UK, Ireland / Study about Polish immigrants in England [29]

Yes but Mien I am not saying the questions are too simple, I am saying they are badly written, as well as being skewed.
If you need the services of an academic proofreader/editor WITH market research experience (which you do, if you want to receive a good mark) do feel free to PM me.

UK, Ireland / Study about Polish immigrants in England [29]

having worked a bit in market research and marketing I can assure you that those are 'loaded' questions - not a question of 'not being PC' more a question of skew and bias,

and very far from any academic standards that I have seen in my more recent work as an academic proofreader and editor.

Also what I really don't like is 'Englishman' when I suppose he is referring to the population of the UK. (ie English N Irish Scottish or Welsh, man or woman) I am surprised as I would have thought that educational standards would be higher in the Netherlands.

The funniest thing is that us English are supposed to be the uneducated ones of Europe if you listen to any Dutch or Germans, they are soooo superior!

And my final whinge is the low standard of English of the whole thing!

UK, Ireland / Scots better than Poles? [41]

quite interesting tho that the myth of 'scottishness' such as the kilt, the bagpipes, braveheart was all an english invention to make large wads of cash.

perhaps the scottish do not actually exist either but are just a commercial enterprise
tee hee
scottish widows indeed.
i went to school with thatt bird by the way. in London

UK, Ireland / Scots better than Poles? [41]

interesting question tho polonius, many if not most of the so called "British" inventors were Scottish, Logie Baird, Robert Stevenson, Alexander Fleming..et etc repeat til fade ...have often wondered why this is so...possibly the Protestant work ethic, possibly the decision not to prioritise their language politically (unlike the Welsh for example).....

I am sure someone else might have some suggestions....

Love / Fresh, wholesome country lass in Poland - getting married and going back to the US [167]

Not everyone wants to marry a hand-me-down slut. Can you blame them

what concerns me about your attitude, oh sorry your friend's attitude is that you are seeing men as people ('everyone') and women as a commodity, as 'other'.

how many women has your 'friend' been with?
honestly I am not surprised that you, oh sorry he, are single at your age with that kind of misogynistic attitude.

Study / I want to move Poland from Chicago area and study.. Job prospects, cost of food, healthcare, other expenses [24]

One is that the American language does differ from the English (UK) language. The way things are written and said is somewhat different, I don't know if it would be very tiresome to study in an accent that is different to me!

the differences are miniscule - if you want to study in Europe cos it is cheaper, obvs some things are going to be different - as you are already complaining about the possibility of people speaking english in a different accent to yours, i would say that studying abroad is really not for you. Your 'culture' is American not European.

History / Poland is a Catholic country [177]

we all know there are those who may find the syphlitic tarts gawking out of the windows of Hamburg's St Pauli and other such venues to be culturally and aesthetically more pleasing. À chacun son goût!

please Polonius,this is hardly an appropriate place to share your dark fantasies!

They are just rude and inconsiderate and probably feel superior to you, also they are probably talking about you in a rude way, esp the women.

Life / Is multi-culti in Poland bankrupt? [73]

yeh and Turkish, people like to forget that....
besides 'multi kulti' simply means giving similar importance to all represented religions within education.
It means nothing in the way that it has been adopted as a generic insulting term by people with their own agenda.

Genealogy / Do you think all Slavs are white? [178]

My family are Irish, I was born in England. My friend, in my it is true that many English people do not consider the Irish to be white. Yes, it is completely stupid but the English are very touchy on the subject of race

Love / English women and polish man who ran off with my life savings [22]

so why bang on about it Roz?

i am not "banging on" about anything, that was the first time i posted, just questioning the previous post. Sorry I thought the whole point of a forum was questioning and discussion?

I would certainly not wish to insult the OP, this kind of thing could so easily happen to any of us.
