Language / Give me some reasons to learn Polish [126]

The part about learning the culture is fine.
But the moment you start trashing English and assume Polish is superior, you loose me completely. I don't know why you compare classic Polish arts to present day English/American sit-coms. Are you under the impression that Poland does not have trash TV or England, worthy classics?

And immerse the planet in Chopin and Mickiewicz?

immerse it in 1800's?? I hope not, regardless of the nationality.

Language / Give me some reasons to learn Polish [126]

Of course, learning is always good, and practical applications should not be only reasons.
I still think that in, oh, I don't know... conservatively, in 4-5 generations, everyone in Poland will be able to speak English.
And many other countries, as well.
Not sure what are you talking about, lyzko, but, to each its own.

Language / Give me some reasons to learn Polish [126]

The reasons for all these different languages was that we only needed to communicate with those that are in close, geographically, proximity.
Boy, how things have changed... now, more than ever, we need one language for all.

wait, you're treated unfairly because you have blond hair, are intelligent and funny and culturally superior? That is outrageous.

Love / Best way to find a Polish husband...ideas? [120]

at least you should consider the possibility that you don't know what the majority of latinos like.
The truth is that overwhelming majority of them think that latin women are the hottest in the world.

like I said, romantically you're free to be as unreasonable as you want, it's the heart that chooses, not head.

It's the narrow field of people you said you like to "associate" yourself with that I was hoping you would reconsider. Among the different cultures you might find the tall blond travelers that can enrich your life.

Ah.. the majority.. I'm beginning to see what you mean by backward small town mentality.

You are grouping two completely different sets of characteristics that should not get mixed up: ones we can do something about, like the 'crowd', education, even economic status, and one that is completely beyond our control, like ethnicity or color of eyes.

In the matters of finding a mate, it is accepted that "looks" have a lot to do with what we find attractive, but believe me, most people would feel silly admiting that they only like to associate themselves with tall, blond people, for example.

this seems oddly familiar... didn't we do this about a year or so ago? There was a girl here complaining of a lack of eligible bachelors, she had a strict father and listed being white as one of her proud accomplishments?

Raleigh? I don't know, Polka, these are no backward little towns - it is supposed to be a research center, has many high tech companies, decent schools... Duke University!

Are you over 18?
