's. Since he knew Russian well, he tagged along, and kind of stuck behind them, listening to their tour guide.

At one point, one of the older Russian ladies couldn't handle it, and demanded he tell her who he is. All he said is, "Non Capisco."

Later he overheard them discussing him, and he heard very clearly, the man asking if he understood all that they were saying. They were so very much afraid that he was a spy! And it was 1995!

I'm afraid that is the lasting legacy of both Communist Russia, and that has been passed down from Imperial Russia.

History / Polish soldier stories [50]

My grandfather was in the AK, had escaped from being sent to Katyn as a cavalry officer, and led various missions against the Germans in the forests near the town of Wyszkow. I was also told by a friend of his, more recently, now a very aging old man, that my grandfather himself tied the noose on a German corporal who had murdered 3 young children in the town.

I was very proud when I learnt of this fact.

News / Polish-Hungarian friendship - reality till today or just a phantasmagoria [144]

But if you read history you will see Turks and Magyars lived together and mixed

Yes. And if you read history you will see that Magyars (Huns) mixed with ancient Slavic populations nearby. Modern day Hungarians are more related by blood to Poles and Czechs, than to Turks. What remains of Turkish-Hungarian relationship is the language, and some customs. Not much else.

You did not say bye

Delayed good-bye then : )

News / Polish-Hungarian friendship - reality till today or just a phantasmagoria [144]

Hungarians aren't

Hmmm.. interesting that you state this with such conviction.

Both Polish and Hungarian populations have the highest frequency of the R1a Y gene in Europe. Two people will have the same Y chromosome marker only if they originated from the same father.

Please do some further research on this subject if you doubt me. Both countries have over 50% of this DNA.

How about their history together? Has Poland ever had a better brother than Hungary through ancient times? Did you forget that ancient Poland boardered Hungary? Our kinship is as old as our countries.

Of course, I am not the only one to think this way. How else do you think this idea of brotherhood would be accepted so easily in both cultures?



the inevitable intermarrying as per usual throughout European history

At least you got one thing right...

News / Poland will take half a century to catch up with the West [240]

I think Poland made a huge mistake by joining the EU. I think Poland should leave the EU as soon as possible. I can give scores of arguments to back up my statement.

Wow, for once I completely agree with something that Puzzler said!
The EU is plastic, everyone should know this by now.
