Life / Is Poland a poor country? [578]

We are not as economically strong, but we are moving great strides everyday!

UK, Ireland / Are british getting ready to expell "Eastern Europeans" ? [16]

Racist when they expel us and good folks some of ours wish to expel other foreign immigrants?

On this occassion, if they expel good working class people just because they are of another race - then its racist and it should be equivalent to ethnic cleansing.

News / Don't let Poland become like my country, France. [630]

French are the shame of Europe.

Poles will write he history of new Europe oneday.

Life / Multiracial Poles [154]

Thats not the point I guess. The point is that Poles can only contribute to beautiful and warm beings ... and the proof is scattered in every continent :)

Life / Multiracial Poles [154]

Yeah .. her grandmother (bangladesh one) was not quite comfortable with the idea of a daughter in law from a foreign land. But seems like things turned all in this young girls favor once she visited bangladesh with her dad. Her whole family did visit later as far as I know and they all seem to be having a great time.

People are afraid of the unknown and love to draw quick conclusions to keep themselves inside a box ... while the world beyond is much too nice not to attract successive generations!

Life / Multiracial Poles [154]

Here is my elder sister's friend's daughter (my elder sister's friend married a bangladesh man and hence their kids are half Polish and half Bangladesh) girl describing her trip to Bangladesh. It is interesting.

This is a bright and sincere girl with very good moral values as we know and respect alot. Kind and intelligent as well. Wonderful video indeed. Hopefully she'll be an example of a woman in today's planet which needs examples so badly.

Poor girl lost the video she compiled of her trip, but still was determined to make a video from her memories. Wonderful life becomes with families that are warm :) ...

Have a nice time watching.

Love / Unmarried couples in Poland = pathology [310]


I agree with Polonius and I think it is you who live in a world with complete lack of reality.

Marriage is the only way forward for a proper family, anything else comes from deceit-shying away from responsibility-cowardice-distructive-perverted and shapeless ideologies.

Marriage is FREEDOM with respect to all. Freedom without respect to community and society is anarchy.

Within marriage a person can be free to choose his/her partner ... beyond race and religion. They take responsibility, accept each other physically+spiritually+legally and loyally. This is priceless.

I dont know how loving unmarried "live in" couples claim themselves to be ... they are a picture of incomplete and doubtful life. A great curse for their children, and a disadvantage to the growth of a proper social framework or a national legal system.

Love / My Polish girlfriend's mother called her a prostitute because we live together [113]


Although money is also just a piece of paper ... you do need it to buy food. A brick is just a denser form of clay, you need it for home. A stone is a denser form of dust only, but you need it for construction ... and a certificate again is a colored piece of paper, but you do pursue it. A bill is a paper too ...

It is coming into accordance ... being human.... having laws and regulations that consitute a human social structure. There is no need to demonise it unnecessarily ... rather learn to be better with ourselves and make our life more streamlined.

As for the marriage paper ... it is a great momento for a couple. I can guarantee you that. I know it is for us (me and my wife). But not only that, it has many other meanings and implications that we respect and honor. Never felt it was a burden... because it is not. It is a law, and we are not anarchic or lawless. Even the jungle does have laws... however we are human and thus there is more about us.

News / Amnesty to Illegal immigrants in Poland [102]

We shouldnt welcome illegal immigrants ... rather we should relax our foreign student fee and other visa hurdles and include them as immigrants. This will give our society more benefit than inviting illegal immigrants who just get in through shady means.

USA, Canada / If America is so bad, why move here? [254]


No one is going to USA from here plasticpole. Ironically you are in Polish forums instead. :)

We are warm and respectable enough to listen to you, but we do maintain our right to clarify your misconceptions. Plus, I never saw a thread by Poles saying similar things to USA people. We never have been this arrogant, maybe its just not a part of us.

I don't. But alas your dictionary seem to be confined to this: "You are either with us, or against us".

Love / Malaysian Girl with Polish Guy... any chance together? [16]

My wife is a South Korean ... and I'm a Polish from Lodz.

I don't think your racial or any other factor really did push him away. Plus, dont say he "Rejected" you. Maybe he had other issues with himself... maybe he felt attracted to your East Asian appeal, and it is nice that he mentioned such nice things to you. Probably he was attracted to you, but there are things other than those merely visible to the naked eye. Maybe he has issues with coming too close to someone, and prefers not to be hurt and rather live alone.

As you say, you are very social and very frank ... maybe because he is more of an introvert, he felt that you two would not be comfortable in the long run. Or that he might not be able to keep you happy with himself.

Its all maybes ... but one thing for sure....if he said so many nice things to you, he meant them... and there are reasons which only he knows due to which he chose to move away and not push forward a relationship which to him might not have worked for you, rather than for him. He can be wrong, but humans make mistakes.

Warm wishes... and I've landed on to Malaysia, which is a beautiful country with lovely people.

USA, Canada / If America is so bad, why move here? [254]

I've rarely seen a USA person to be able to take critism or disinterest in them or their country in a normal manner. It seems its always "Either you are with me or against me" for them. This is unfortunate and sign of a very violent inner nature which suffocates the TRUE FREEDOM of everyone and propogates its own form of freedom where whatever it does, whatever it may be like ... people must obey to its ways, its perspectives, its values and ideals, its dictatorship around the world and their own affairs. Everyone must say "Ohhhh wow!!!!.... UsAaAaaAa.... my dReAm.... OhHhHh how I wanna be there OhHhHh.... Hail Hail Hail!!!" ... only then you are a GOOD MAN. But hey...beware lest you say "doh whatever ... not interested ... US or what?... whatever.... fine come like any other tourist and HEY??? What do you mean why if you are so bad why come???... We're not interested in your good or bad as long as you keep your arrogant nature in a distance, and no! Most of us are not interested to MOVE to your place"

Be happy and remember, every nation respects themselves ... and dont make a fool of yourself thinking that we are dying to come to you. Yes, there are poors and who dont see anything for them unless they move into the USA labor market .... but remove that and USA is nothing interesting for anyone in this world.

To be free a person must be ready internally, being in USA doesnt give it. Freedom is bigger than your country where you are yourself fighting for it everyday and getting beaten up on streets just for protesting (which ironically doesnt get aired...iron curtain?)...

Anyways ... still I would respect all those good people who live in USA and know which word to use where .... surely they are not ignorant and arrogant, and feel ashamed of those who display it (like in this thread, and the usa ppl posting here).

Another thing...STOP calling yourself "America" ... America is bigger than USA ... are you ashamed to take your countries name that you have to bring in a continent to identify yourself?....

Poles always called their country Poland first and then a part of Europe ... not the other way round.

USA, Canada / If America is so bad, why move here? [254]


Every country is the best ... but my country is THE BEST for ME! :) ... so I do not need immigration numbers for it.

USA, Canada / If America is so bad, why move here? [254]

I didnt say anything hateful against the US of A ... I don't know why I am being framed as such!

You like you country doesnt mean that everyone must bow to it. You don't need to expect such from Poles!

I think a better country is Japan or a better country is South Africa ... even better would be many other places but US of A! Although I do not curse the Americans by saying this ... it is just hilarious when some US of A people take everyone who are not bowing to them or on their side to be theri enemy... it makes us remember these words "You are with us, or against us!!!". Whoa!!!... hello ... sorry but there are some who take you only as just another country and people and moreover with a lot to improve on. Mind your own flaws and trust me you will find a horrifying many!

Yes I do still think that its all about the LURE OF MONEY which drives (or used to drive) people to the USA. The land of opportunities they said right? So there is it for you.

And ofcourse, best of luck ... my country and many other countries truely have alot more to offer often ... and an increasing number of Poles (and also many around the world, I bet even in the poorer countries of the world) find USA boring and just not there to attract them to go to. Ofcourse this doesnt mean that the lure of money is over ... just let USA bleed dry out of its cash, and we'll see how many wish to go there, or infact REMAIN there (for those who are already there)!

SORRY TO SAY THAT THIS THREAD ON POLISHFORUMS IS NOTHING BY A SYMBOL OF THE REKNOWNED USA ARROGANCE. WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT. "NO THANKS", NOT INTERESTED TO SAY ... WE WILL DO BUSINESS, TRADE, MAYBE TOUR (AND YOU ARE WELCOME TOO), BUT TO STAY? - MY COUNTRY IS THE BEST! :)

Why this irrelevant question southern? He is not my president.

USA, Canada / If America is so bad, why move here? [254]


Believe me Ms. Plastic Pole ... the only, and yes "ONLY" lure that takes people America is "MONEY" ... yep, from M to Y its all money that takes them to the US and absolutely nothing else but that.

Atleast for Poles...

I for one have nothing against the USA as long as it keeps its nose out of Poland ... and I for one will never move to USA with plans to stay in it!!!

Study / Information Needed: Skarbek University, Warsaw. [57]

You guyz should've tried in here: kozminski.edu.pl/en/

Or University of Lodz ... or Warsaw ... I mean where you can get good business faculties...

I can assure that you might get good jobs too ... but you need to select good university, have good friends, plus know some useful languages for the firm. I didn't see any foreigner who decided to stay in Poland die hungry till now...

Also ... what made you choose Poland from all other nations?

Life / Multiracial Poles [154]

Its probably everyone's own personal choice, I like the comment below:


=====

However, this is a multiracial poles thread ... so lets keep in context.

Thank you so much :)... I hope everything turns out fine.

I spend more time with her now ... and try to understand her needs, also in these times there are many feelings that need to be cared for in ones wife. Its my first time too ... we're being together in this :). Also, these are the times when you really get to know how precious is a family ... my sisters and my parents, also hers, are being a great support! Lets hope for the best ... :)

Life / Multiracial Poles [154]

I'm expecting a little POLISH-KOREAN child soon in Lodz :) ... it will be beautiful!

In any conditions ... I feel that mixed race children can be really special, it is more than often that they take the best of both the races, they look as the rightful heirs of the whole world! The planet exactly as it is and should be, without borders in its natural self ... most beautiful and radient!... with hope filled into them... for a peaceful world.

Off-Topic / American Girl with A Polish Heart [29]


Don't get nostalgic so much, that you end up being blind.

Marry a lovely man and be happy :), let being Polish or American or any other be a coincidence... just my 2 cents as they say :D :)...

Poland and Poles are people who always had a big heart, and we love the world and all its people. Yes there are disturbing specimens, but those are pain personified, and they never could subdue the free and sincere Polish heart, which was always a part of this whole world, not just a race, continent or a culture.

Thank you for coming to PF, I wish you will contribute here positively :)

Off-Topic / Countries and your associations in 5 words/descriptions. [56]

Poland: History, beauty, peace, love, possibilities, HOME
India: Taj Mahal, Swami Ramdev, Kerela, Lotus Temple
Ireland: Friendliest people, bright future, lovely scenic countrysides.
England: Diverse, food, business
S. Korea: Smiles, tradition, hospitality, friendliness
Bangladesh: Beach, unfortunate little children, super rich few, sharp contrasts in wealth and living standards (unbelievable difference between rich and poor).
Greece: History, monuments, Olympic, islands
Spain: Beach, culture, unique in entire Europe.
... many more ... and all are unique.

Love / The constant unfortunes of Polki - Polish women [16]


Midas is a Polish hater ... and a pervert to begin with...

Seanus will say anything to keep the number of his posts increasing :D ...


:D ... ya ya blab on ... :D ... I've been married and settled ... being virgin till the right woman isn't bad at all but how'd u know? ... U'r neither a virgin not a used one ... u'r living the life on a box :)

Tell your legendary tales ... u'll get your worshipers :D


Its nothing ... its a hyped up story made by the living genius among us ... :D

People have problems but they work their way through it ... its not like its anything specific to any race ... and neither would any sound woman or man go ahead to share their family matters with a pervert. So you figure...

Love / The constant unfortunes of Polki - Polish women [16]


ha ha :D Patty ... you gonna fall for southern's thesis? ... his "polki' is his imagination :D ... I'm telling you that ...

Specially this thread, and the other two he made at the same time ... as reactions to his helplessness :) ...

But had he been a better man, I would really wish he get a Pole for him :D ... a Polish girl ... but never would wish such bad luck to any girl, considering what southern is (atleast what he seems to be).

Love / I met a Polish guy but wonder what his intention is.. [35]


:) ... PERFECT :)


I can understand her pain. I know my friend and he lives in USA ... he did similar things :( ... although he is my childhood friend, but really not right! I told him of my disgust as his actions with the lady ... but then he said its life and to move forward one must be strong, and not emotional like me :S ...

Its better to be emotional than strong like that ...

Its a jungle out there ... what can I say ... you need to really know the person. Sometimes among that crowed of wolves, there is a true pure lover as well :)


How do you expect she would learn about somebody who is systematically PLANNING to get her heart broken after a certain period of time. Do you know that there are "gang" kind of structures some people make where they help and guide each other in return of some fee to first get married to the girl and then divorce?

Yes, I'm a Polish and very sensitive about my country's image ... but never at the cost of an innocent girl's self esteem no matter where she is from. I think she would have no clue. Polish ones who have such an aim don't want to go the way of other passport seekers who would directly find such a contract girl and straight at face offer an amount for a fake marriage. Instead they would go after a normal girl and play with her ... this is safer with the law too. They are more clever ...

Its sad ... all very disgusting and sad ... but then its a truth that many of us know. I for once won't hide it for the sake of pride ... truth is truth ...

USA, Canada / Polish-Americans as seen in the false mirror. Type A and Type B. [141]


Well I didn't know guess who had no Polish background ...

But hey hey hey.... calm down :D ... what do you mean by saying this? Americans are perfect in being united and unanimous? .. Oh Pleaseeee ... don't need to be so bright already Antek! ... I don't think they are any different from us when it comes to certain issues. Infact they have more challenges than us ...

They are a country with a beautiful diversity, I do agree that they are moving together forward. But in that also there are deep misunderstanding and variations in opinions due to cultural influence in their decision making system. They are a diverse set of sub-cultures which are no match for any of the Polish sub-culture available.

There is no comparison between Poland and America. While I completely agree that USA have some great attributes which I always wish Poland could follow, but that doesn't make Political differences or variety of conflicting opinions in the American society absent ... :)

I would like to see some diversity among Poles too :) ... as you know :D, I've been a motivator for that. But for that too I have a thread and its not an all out. However, with the friends I have who got settled in Poland through marriages and coming from greatly diverse societies even races ... they also tend to become immersed with Poland (I am sticking to those who are my friends ... and Poland being such a homogenous country, they have no other option really as they become as Polish as possible to manage their own families which is understandable). However, this is not applicable to UK or USA where people actually prefer to maintain as much as possible their native or ancestral culture :) ... it makes the opinions and thinking process of the country not have THREE OPINIONS ONLY ;) ... BUT PROBABLY THREE HUNDRED :D ...

But they still move along ... because its in the right direction as per such a diverse country should go. Its the greatest melting pot of the world ... and if you see some Animation movies :), they always picture themselves as some different Darkish color with a white man's features etc ... some new thing as per I could notice (you can notice too if you see those animation movie with futuristic themes) ... They are headed that way .. and you know what? I think they will remain SUPER POWERS and the world's most attractive country~! ... and YOU KNOW WHAT MORE??? ... I want that :D ...

Anyways ... there you go :) ... three opinions? ... :D ... just be happy its not 300... ... yet :P!


Who pushes you out? ... they must be mad :D .. seriously crazy :) ...

But if you read my post ... I am really not thinking of getting Polams to NOT BE POLES ... They are Poles partly and they infact should be given all privileges ... but when it comes to voting... how relevant do you think a Polam will be? :) ... I mean, give all privileges and all facilities, ... but anyone before voting should stay atleast one unbroken reign of a government to understand the country's requirements... right? :)

USA, Canada / Polish-Americans as seen in the false mirror. Type A and Type B. [141]


:D ... yeah yeah I know ant ...

Don't you see what she wrote? ... She wrote "Everyone else" and "we" signifying EVERYOTHER COUNTRY'S MEDIA/INTELLIGENCE (INCLUDING POLISH) AS "EVERYONE ELSE" ... while again pointing out the USA MEDIA/INTELLIGENCE AS HER'S (US).

^^ ... this was what I was trying to point out towards her.

If you read my post BEFORE that, I think I am much more OK and RESPECTFUL to Polams than most would be in this thread (apart from Polams themselves) :)

USA, Canada / Polish-Americans as seen in the false mirror. Type A and Type B. [141]


By using that "us" and also the "everyone else" ... do you mean Poland = Everyone else; and USA = us ... in your case? ;) ...

Anyways ... look at the "allegedly" word before you come to concrete conclusions :) ...
