Love / What to Get my Polish Guy for Valentines Day. [77]

hopefully after I graduate college I will ask him to marry me.

I'll keep my fingers crossed for the two of you. I had created a thread sometime ago, regarding a woman making a marriage proposal to a man.

Food / Why is it that some Polish people refuse to eat anything that is not Polish? [120]

Why is it the some polish people refuse to eat anything that is not polish?

Huh? It's not like my family goes cooking up a pot of kapusta on a daily basis. We also don't walk around with a link of kielbasa in our hand, as though it were a finger food.

Perhaps you've watched the movie Polish Wedding too many times...

Why is Polish workmanship so bad?

I have beautiful handcrafted linens made in Polish. The items are gorgeous, displaying perfection and excellent workmanship.

USA, Canada / Do many Polish people in America hate Americans? [592]

minimum wage jobs will probably be the norm for many in the future.

Many businesses including Walmart (home of the working poor) and sweat shops such as Star Crest (aka Slave Crest), only offer many employees part-time work. These tactics enable companies to save bundles of money, by depriving numerous employees very needed necessities of life, such as health care and retirement benefits.

Life / Polish stereotypes of other nationalities!? [472]

Polish stereotypes of other nationalities!?

I've mentioned in other threads before, there are stereotypes that are considered positive ones, such as Asian students being intelligent. In college I usually tried to pair up with Asian students for various group classroom projects. It was kind of like a guaranteed letter grade 'A' for my project.

I've also found other stereotypes sometimes have a kernel of truth. Such as Middle Eastern men being women chasers. Last time I dined at a Middle Eastern restaurant, I practically needed a bodyguard!

Love / How to Make (Polish?) Women happy? [96]

I'm sure you can agree with me that the majority of men have an average salary, live in average houses, and drive average cars..

Simple question: Are all these men single?

True, the majority of people today, tend to marry a person within their own economic social class.

Love / How to Make (Polish?) Women happy? [96]

Are you so spoiled that you cannot tolerate opinions from others?

I'm not spoiled at all. However, negative comments are what some people happen to be mainly about. It's gives them the ultimate pleasure to insult others, for no apparent reason.

How to Make (Polish?) Women happy?

By keeping quiet for a change. Try refraining from making dumb comments about women in general. In other words, some guys need to just sit there & look pretty.

Love / Are there Polish women who date black guys? [281]

Is there Polish women that date black guys?

I'm sure there must be some Polish women that do date black men. I've seen a few Polish women at the Polish church, with mulatto children. Strange thing, I very seldom ever see the black daddy there, with the rest of their family.

Love / Are all Polish men Psychos? [111]

My father wasn't nut. He was gentle with my mother and me, brother and sister.

My Polish daddy was very sane too. One of the nicest, sweetest individuals I've ever known. Very much a caring family man, totally devoted to his wife and children.

Men and Women from Eastern Poland

Most of my family is pretty cool and easy-going. However, my family is mainly from Southern Poland.

Life / Polish stereotypes of other nationalities!? [472]

Some Asian little boys are spoiled-brats. I saw one hit his mom on the arm. He was in the super market, being pushed in the shopping cart. He was angry, because she wouldn't purchase something he wanted her to buy.

I would never dream of doing something like to my mom. If I ever did, I probably wouldn't be able to sit down for at least a week!
