Life / DO ADULT CHILDREN EXPLOIT THEIR PARENTS IN POLAND? [22]

Oh, our parents usually dump us somewhere on the streets when we're 18.. (Or they tie us to a tree when they go on a holiday!) And then we'll just have to make ends meet somehow. So uhm.. Usually the girls become pregnant, a porn model or a prostitute, and guys aspire to become a junkie, a loverboy or a drug-dealer. (Or a politician, but that's extremely rare!)

;)

(I've been told by an American yesterday!)

News / 14 year old rape victim from Warsaw denied abortion! [348]

This is of course far from final goal by as I said earlier Rome was not build in one day.

Ah, but Rome could be destroyed in one day.

;)

Chantal Gill’ard, who supported the change to the law, the implications for Dutch women are minor because early abortion procedures are still legal and available. She described the new regulation as ‘a formalisation of the current practice’, posing ‘no change in the practical situation for women’.

In other words, it didn't change anything. (I doubt you have even read the whole article.)

I would send congratulations but apparently I'm not sick enough to consider this to be a success story.

I merely stated a fact, I didn't condemn these practices, and I didn't call these practices a sucess story either. Oh, and aren't Christians supposed to follow their own religion? So whatever happened to you shall not judge?

That is a lie.

No, you're the one who's lying now. I've known them long enough to know that they respect life. I respect life, and I also respect freedom of choice. But what do Christians know about the freedom to make mistakes? The freedom to learn from those mistakes? You don't make any mistakes, right? You're perfect, flawless and infallible..

Oh, and you speak of love, compassion, forgiveness and respect, but you can't even show the slightest bit of love or compassion for someone who had to make a real hard choice in life, and neither can you respect, or even forgive someone for being different than you..

Remember the guy who has cracked the Enigma code? He was jailed for being Gay afterwards, and they even castrated the guy chemically. He committed suicide two years later. How righteous. How good. How compassionate. Tell me, Christian, how do you respect life then, when you can't even respect another human being?

Love / He keeps adding females friends to his profile .... [41]

What if we were, and what if we were dumping our girlfriends over adding male friends on their pages? What if we were trying to convince a guy on the internet that he should dump his girlfriend over something as trivial as this? I wonder how they would feel about that?

:S

Love / He keeps adding females friends to his profile .... [41]

No, it is not normal to be browsing and adding people you don't know (most likely because they are visualy attractive as I take it as a reason why he does it...) Lalka, dump his ass!

..says the girl who has hundreds of people on her facebook? I'm sorry, but to me it seems pretty normal to invite or add someone else who is connected to someone I actually know in real life. I think getting to know new people is basically the whole idea or concept behind social networking?

;)

Arien, I agree with jump bunny here. Many women feel like adding female contacts is, in itself, almost tantamount to betrayal. Although his intentions may be innocent, it does look bad.

Okay, so how do girls feel about adding boys to their own pages then? (While they're having a relationship I mean!) I'm sorry, I guess I really don't understand the fairness in that? (When you don't accept this behaviour from your boyfriend I mean!)

:S

Love / He keeps adding females friends to his profile .... [41]

Hey Lalka,

Be fair? Your boyfriend is not responsible for what another girl decides to wear (Or in this case, doesn't wear!) when she takes a picture of herself..

The fact that he has female friends on a social network page shouldn't bother you at all, it's normal. Be honest, you probably have male friends on your social network page yourself? You'll have to excuse me, but for some reason, I don't think your boyfriend would have much of a problem with it when one of those boys decides to take off his shirt when he decides to take a new picture of himself? Just ask yourself; How would you feel when he accused you of being sexually interested in some guy when you aren't responsible for the actions of someone else on your social network page?

Alright. The fact he deleted her could mean two things. 1: He cares alot about your feelings. (And puts you before the female friend.) 2: He feels guilty. (Now this should be alarming, because if he did it out of guilt then that would mean he was playing with the thought.)

To be honest, I don't think it's something you should worry about at this point in your relationship. Just don't shoot me if I'm wrong!

Life / Polish culture differences from the rest of Europe. [19]

Wasn't the police officer accused a woman of Moroccan origin making it still racially motivated riot.

No, it was a he, and he was Dutch.

This is just another example how to ignore the problem you have, change the definitions around and it's no longer an issue.

I'm not ignoring anything, I'm not changing definitions around, and I wasn't aware of the fact I gave you that impression, because I don't have that attitude. I gave you factual information, along with more recent news updates.

Do you see Moroccans anywhere? I only see Dutch people.. I could show you more footage, more documentaries, more articles and more intervieuws but it will probably just disappoint you. (I hope you understand that I really can't be bothered to translate all of that because I don't have that much time!) I don't see any reason whatsoever to call these events ethnic conflicts. Oh, and I've seen worse riots around football matches and public dance events..

By the way I read that even leftist radicals in Netherlands softened their stance on abortion.

I don't know which articles you've been reading, but it couldn't be much further from the truth. (1 out of 7 women have had an abortion.)

Life / Polish culture differences from the rest of Europe. [19]

Dutch politicians such as Fortuyn called Islam a backward culture seeing that they simply do not integrate into the fabric of Dutch society.

Politicians such as Fortuyn do not represent all of Holland. Oh, and about 80% of the third generation immigrants from Islamic countries are fully integrated, have jobs, live our culture and speak our language perfectly. (Ofcourse there are problems, and you've got a few racists everywhere!)

Didn't you just have Utrecht Riots and Moroccan-Dutch youth riots?

You clearly don't know what you're talking about. In Utrecht, a Dutch guy got shot by a police officer, after he threatened them with a knife, and Dutch Hooligans saw it as an opportunity to riot. (Along with some local youths.)

As for the Morrocan-Dutch riots, I would hardly call any of that event a riot.

nrc.nl/opinie/article2019438.ece/Laetitia_Griffith_Het_land_staat_in_brand_was_ongelukkige_woordkeuze - Poor choice of words.

In this article, politicians admit that they weren't informed. The Police Department confirmed that no riots took place. It seems some people have been blowing something out of proportions, just like you're doing..

You gotta love the Media!

The cunts like you are a plague here, people half of whom aint even Polish and you intentionally design topics to incite controversy and bad air.

I can deal with controversy when there's a progressive thought behind it, but in this case you're right ofcourse.

:)

Thank you my friend, this is exactly what i've been talking about on this forum numerous times, the young generation of Germans is as bad as the old, i've met a few of them and they were all di**s, prejudice retards.

I've met enough Germans who were alright, and I'm pretty sure I've met more Germans than you. (I live near the coast and its beaches, which seem to attract a lot of German tourists all year.) Oh, and I don't think you should compare the younger generation to the older generation either.

Language / I can't roll my r's damn it! [12]

or worse, will they just laugh, or shake their heads in disappointment?!!!

Hey, you can expect a few jokes, but you shouldn't take any of that as a personal insult really. (I mean, I can laugh when my Polish friends try to speak Dutch!) Besides, most tourists who visit Poland don't speak any Polish.. So even if you might know a little, I'm sure your attempts will be greatly appreciated!

Have fun! (You might try a glass of water!)

Love / Gay Interracial Polish Dating [36]

I respect the PERSON. But not the ailment.

It's not an ailment. It's a feeling those people have. (Just like some guys feel like a girl inside, and some girls feel like a guy inside.) Just like you feel like yourself. So how would you feel about it if people called Heterosexuality an ailment?

Would you feel respected?

If a person is mad...we dont tear them apart. But again, it doesnt mean that madness is welcome.

I'm sorry, but there are enough people out there who would tear someone apart for less reasons than being mad.. Now, how mad is that?

but being practicing gayism is a form of immorality (very unhealthy and traumatic one).

How would you know? I'm not a Gay or Lesbian, so I don't know how it feels to be Gay or Lesbian. My point is, if we're going to talk about immorality, and be perfectly honest about it, then everybody would have done, is about to do, or has done something that could be considered immoral. (Which all depends on your own moral compass!) I don't think it's a complete mystery that everyone has their own ideas about morality?

So why point the finger at eachother? Why do you feel the need to ''treat'' someone else when he or she feels fine? When I was in the army, there was a girl stationed with us, and she happened to be a lesbian, and she was a very positive individual. She also happened to believe in God.

For our children, and our societies...we need to get rid of this phsychological/genetic disorder by medical/yogic treatments.

Oh really? Consider this: We've passed 6 billion people, and we're almost reaching the figure of 7 billion people who live on this planet. Now, imagine a world without Gays and Lesbians.. If Gays and Lesbians never existed, then we already would've had huge overpopulation problems ages ago!

For your children, invest in green technology. Adjust your goals when it comes to solving problems. Adjust your priorities. You should know that fumes of Methane are already escaping from the bottom of the Ocean near Africa. Both the Polar Caps are melting rapidly, and nearly 17.000 animal and plant species are being threatened with extinction.

:(

..and you're concerned about Gays and Lesbians.

Love / Gay Interracial Polish Dating [36]

Ahhh so sayeth, Lord Liberal! We are prostrate at your wisdom. Clowns we are compared to you all Knowing One!

Ah, but I'm not the one who's holy, or even all knowing. I'm not the one who speaks for, and acts on behalf of a God. (No who's holy and all knowing?) In fact, I do realize that I'm not better than any of you. I'm not the one who calls someone else immoral either, I'm simply making comparissons, and hope he might acknowledge the hypocrisy of it all, before insulting someone else for being who he or she is.

My point is, our whole way of life, and the system it's based on, could be considered as immoral just aswell. No one is infallible, and all of us can be immoral sometimes, in one way or another. The fact some people don't seem to be aware of that in the first place, is what I would call ignorance of the worst kind. (To actually believe you can do no wrong in the bigger picture, or to deny your own responsibility in the bigger picture!) With arrogance I mean that some people seem to think they have the God-given right to call someone else immoral, and to base such verdicts solely on someone's nature.

One's (Wether he or she is straight, gay or lesbian!) morality or sense of values doesn't have a god-damn thing to do with one's sexual nature.

Holy? I think that's a misconception, because if someone opposes religion here, then that would be me. Because I can accept the fact that I can be immoral sometimes, because I can accept the fact that I am human, and I oppose this self-righteousness, because no God ever told me wrong from right.. Who the hell is he to tell other people that they are suffering from an immoral disease?

So it's actually him who claims to know everything. Not me. He's the one who's speaking on behalf of a God. Not me. It's actually fine with me if you want to say something about me, or question my point of vieuw, or question my motives, or question whatever you wish to question about me, but atleast get it straight when you do.

I guess we will never understand eachother if we don't exchange our vieuws. Look, I'm not the personification of all that is righteous, and I'm sure as hell not trying to portray myself as the embodiment of enlightenment. I'm just speaking my mind, and I strongly oppose this medieval way of thinking.

But if you think you have better suggestions, or better explanations, then by all means, go ahead and speak your mind.

:)

Gays + Lesbians = Are people :) ... they are humans ... they need love and respect... they need tolerance... they need equal rights as we have....

It is an UNSOCIAL, ANTI-NATURE, ANTI-PRODUCTIVE and very IMMORAL diesease.

How on earth could anyone call the above an example of love, respect, tolerance, or even a motivation for equality I wonder?

They will never be seen as equal, and they will never be respected for who they are, for as long as you keep accusing them of anti-social or unnatural behaviour, or even associate their sexual nature with a disease. Really, I can't help but noticing how you contradict yourself, and I can't help but thinking it's hypocrisy at its worst to claim that you're somehow morally correct, and have a better understanding of moral values, just because you happen to be a heterosexual.

:(

Or am I missing something here?

I wish everyone would be free to have sex with someone they like, or love, without having to worry about one of their Ultra-Christian, Ultra-Muslim, Ultra-Protestant, Ultra-Catholic, Ultra-Jewish, Ultra-Whatever-Religion or even Ultra-Sexist neighbours who undoubtedly will want their heads cut off, just for doing something that should be considered as something completely natural, or normal.

:)

Oh, and immoral?

Raping little children in a church, that's immoral. Burning people who say the earth isn't flat, that's immoral. Expelling, or excluding people from society, for no good reason, that's immoral. Humilliating, insulting, and threatening someone with death, along with the rest of the people who according to you, do fit in your community, that's immoral. Denying you've made just as many mistakes in the past, that's immoral. (For those who don't realize, that's also called lying.) Accusing someone else of things you've done yourself, or have even helped causing yourself, that's immoral. Stoning someone to death for cheating on their partners, that's immoral. Discrediting, gossiping, spreading lies and promoting hatred against someone just because he or she has different ideas, vieuws, opinions or preferences than you, that's immoral. Restricting people in their personal development, that's immoral. Taking advantage of hard working people, that's immoral. Giving yourself and your friends a bonus in times of economical decline, that's immoral. Oppressing people emotionally, spiritually, economicallly, financially or physically, that's immoral. Mistreating, discriminating, abusing, hurting, harming, humilliating, torturing or even killing someone because of his or her sexual preference, skin-colour or culture, that's immoral. Calling someone else immoral, while you've been, or even are being immoral yourself, that's immoral. Dehumanizing and demonizing whole groups of people, based on differences, that's immoral. Racism, bigotry, sexism, discrimination, and war are also immoral. Allowing a Corporate Business to eliminate human rights activists, that's immoral. Damaging our natural environment in the name of progress and prosperity, that's immoral. Driving cars on oil, and using gas when we already have other technologies which could've been put to use already, that's immoral. Taking away the future from the younger generation because of your own desire and lust for status, and material wealth, that's immoral. Slave labour, cheap labour, forced labour, that's immoral. Telling uneducated people in Africa that they shouldn't use condoms, that's immoral. Torturing people without any kind of evidence, that's immoral. Taking advantage of girls who were dragged into the red light districts by people trafickers, that's immoral. Demonizing other religions and cultures, while those religions and cultures are basically based on the same religion and culture as yours, that's immoral. Pressuring people to confess their so-called sins, only to use that information against them, that's immoral. Pressuring people to follow your religion, or else! That's immoral. Oh, and forcing your broken fairytales of conformity upon others to make them see things your way, that's just downright stupid..

:)

Thank you for this embarrassing display of total arrogance, complete ignorance, and self-righteousness. Fail. Exit. Next..

Love / Gay Interracial Polish Dating [36]

I feel the same about people who believe that a multi-cultrual society is the way forward, now that is sick!

Oh really? Well, long before Christianity, and even longer before Islam, even before the Roman empire, and before the first Pyramids in Egypt were built, all kind of human beings travelled around the whole world, and they used to trade with eachother, exchange news with eachother, exchange knowledge with eachother, and they even formed bonds and relationships with eachother.

How is that sick? I'm talking about your ancestors, my ancestors.. No differences there, and if you go back long enough, you'd see we all have the same roots.

You're talking about a multi-cultural society as if it's some sort of futuristic concept. Well, maybe you should consider this food for thought? (I don't think it would hurt you to think about this for a few seconds!) Even if we had an all white society, there would still be Pagans, Wiccans, Witches, Hippies, Atheïsts, Catholics, Protestants, Agnosts, Christians, Satanists, Druïds, Scientists, Jews, Buddhists, Muslims, Masons, Mormons, Jehova Witnesses, Heathens.. You name them!

My point? We've always been, and always will be a multi-cultural society, regardless on which continent, or which country we live in.

Why would you be against the whole idea of different cultures living together, but be all for different sexual preferences? (Hey, it's a different choice, a different lifestyle, so why not call it a different culture?) How can you be so selective? I know it may seem like just another smartass question to you, but don't you think a straight, Iranian or Asian Catholic has more in common with a British Catholic than the average British Lesbian or Gay person has?

Hey, I don't mean to offend you, but don't you remember how Jewish people got treated because of their cultural differences? I think deep, deep down, you're smarter than this Shelley. (I think you should be anyway!)

Love / what do polish guys think of spanish girls? [42]

Ahem..

Spanish girls???

You didn't seem to mind the generalization he made about me.

I think you understand the basics of conversation? If you start with insulting people yourself, you shouldn't expect a kind reply. (To be honest, I didn't scroll up that far, but I just did because you pointed it out.)

I know your Mr. Happy Liberal on here but kindly fack off. You invited yourself into the conversation.

Ah, but then again, it's a public discussion forum, and I'm afraid everyone is allowed into any conversation. You should invite a couple of friends to your MSN or something if you're looking for a private conversation.

;)

That's a part of Spanish culture by the way. I don't condemn it.

I know it's a part of Spanish culture, just like it was a part of Roman culture to throw slaves into their arena to fight to the death. Or to throw Christians before a pack of starved lions. Or how about stoning women? That's also part of a culture in some countries..

I mean to say, just because something is part of a certain culture, doesn't mean that it's right. Cultures change. Spain is member of the EU, and I think Spain will have to get used to animal rights sooner or later.

Oh, and by the way, I'm a Social-Liberal. Which is something completely different than your concept of a Liberal.

;)

Just like I don't bother you with taking umbrage about your Dutch queer marriages. ;-)

Are you suffering from some kind of Amnesia? You've been bothering me about Gay Marriage for ages! Seriously, I'm wondering why Gay Marriage seems to be such a hot item for you.

Well you're dutch.. maybe you'd like to borrow her dress?

What has me being Dutch have to do with wanting to borrow her dress? I think she looks much better in that dress than I ever would? So no thank you, let's leave all the dresses to women. I would like to take her dress off though, and take her to my bed, if only she didn't mind..

:)

Face it, she might aswell come with me, because it seems that you're too busy with Gay Marriages.

News / The Polish Economy and its future [101]

This Poland vs Holland thing was just coincidence :-) I wish Holland well.

Oh, I'm sorry if I came across like that, but I didn't see it as a Poland vs. Holland thing. I just wanted to explain something about our country, because from reading your post I was under the impression you thought your economy was just as strong as ours, and this simply isn't the case. I don't mean to say it's better over here, but we have a different system.

However, I wish it was, because the stronger your economy will be, the more we can do for eachother.

Maybe not only, but main for sure. On the other hand without EU entry Baltic states wouldn't be on such roller coaster now. Paradox, isn't it?

You could vieuw it as a paradox, but roller coaster or not, I think you'll be happy to have been on that roller coaster once everything has calmed down. I wish everyone well, it seems we're all in for the same ride..

News / The Polish Economy and its future [101]

Thx for correction. It means that in total GDP PPP terms, Poland already reached Holland.

No they haven't. Unless you're paying 248.000 € for a house. (Average housing price here at the moment!) Not even mentioning the huge difference in tax, prices and salary.

I'm just saying that if we were to lower our taxes with only one percent, we would see a dramatic increase in wealth already. We have this system, because it enables us to invest heavily in public healthcare, aid programs and infrastructure.

The only reason Poland has more stability at the moment is because of all the funding from other EU members. I'm happy to hear that this crisis hasn't affected you guys too bad, but don't blow your own trumpet just yet. It's the same for everyone world-wide, and thanks to a few greedy people who refuse to listen, I don't think we've seen the last of this crisis yet. I don't think anyone can predict the outcome.

Not being pessimistic or negative, just being realistic. Things need to change dramatically, but I don't see much changing to be honest. I hear a lot of pep-talk, but I don't see too much action.

I wish people could do more for themselves, there are a lot of people with great ideas out there, but unfortunately the oil industrials seem to think differently. No matter how you look at this, we will run out of oil and gas one day, and some people say this will start to happen within the next ten years.

Let's hope so. Maybe that'll change something for the better.
