News / 30 to 40 thousand abortions by Polish girls in foreign countries [142]

you mean moral or legal responsiblity?

well, the fact the the woman is the one who has to find a solution. Most of the posters blame the situation on women who are sluts, open their legs etc. Nobody mentions why those women decide to have an abortion. There maybe many reasons: the father is not interested in having a child, the woman is single and has no means to support the child, the woman is married but she decided with her husband to have an abortion and so on. The article does not state WHY those women have an abortion.

From the map one can deduct that the richer the country the less abortions women have, therefore the issue is directly linked to economy and the ability to support rising a child, not the moral state of mind, since as we know, Eastern countries in comparison to the West are more religious. So, it is mostly about the MONEY, not about the morals as (some male members) state here.

News / 30 to 40 thousand abortions by Polish girls in foreign countries [142]

You don't have be genius to work out that many of these feminists promoting this issue, have had an abortion in the past and feel a sense of guilt for having killed another human being. Therefore they want to spread the sense of guilt onto the rest of society by legalizing abortions , thinking that this will somehow will make their own guilt disappear-well though luck, you killed a human being and know you have to live with it.

only if it were true. Your speculations are nothing more then just speculations. You seem to blame one group, while the responsibility is shared.

Therefore killing an unwanted human being is no excuse- and some sluts use it as a form of contraception, to them it is nothing more than a cosmetic procedure.

well, maybe the "sluts" are men who make those women pregnant as well. I don't judge people, but according to you it would be good for both sexes to ban the sex altogether then, unless the couple is willing to raise the child.

It is clear from your post that you try to blame everything on women and feminists, but release the men who made those women pregnant from all the responsibility - nice one and not really a real reflexion of the situation.

There are some assumptions how big this scale is. I've read its something like more than 150 000 each year if my memory don't fail.

I really don't know the stats, however from what I understand the responsibility falls onto the pregnant woman, so does the guilt and everything connected with it.

I always thought that in Poland rates of illegal abortions are shockingly high and my fellow country women are irresponsible but it seems that it's the world-wide phenomenom.

if you look at the original post with the map, you would not be saying those thing. how can you form an opinion without knowing the facts? The official data on abortions in Poland (legal) is NOT available due to its illegal nature.

Do in Sweden they consider an abortion as one of the contraceptive method?

you have to ask Swedish people.

have to pay lots of money (but still relatively low) for illegal abortion.

this is not what the article says, that is why many Polish women go abroad, because it is still cheaper then it is in Poland and legal. That is of course for those who can pay.

I don't agree with that stigmatization.

USA, Canada / Moved back from Canada to Poland:). Here are the reasons why. [868]

"What manner of bizarre, dangerous incendiary device is this?"

not that I am not used to them, but often they are dangerous.
Polish weather

It appears that Fuzzy's prayers have been answered for Szczecin to experience some bad Polish weather. It was raining yesterday all day (for the second time in 3 weeks) and it was really cold and windy. Regardless, I had to do errands, so on my stop over at my cousin, I gulped down 1 cup of tea and 1 cup of coffee, followed by a handful of nuts I have given to him 2 weeks ago (well, I left him some) and then followed by a bowl of pyzy. I felt much better and together we went to look for a washing machine for my place. After much deliberation ( I will be stuck with the machine for a number of years), looking at the futures/sizes and so on ( I am glad to report that smaller sizes are now available, besides the large and bulky ones) it looks like I will be a happy owner of the hi tech/ modern looking European design thingy.

I am sure some of you might wonder how I managed without one until now;). That will forever remain a secret;).

Now you have to excuse me, but I need to check if I brought the long jones with me, since even though it is dry today, the temperature outside seem to be quite low.

I am sure Fuzzy has all the numbers;)

anywho: gotta dash, another visit today.

USA, Canada / Do Polish guys like American girls? [103]

OK. Just at home?

I would say so. Either directly, or indirectly. If he respects his mother he will respect other women- simple, there is not rocket science to that;). Nor there is a magnitude in this argument either, so if you are making fun of those fat American women whose pic you so keenly posted, you don't respect them, therefore if your mother would get fat, which I am assuming she is not, you would disrespect her too;). Or maybe your mother pays too much attention to her weight, I don't know.

News / 30 to 40 thousand abortions by Polish girls in foreign countries [142]

your taxes are not spend on it, but the contribution made to ZUS on monthly basis from every single individual who is employed in Poland. Taxes are spent on other matters as I am sure you know.

If you don't want all those abortions, please provide homes, food and education to all those to be aborted children then.

The issue is that other then Polish National Health System pays for those abortions, such as UK. Why would UK pay for those abortions? It it NOT the British system responsibility.

It is not the issue that you don't want to take the responsibility for abortions, because you are NOT, unless you make your wife pregnant and then tell her to get an abortion.

However, abortions are part of life and always have been, some people just don't want to see it. In that case, those who oppose should provide solution to the problem eg. more money for raring children, longer maternity leaves etc. Do you know that some Polish employers would not hire pregnant women? What is your opinion on THAT issue?

News / 30 to 40 thousand abortions by Polish girls in foreign countries [142]

well, weather the numbers are right or not is not the issue here. The issue here is that women who contribute to the NFZ from their earnings have to go abroad in order to get serviced and strain other countries health system. It is a shame that their own health system has failed them.

So you are saying that feminist organizations like to falsify the numbers in order to get attention? Do you have a proof for that?

I notice that in none of these reports is there a methodology that explains how they come up with this number, let me guess pulled out the duff(:

I am sure if you dig deep enough, you will get the info about their methodology. I did once and got pages of reports. Ask and you will get the answer. Somehow I think this is NOT what you after here.

Another issues is that if women see that there is not enough security (either financial or social) they will not have a child.

It is interesting how ONLY men have commented on this thread. It only proves that some men have an opinion about something they cannot relate to.

1) if you're gonna open your legs to some piece of s'hit then expect the consequences. Or just use a condom!

the same goes for you, doesn't it?

2) this is the beginning of the end. A too liberal society breeds immorality and decadence. Too many abortions is not good for the growth of a country. Try not having so many abortions!

3) Polish b'itches should be more responsible. Just keep the kids! I thought Poles were supposed to be family oriented!

again you have proved that you are a clueless and detached individual, who for some reason missed everything that is going around him.

It looks like Polish girls come around a little :-)

it looks like couples have sex and women get pregnant. Women don't get pregnant by themselves, or they do where you are?

Now, on topic: the access to abortion in Poland is almost non-existant. Feminists, or not, there is a serious issue and if some of men are comfortable with their women abort their babies abroad, instead in their own country, or better: if some men are so irresponsible that they make their women pregnant and let them deal with the problem alone, then I have to say that it reflect more on those men then those women.

It is easy to make a judgement, especially when one cannot bore children and most of your opinions are worth nothing really.

USA, Canada / Moved back from Canada to Poland:). Here are the reasons why. [868]

wise choice. i'll be outta here shortly after you, ducking most of the Polish winter. My wife and I have completely had it with Poland's weather and are off to somewhere with basically no winter.

good for you. Does it mean no nagging from you in the future?

Well, it sure sounds like you've found your way home already!

:)

yes, some glitches along the way as one would expect when moving countries, but I think I have most things under control:).

Polish obsessions
aka passions.
Matches
Polish have obsession with matches, which are still used here. One can buy them anywhere. Sometimes when I use them they produce a little explosion - scary stuff, but this is about as exciting as it gets.

Tiles
If Pole could tile the whole country, he would. Honestly, they are everywhere: all the way to the ceiling in washrooms, on floors, in schools, in government offices (well, in some). Outdoor tiles and indoor tiles are very common here.

Boot
Did I mention boots?
I finally gave up my battle with them. There is no use. I might try high heels in a week or so, but at the moment I am not ready for such an experiment. To sore from walking in boots.

Mutts
there is large number of dogs in my area (including the famous Yorkie in a pink sweater on cold days with a pony tail), but I don't see them being walked for a long time. Owners take them out for a short spin and after that they are back indoors. In general, dogs are very popular.

In Canada there is an informal Association of Dog Owners in parks and if one does not own a dog, there is a fat chance that they will socialize or even talk to you, unless one gets chased by a dog, but that happens very rarely. Most dogs in Canada attend some classes and training, but I guess the fines are too steep to run the risk.

Love / 'Battered husbands' - still a taboo subject in Poland [387]

I throw female fish (and crabs, yabbies etc) back because females produce more fish and that needs to be respected and cherished to sustain the marine ecology. Male fish are expendable if you're after a feed. Germaine Greer taught me that.

ha, ha, post of the day:)

USA, Canada / Moved back from Canada to Poland:). Here are the reasons why. [868]

YES

well, I feel for you and I know from experience(grew up in Poland) how miserable one feels in the Polish fall weather without sun. I used to go to a suntanning salon in the past and it seemed to help. Maybe you have SAD? I know I do, that is why I am very happy when it is sunny.

Oh, I can see it, there's a hole...I see the sun right now! After 48 hours of darkness, the miracles of aphro!

There you go:)
well, maybe you should move to Szczecin then. It has been sunny most of the time since I arrived here and that has been 3 weeks now. I don't like this grey, overcast, musty Polish weather either.

USA, Canada / Moved back from Canada to Poland:). Here are the reasons why. [868]

how long were you in Canada before you moved back to Poland? how old were you when you moved to Canada?

I was in Canada for 8 years. I used to run dzialalnosc gospodarcza before I left therefore I can compare how it was 8 years ago to how things function now. How old was I when I moved back to Canada? Old enough to buy cigarettes and beer;)

1:32 p.m. in Wroclaw, 7 degrees C and no sun, just like yesterday. weather in Szczecin today.....high of 9 degrees C, 82% humidity.

well, it is dry, it is warm enough for me to wear a light jacket and last night at around 9 o'clock pm I was walking in a sweater, but I spent 8 really cold and LONG winters there, so I guess I do have low standard for the weather;), he, he.......sue me for enjoying the Polish weather. Usually at this time of the year it is rainy, dark and cold in Szczecin, so I am happy. Sue me for being happy with what I got;). After all we don't live in tropics, do we? Lack of sun in Wroclaw makes you a nag;)

ZUS.

I have to say that the institution and the way it functions improved quite a LOT. One does not have to wait in lines anymore and the stuff is more cooperative.

I actually went to hand in the form and after 10 minutes I walked out with all the forms (stamped) in my hand, so I don't have to go to ZUS anymore.

From now on my accountant will take care of the rest and I was told that all I have to do is to PAY my monthly contributions.

Urzad Skarbowy will be taken care of by my accountant too, so after some running around during the first week it looks like I will have less to complain then I initially was planning to.

I am almost dissapointed, but in a good way since setting up a business (dzialalnosc gospodarcza) was easier then I thought.

So all I have to do now is to work, make money and enjoy my life a little bit more, then during the first 2 weeks.

The weather is still splendid in Szczecin and it is sunny most of the day. I have most things under control.

Life / Polish "Forfiter" :) [26]

old news. I think McCoy posted that already.

Anyways, every time I see it I have a good laugh. I wonder if "szwagier" was with him on the boat, or he was recording this for "szwagier" to watch later.
