History / Should we glorify Polish secondary female characters from history? [36]

no silly it was one of those reel to reel jobs - (showing my age!) - you know , darkened room, whirr whirr, all v. exciting

Famous Polish women to glorify - errm ... Ewa Kłobukowska?

and why have you dug up a famous woman whose gender was...dubious, varsovian?
to show that 'real' women cannot achieve?

Lols, you tell the OP off for using *wimmin* as its outdated 1970s rhetoric then you come out with that nonsense ....

well done isthatu you have won the 'spot the obvious' prize!!!!
you win any two items of your choice from your nearest Oxfam!
please apply to me for details.

What did you think back then when you heard about it? In what context was it used?

interesting question zeti, it was shown re the start of ww2 and at the time I thought.......wow.....Poland didn't stand a chance....;(

not sure that was the pic, tho isthatu, it was actually a moving picture with Polish cavalry gallopping at the tanks with sabres.

exactly Barney - not a 'special case' to 'advance the cause of wimmin's rights' (jesus varsovian - get a grip) - just a scientific genius along with Einstein etc., not a 'secondary character'!!!

interestingly I attended a very famous girls' school that was at the forefront of women's education in the nineteenth century, and still had the impression

that Maria Curie was some kind of assistant to her husband.....I think it was the tone of the history books more than the school though.

The whole tone of your post is unpleasant Varsovian. The correct spelling of women is 'women' not 'wimmin' which is pure 1970/80s and I suspect you are using it for a cheap laugh.

Women have been written out of history, that is fact.(except for monarchs as you say)
I do kind of agree that Mary Seacole has been 'done to death' ( there was even a mural of her where I used to live in South London) but for years she was ignored because of her colour, when in fact she did a whole lot more nursing than Florence Nightingale ever did. did you know that most of Flo's patients died and she spent years lying around in bed being depressed about it? no? well that is because I suspect you know very little about either of them.

written history has traditionally been all about white men, dates of battles etc.
for example when we learn about ww2 at school we were shown Polish cavalry gallopping at tanks. IMO that was a cut and paste job.

the fact that more or less every woman in Berlin between the age of 8 and 80 was raped when the Russians arrived is of no interest to your average male historian.

let us deconstruct the word 'history' - HIS- STORY - not herstory is it?
as barney said, many of us do not realise that history is more than a list of kings and battles.
undoubtedly there have been heroic women in all countries, consigned to the bin of 'history'.
i did read a book about a fascinating Polish woman who was a spy in the war, damned if i can remember her name.
ok i couldnt find her but i found another!!

Life / Polish vs British vs American - Clash of cultures [390]

At least once every six months

seriously ?
what do you think they will find up there? fungus or teeth or something?
you know that's not for your benefit right? it is for the benefit of perverted gynaecologists who want to control the dangerous vagina
as part of the patriarchal system?
Just saying.

I didn't mean to be rude, I was just observing, every nation looks different, not in the face, but in style.
There's no need for that Piorun, every country has its underclass.
I doubt she will be at Oxford or Edinburgh uni any time soon, you know, where the really stupid Brits hang out.

the language is a bit of a giveaway with Polish people......and a particular fashion look ....
like if there's a couple in lidl where the woman is wearing a ski jacket, jeans and stiletto heels and has her hair dyed red and the guy has a number one haircut and

they are moaning loudly at each other in Polish...it's a bit of a giveaway..
i honestly couldn' t tell who was lithuanian, hungarian etc., though, but i could have a good guess.

Love / ARE POLISH GIRLS GOLD-DIGGERS? [359]

I would say it's English women who are the bigger moneygrabbers.

neither me nor any of my english female friends are 'moneygrabbers' - without exception we have our own businesses or good jobs.
thanks

UK, Ireland / How much people in UK are manipulated by false anty- Polish propaganda [37]

Do the homework for yourself . Lots of examples to study in your media . The recent propaganda by BBC of pre Euro 2012 situation in Poland , wouldn`t be enough for you ?

quite honestly moania, why should I, it is you that is making sweeping generalisations not backed up by links or fact, not me.
besides if we are so intellectually inferior, as ifor bach said, how come so many want to come to our relatively successful country.....

No need for the name calling, play fair.

You seem also to be describing yourself.

sweety i am not the one who thinks 'muslim' and 'hindu' are nationalities - i simply have a caps key that doesn't work. - not quite in the same league is it.

and being so rude and racist to kaz when she said she was proud to be british was not called for.
picking out missing capitals and saying 'talking about yourself' is not really valid argument, just silly.

tommy you are an uneducated fool and an embarrassment to british people like me and kaz.
you do know that 'muslim' is a religion not a nationality i suppose.
and where does someone with 'hindu' blood come from just out of interest?
you sound like the product of several generations of white trash
