Love / Why are polish girls more approachable than north american girls [158]

Cyprian sounds very bitter. He was in Canada for a short time and thinks that he knows it all about N.American women based on 2 high school girls and what his "buddies" told him about them. Not admissible in this court - hear say. :)

...but now he is traumatized and scarred for life! What can I advise him?

social? dont think so, if you were social, you wouldnt be calling everyone names on here, or insulting them.

I know, you need socializing. Big time. And, relax.

Love / Are Polish men generally possessive? [51]

Yes, a lot of men think that they must be cool and aloof to be a man. I think, it is the English culture which teaches the men to be reserved and not emotional. Polish men are able to show their feelings and say their thoughts.

Genealogy / Is Rafal a Polish Name? [56]

I miss the cute abbreviations in English names. You can call Joseph as Joe or Joey. Not much more...

Jozef, Jozek, Joziu, Jozio, Jozeczek, Jozuniu, Jozisko (I'm mad at him), Jozior...
OK. I'm making them up, but I can! And, it is fun. :)

UK, Ireland / We welcome Polish people to Britain! [224]

maybe thats why they work work work all the bloody tim. sub-hamn slav-slave idiots.

No, he is not drunk or high...he is 20 and he has a lot to learn. He enjoys instigating while hidden behind the screen. If he was walking around saying things like that, he would be very alone...well, maybe he is.

P.S. "Slava" stand for Glory.

Love / Polish interracial dating [333]

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polans_(western)

This is who we are. Our borders were shifted left and right throughout centuries, our women were raped by "darker' invaders, but we're still beautiful, mostly blue eyed nation with identity of its own. A few marriages outside the group will not make us anybody different. Ever. Anyway, there is nothing wrong with a small refreshment of a gene pool.

Maati, the words are not yours, but mine. You responded to my general post, agreed with the post and now you claim the above are your words. That's called plagiarism.

Anyway, I can see your point because that's what happens in the US. Way too many highly educated people from Poland loose their ambitions and get stuck in menial jobs.

I don't see Pakistani, Indian or any Asian cleaning ladies...

As to the sex innuendos? Have fun! :)

Why Are Polish people so tolerant?

I think we are too nice and too submissive. We never believe in ourselves enough and tend to be overrun by other nationalities. There are so many of us in the world - EVERYWHERE, but we don't even have a decent representation in county or state government. Never mind the federal.

USA, Canada / a little question about dollar [19]

I talked to my family in Poland a lot during X-mas. (Jeez, my next phone bill).
The polish zloty is very strong. Nobody wants dollars, but Euros and British pounds. Since so many people went to UK and other countries looking for jobs, the job market improved in Poland. My niece just got a great job at The Institute of Technology in Warsaw. She never wanted to leave to UK and work with a mop... I wish many more young, educated people stay in Poland.

Nope, I'm not fitting everybody in the same basket. I am happy to see polish businesses and polish last names in a corporate world. I just wish there were many, many more ambitious Poles - because we CAN.

What a tribal fight! Latinos against the Slavs... Historically, I don't think we ever fought against each other.

All I can say, Mexican people are as hardworking and as catholic as Poles.
Jose, visit Poland. You'll feel at home.

UK, Ireland / catholic new blood in UK [46]

Setting things straight:

Pollock - some kind of fish

Polack - offensive for a Pole

Polak - a polish man

Polka - a polish woman

Because the US has some of the strictest immigration regulations in the world.

Hmm, Is this the reason we have over 11 million illegal immigrants?
The regulations might be strict but they are not enforced. If we REALLY did not want anybody to get in, we would take care of the borders with Mexico and Canada.

Polack - offensive for a Pole

Polak - a polish man

Eurola, how is the pronunciation different?

Trust me, it sounds different when said by a polish person and way different when said by English speaking person i.e. in the movies. My American friends feel very uncomfortable pronouncing it when asked and told - it just means a polish man... :)

Life / How do Polish view others [116]

east Europeans tend not to like each other. poles and Russians ( very similar, hate each other) Serbs and Croats (very similar, hate each other) its weird and doesn't make sense

You forgot to mention that Germans and French hate each other too.

This kind of general statements is pretty obsolete nowadays. Children are not born with their hate toward a certain nation. This comes later when some people begin to hate based on the history between the nations.

Just watch the Palestinian 5 year old boys throwing stones at Jews.

Based on the views above the EU needs a lot of work to be United.
It took a civil war in this country to be called United States. A scary thought...

Food / is" kaszanka" a Polish speciality? [54]

Of course, I probably don't want to know what's in my keilbasa or my bratwurst!

My first trip to PL someone fed me smalec and I gagged because I didn't know what to expect.

What do you think is in Oreo cookies? Unless you don't like them either? :)

Do you know what's in the hot dog? :)

Love / Women are divided into the same table [23]

And too many people eventually end up being alone because they have to high standards and deceive themselves that someday they will find their perfect partner.

Also, dear Matyjasz...many people (mostly women, unfortunately) are stuck in a miserable relationship for fear of being alone. I don't know which one is worse...

Love / Women are divided into the same table [23]

There is a tiny percentage of people who want to be single forever. Most are on the constant quest to find someone to share life with. I think it's quite normal. Singles do lead happy, independent life until the right one comes along. (including me, I'm divorced). It is great to be alone, but not lonely.

One of my single friends was in a 3 year relationship, full of abuse and tears, but ...she did not want to be "alone". Another one is constantly out: at singles dances, clubs, bars, blind dates...so desperate, she scares off any potential candidate.

So, there many different aspects to being single. It's your inner happiness that counts, no matter what it is.

Life / Sylwester (New years Eve) in Poland - how much people spend on this? [4]

Wow, that sounds like a lot of fun. It wouldn't work in Illinois with the outside activities...too cold.
I think, people nowadays are more money conscious. Most I know, will spend tomorrow's evening at home with a circle of friends. Including me.

Too many intoxicated drivers out there and no police in sight.

Language / I told my friends that I was polish and i speak polish but i'm not [24]

It's a interesting concept, but you can not fool anybody. If it was so easy to pretend to be of the same nationality, I could choose to be French one day...German another etc.

When I visit Poland, even I can not fool polish people, because once I open my mouth, I'm asked "Where are you from" - meaning "Where do you live"...

Sorry! :)

History / Jews...and their Polish experience [520]

Jewish people made Poland their home in the past as well as now because they were (are) most welcome there. They could thrive with their businesses, education, arts - unlike at the homelands of western accusers who dare talk about polish anti-semitism.

Some Poles may have resented it but not enough to make it such a big issue.

The blabbers make it an issue because they like to instigate.

Love / So... How did you meet your Polish girlfriend/wife? [30]

I have heard of men wearing wedding rings to pick up chicks.

I did. Apparently, a married man is seen as a man who can commit (a lot of men can't or don't). Therefore, if he is committed to the wife (presently), he will be committed to me when he divorces her to be with me. It is a very twisted logic even hard for me to understand, but there was a radio talk show on this subject. It was hilarious, when women called explaining their preferences for a man with a wedding ring.

This would somewhat explain the rate of divorces...I guess. :)

So, traveling businessmen - you don't need to take the ring off!!! :)

(I don't think I want a man who travels a lot). Scary.
