UK, Ireland / Why British men move to Poland [63]

Yes,most Polki are rather slim by western standards.Fortunately.
Fat women are supposed to be more happy on the other hand while slim are often neurotic.Although I am a fan of the heavy Slavic type,I also do my favors to the feather category.

Love / Polish girls fall for Indian guys ? [217]

Anyways ... in your particular case, I think Warsaw was a better choice. But if you like Indian women so much, there cannot be a better place than UK can there?

Maybe New Delhi.

Work / If you were to compere Polish Unis and Unis/Colleges in your country... [75]

As a memorizer I heavily dislike the American exam system which tries to shortlist and create obstacles to memorizers.Why should sb who knows less get better grades because he happened to study smaller but more relevant books?Or why do they not give the same grade value to all questions of the exam?The US system is a lot about golden average and not about extreme deviations.

I also don't like how they play with your psychology and physical insurance during the exam.I mean after 5 hours one will be tired.Why does he have still to answer easy questions where he most likely will make a mistake due to fatigue and not due to lack of knowledge?And why they don't let you have second time the exam when you already know the mechanism it is based on?And not reveal the mechanism to other students due to penalties in such a case?In my country the more intelligent you are and the more time you study the better grades you get,they don't play with your psychology,fatigue and deviation from the average or your ways to beat the system.

Love / Good looking Polish women with ugly men [416]

I don't know.They are both deep.Unfortunately my ancestors come from regions of Greece where people were slaves( to the Spartans and Macedonians) so no pureness here.Anyway I can understand much of ancient Greek language many words have still remained the same.The language of Evangelia is completely comprehensible.

Sometimes when these historians write is like describing modern Greeks some character traits have remained the same.We just moved more towards gypsiness and barbarosity it is the heavy influence of the Turk.

This is probably the most sensible thing you've said. I'm impressed! ;)

I didn't know you are interested in ancient Greek culture.I feel both Greek and Balkan blood streaming in me so sometimes I am the one and sometimes the other.For sure there is sth from our ancient forefathers.

Ancient Greeks believed in harmony.They never built sth too big like Pyramids or anything disproportionate.They had human as measure of everything.Asian folks built huge monuments to express the power of the king and their Gods.

Asian mentality crashed greek one in the battles of Marathon and Salamina where the greek ideal of individuality and liberty defeated the asian despotism and saved Europe.

or Alkibiades?

Yes,very famous marshalll and lover.He even seduced the wife of the king of Sparta who called her son Alkiviades among her friends.He also seduced hundreds of Athenian and Persian high society women won all battles but had a horrible death because Athens,Sparta and Persian Empire were betrayed by him in a row and wanted his head.

I see here new macho quality

The Greeks believed in fact that each man needs at least three women.One for the housework,one for sex and one for intellectual conversations.The latter who offered sex and intellectual conversations were called etairas and some of them achieved great deal of power and became protectors and sponsors of poets,painters and other artists.

why did Greeks often like to depict male-male intimate situations on vases

Because Greeks considered male-male relationship as of much higher intellectual quality than the ordinary male-female relationship and that male-male love was much more pure and deeper.So Alkiviades for example was the most popular lover for women and lover of men.

Slavic women are used to the presence of ugly men.I remember first time in Poland when my Polka showed me the men on the street and told me in despair: now you see why polish women are so desperate?
