What makes you think I am not doing something about it? Why do you think since I am saying something here it is all I am doing?

And to the latter...I am relieved to hear you have a conscience.

You feel sorry for me but not them? And do you really feel bad for me or was it just a veiled insult (as it appears)? Kind of like calling someone pathetic but not directly...

Yeah coming from you greg that really bothers me...heh.

Justysia so I have to be black to stand up for right against racism against blacks? By that logic nobody should fight for anything that doesn't directly affect them.. Also if it is just a message board why are you worried about it?

I know you are joking but it is not racist to not want to sleep with or date a person (we all have preferences that way)...none of us has said that...what IS racist is to say mixing races is bad....or saying a race is smelly or dirty...people here are mixing the points to use in their arguments.

Nobody can justify this...

justysia...let me ask you this. Is racism bad in your mind? If so why did you not post telling them they were wrong for being racists but rather you posted telling me I am sad for saying so? Shouldn't you criticize the bad behavior not those standing up against it? It seems you think I am more wrong and more sad than those behaving wrongly since your efforts are directed at me and not them. Do you think if you believe strongly something is bad you should just give up because a few people on a message board think it is sad? Honestly now. If I misunderstand you I apologize but could you explain why this is? I really would like to understand what your thought process is to arrive at the conclusion that I am the sad one.

I am also not sure where you got the idea I feel sorry for myself. I am white and don't suffer the effects of these kind of people myself. I feel sorry for the people who act this way for being so ignorant and simple.

Aha...so it is our fault they are racists...ok. If we just ignored what they said they wouldn't have said anything racist thus WE caused the racism. Got it. Sorry.

BTW I am white so it isn't like I have some internal struggle with how I am treated in Poland due to race..I just see what my friends go through and it is disgusting. you have girls like this SAY they are not racist in the same breath they say don't mix colors. It is one thing to say you don't prefer a certain look to date...it is a whole other thing to laugh...act incredulous at the thought...and insult a race.

I fail to see how you can honestly criticize us at all when they are clearly wrong...but it doesn't surprise me.

Yeah apparently acting trashy and mouthy is 'cool' for girls these days. If they could only see how gross it makes them look to most guys. The guys that DO go for them are only doing it to get some...not because they like the personality.

Life / Local Poles taking advantage of foreigners living in Poland [235]

Most of them don't have the stones to push it if you stand up to them. They rely on ignorant or nervous types they can take advantage of. If you let them know in no uncertain terms you aren't having any of their crap they will back down...they will still give you attitude in some attempt to save face but they are all bluster.

Social skills here (Warsaw...small places are a bit better) are not what we are used to in the west...customer service is rude (they seem to take it personally if you don't have exact change...like they have to pay for it or something)...people do not hold doors or help people in public...they crowd onto the buses and trams without standing aside so people can get off...stop and talk in front of doors and lifts blocking people...you may or may not get a 'przepraszam' WHILE someone pushes you out of the way but never before. They know it is wrong and if you say something or make a thing out of it they get visibly embarrassed...yet unless they get called out they don't seem to care.

The short change thing is common so be sure to always count your change in front of them before you go....

I love how these little girls think they can tell us what to do...like they have any authority or control over our actions...heh.

And I love how the girl who had a blatantly racist tirade saying not to mix 'milk' and 's23t' is now acting like she is an angel and everyone else is so bad.

You are nasty girl....nasty.

Language / Serious question about swear words!? Need help. [21]

What a coward to say things you don't understand. Like has been said about half of those things are NOT him juts venting...he is calling you names. The other half COULD be just venting and cussing not directed at you but could also be meant about you.

This guy sounds like a winner. There are a few girls on this forum that deserve a guy like that with the way they talk.

You think you are NICE? I noticed something completely different.

You are right...I reacted poorly to the insults and rudeness...I can admit when I am wrong.

The difference is I would have never said the racist things that were said here to begin with.

I am in Warsaw and some Polish girls are reading this right now...they think you two are gross and keep telling me that you do not speak for Polish girls and that girls like you give them a bad name...that's good enough for me.

Oh and one more rude thing from me...jestesjedyny....I read a post about your bf leaving you and going back to Poland...can't say I blame him...escape would be on my mind too.

Cheers...

And that saddens me...that being nice and respectful is now considered weird...yet being rude, racist and elitist is "cool"

Your ancestors would be ashamed that they suffered and fought like they did throughout Poland's history and this is how their descendants are behaving.

Enjoy...

Oh and jestesjedyny...you are posting here too so by your definition you have nothing better to do either...or does that obvious point escape you? Probably...go back to your nails.

A Pole who doesn't speak her own language telling a native Englishwoman how to speak her's....hehe haha. That it rich.

It is clear she meant it to say 'bint's'....your posts are not perfectly spelled and gramatically correct either just so you know.

Language / "sorry" instead of "przepraszam" [76]

Never heard 'sorki' in 4 years here...'sorry' is common but I agree doesn't sound good. I don't like the sounds of other language's words when changed to fit the new language.

Like if I said "przepraszam" but pronounced it according to American English rules it would sound really bad to Poles...same thing.

No I did not say that...preferring something is not racism....saying black skin is "s23t" yet white skin is 'milk' and you shouldn't mix them, and the other nasty comments ARE racism. It is very clear.

But keep talking...you are proving my points and showing people what a lot of people here really think...

Cheers :)

Language / Petition for Pimsleur Polish II and III? [10]

I called them years ago and even offered to help write programs for several languages that I had friends speaking. Polish, Lithuanian, Latvian etc. They said "no thanks".

I said "but we love your programs and they are coming out way to slow to keep up with the demand...."....they said "no thanks"

So it is clear they are not interested in advancing the courses...it took them 10 years just to come out with Polish I over the ten lesson set. I will have far surpassed the material in II and III by the time they create them.

Another example is Eastern Arabic...they just came out with II after about 10 years of I being out and III is not even close to being ready from what they told me.

Good programs but the current management is pathetic....and while I really like the system, they are WAAYYY overpriced for what you get. A typical I, II, III set would be nearly 1000usd if you buy retail.

See? can you actually read and understand what you are writing? Cut of my balls? geez..

You made very racist comments and it is there for all to see. I never said only whites are racist...you have that complex not me.

Racism is never right...you cannot justify it because others do it. That is the argument of the weak. And you can insult me all you like...it means nothing. I am comfortable with myself...and btw I am white...imagine that?

You are an embarrassment to your culture (and did I read correctly you don't even speak Polish yet you speak for all Polish girls?). I hope more people like Shelly stand up for that culture.

I live in Poland and while my gf is very cool , 'many' (which is what I said not 'all' like you tried to twist is) of the girls here are as I described above...so...

You have here a post that compares white people to milk and black people to s@#t and instead of condemning this for the horrible statement it is you have people laughing and agreeing.

That is very sad.

In fact for someone that comes from a country that was devastated in the 30s and 40s by an Austrian/German guy with such attitudes about race is disgusting and an embarrassment to Poland and I cannot believe the moderators let it stand.

Guys I am really sorry you are being treated like this...this is a perfect example of how racists Poles are. They say things like "I would never date a brownie" and then proclaim they are not racists...ironic.

Stating you opinion when that opinion is horrible, rude and racist does not make you 'honest'.

If you come to Poland and speak Polish you will here people in the street saying such racist things about you when they think you cannot understand. Sure you will meet some good people here but the majority think like the posters here...I am white but I hear them say it all the time like they think it will be ok with me because I look like them.

Poland is all white and extremely prejudiced....Polish women can be wonderful if you get the right one ( I was lucky) but unfortunately many are like jestesjedyny and have horrible, vain attitudes...they think they are princesses and are rude and self righteous...a lot like American women but skinny :)

And cisco....most of the posts here and on your thread are insulting you and very wrong so I think you are being way too polite to them. They are mocking you and treating you as a lesser person...get used to it if you live in Poland.

Life / Polish Driving Licence. [314]

If you buy a fake license the chances are it won't pass muster (ie bad quality and how would you know?)...meaning the first time you show it to the Police you will go to jail.

Criminals that would sell you this sort of thing are not trustworthy and won't be the ones in trouble when you get caught.

Damian it is like any place...some like a certain color and some don't....Poles are all white and are generally a bit racist really so your chances here are less than some places. Don't mind these folks...Polish people tend to be quite direct to the point of rudeness often. At least you know where you stand as they don't hide their prejudices.

That being said...there will always be some girls that like you because they see you as 'exotic' being a different color.

Life / A club like Tygmont, in Warsaw? [9]

Yeah that is one thing Warsaw/PL has none of...diversity. All white for the most part...my Asian and Black friends are stared at like they are aliens.

And they can say they are not racists all they want but I see how they treat non whites...

Life / Non-smoking cafes in Krakow to use laptop plugged in [12]

I am waiting until I can enjoy a pint without smelling like a nasty smoker after leaving.

Good luck finding a non smoking place...98% of girls and 75% of guys smoke here.

Even when the law goes into effect against smoking in pubs they will ignore it like the Italians do.
