Love / Polish girls' obsession with marriage [124]


I don't think this is so much of an Iceland "speciality". What you are not used to is usually exotic (in one way or another). This effect is probably stronger in a remote community where you have seen the same kind of people your whole life, but I'm quite sure that it works like this everywhere.

I don't think it's a coincidence that people often have romances and more sex when they go abroad for vacations and stuff.

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

I love this topic.

Of course all persons from a certain country are the same bed.
I'm Swedish. I'm exactly like all other Swedes in bed. It's like a gene we have.

Maybe you didn't recognize the irony in my post, or maybe you did. :)

I'm glad I haven't slept with people from all countries in the world, then I would be a little too experienced. ;)

Love / Just met the man of my dreams. I'm an American girl, he's Polish. [49]


In northern Europe we usually shake hands, it more convenient, you don't have to brush your teeth afterward. Highly recommended.

Love / Just met the man of my dreams. I'm an American girl, he's Polish. [49]


If someone turns down the woman he loves because he has to cook from time to time, you might think he just arrived in a time machine from the 19th century.

Love / Just met the man of my dreams. I'm an American girl, he's Polish. [49]


Yes, I'm Swedish but live in Poland. I know that the women usually does cooking etc. in Poland. In Sweden men and women do about equal amounts (50%/50%) of cooking/cleaning/washing. Probably the women does a little bit more of this than the man (in most families).

I think most Scandinavian girls think like this: If both the woman and man work full time at their jobs, why should the woman do all the routine work at home?

I think that the conclusion of this thread is that it depends more on personal preferences than nationality. At least I hope so. I think it'd sound boring if someone said that all Swedes are the same in bed. Probably we all need to have our personal specialties. ;)

Love / She calls me kici, why? Meaning? [11]


I don't know, but have you asked her?

Love / Chatting up Polish girls in the street. [60]

Hehe... there is a difference between chatting and chatting.

Love / Just met the man of my dreams. I'm an American girl, he's Polish. [49]


In Sweden it's not associated with communism. It's just that people want to help each other to make every day life as good as possible.

Life / Price of beer in Poland [90]


I would say that Polish beer is one of the best (only Czech I liked more). Żywiec is one of the most popular and the one I like the most.

Life / Indian moved to Poland [532]


I would say that Warsaw is the opposite of "laid back life".

News / Is tan skin common among polish people? [57]

Where in Poland you come from also matters. People in the southern part usually have darker skin color than people from north.

Love / Pick up lines - the Polish style [110]

- What do you want for breakfast?

If a classic pick-up line works, I think that the girl was very interested in you already before you launched the pick-up line.

Love / Polish girls' obsession with marriage [124]

Aha sorry, I didn't read what you wrote carefully enough. Mankind should thank people who are enlarging the gene pools.. hehe. :)

And I think people often are attracted to what they are not used to. I guess they think more about that than the gene pool. ;)

Love / Polish girls' obsession with marriage [124]

I don't agree completely. I will tell you why.

Yes, we are animals. Our biological instincts help us to make good choices from an evolutionary point of view. But the modern human makes a lot of choices that do not promote evolution. So evidently there must be more involved than just biological instincts. I would say that this is thinking and feeling in a much more complex way than other animals.

As far as I know we are the only animals that can do so complex thinking and feeling that it wins over the biological instincts. So I don't agree with you when you say that "it doesn't involve thinking".

Love / Chatting up Polish girls in the street. [60]


Doesn't everyone dislike uncomfortable situations?
I understand what you mean. But what's uncomfortable is very subjective.

Language / łem = past and będę = future? [18]


Let's start with singular persons:

będę + infinitive = I will...
będziesz + inf. = you will...
będzie + inf. = he/she/it will...

Life / Tradition of writing names day card in Poland [12]

Love / Polish girls' obsession with marriage [124]


I agree, it's obvious that our instincts have been formed by evolution to promote survival of mankind. But it's also obvious that we today are less dependent on our instincts to survive (than, let's say, 10 000 years ago).

Today most people have strong bonds to the social environment they live in. I'm not going to start discussing sociological theories. But these social bonds definitely inhibit some of our biological instincts (please note that I wrote inhibit not erase or extinguish). This is a kind of social evolution, because the bonds to our social environment inhibits our instincts when they are bad for us. I think that this can be viewed as survival of fittest, but most fit for the social environment not for the biological environment.

We can also see that people from different cultures are looking for different kind of persons to date, have a nice time in bed (or wherever they think sex is most exciting) with. This differences can't be due to evolutionary mechanisms, because these cultures have existed too short period of time.

I had not heard about Eskimo hospitality, but I read a little now. And it's obvious that it's a behavior that promotes biological evolution (you have a good point here).

Maybe we can agree that both evolutionary and social factors play a great role in choosing partner.

And I will enjoy sex without lying there thinking of Darwin's natural selection. Even though the theory is interesting.

Language / Do Polish Movies Help learn the language? [60]

Even listening to Polish music can be useful, both to hear how words are pronounced and to learn new expressions. You can do it whenever you want, in the car, when you are at the gym etc. In this way it's better than movies. But maybe Polish Rap is not the best thing to start with.

Love / do polish girls consider a english man a good catch ? [126]


I love the generalizations. Fortunately I am not an Englishman.
It's difficult to take this thread seriously.

Love / What is the best car to impress a Polish girl? [60]


Maybe 15 years ago.


I think that actually could be kind of impressive.


Why do girls think silicon boobs impress boys? It's not a surprise that most boys like boobs, we do. :) But I guess it's difficult to make silicon look good. Natural is the best (usually).

Love / What is the best car to impress a Polish girl? [60]

I'm gonna start the new TV-show Pimp my Polonez! Accompanied by hard core Disco Polo songs like Jesteś szalona and Straciłaś cnote.

Love / Discussion about Polish Men's Tempers [103]


Do people want their children to grow up with this kind of father?
Children often get the same kind of behavior as their father had when they grew up, that's scientifically proven.

If someone is behaving terrible in the beginning of a relationship it surprises me that the other person doesn't leave. It surprises me even more that someone marry such a person. There is a pressure in Poland to get married if you get pregnant. And there is often also a pressure to not get divorced. But people can't let that destroy both their and their children's future. What is most important?

Life / Controversy about funshops with recreational drugs in Poland [50]

For example benzylpiperazine is illegal in United States, Australia, New Zealand and in parts of Europe.

Many of these compound can have a wide spectra of toxic effects, e.g. causing seizures, renal failure etc. Acute psychosis has been reported for many of them.

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


I think everyone knows how to please a girl.


You're saying that religious people are unbiased?

USA, Canada / american girl and a polish boy, how to stay in Poland legally? [14]


I wonder that too?


If the authorities don't know she is staying without proper papers. She should leave Poland and get the proper papers, then she can go back to Poland.


If you get married to a Polish man I guess you have the right to stay in Poland forever if you want to.
But you should only get married if you really love him, and wants to be with him for the rest of your life.

Life / Controversy about funshops with recreational drugs in Poland [50]

You don't know exactly what's in these pills and extracts. Many of them are produced under poor conditions, and may contain contaminants. And even if you would know exactly what it contains, little is known about what many of these substances do to your body.

For example benzylpiperazine can cause side effects including dilated pupils, blurred vision, dryness of the mouth, extreme alertness, pruritus, confusion, agitation, tremor, extrapyramidal symptoms (dystonia, akathisia), headache, dizziness, anxiety, insomnia, vomiting, chest pain, hallucinations, paresthesia, tachycardia, hypertension, palpitations, collapse, hyperventilation, sweating, hyperthermia, and problems with urine retention.[21][23][24][25] The more severe toxic effects include psychosis or adverse psychiatric events,[26][27] renal toxicity,[13] respiratory failure,[23] and seizure.[21][24]

Life / Polish Hooligans [41]

Many of these blockheads are both football hooligans and neo-nazis. These groups are pretty famous (or let's say infamous) in Poland.
