Life / What is the reason for POLISH jokes ? [486]
Minorities get jokes made about them - it's just an extension of play ground bullying.
It's not fair, it's ungrounded but it's life

Love / Polish Girls vs Russian Girls [813]
My hugely intellectual contribution to this debate is that the flight to see one in their home country tends to be longer from London for Russian Girls. Beyond this I do not wish to generalise further.
Have a nice day everyone. Just remember that your special person could come from anywhere in the world so don't worry about the rest.

Love / Polish Girls vs Russian Girls [813]
Can we end this thread please as it’s getting me down big time. I have worked in both countries over an extended period of time. Not once in either country was I approached to ‘take me out of here darlink’ by beautiful women whose husbands/boy friends were drunks, serial abusers, adulterers etc. Having read this thread again it would appear that my age and ugliness must be terminal , hence I am very depressed.
IMHO women in both countries are charming, well educated (on the whole) and not as desperate as some of the idiots posting here would have us believe (how many of them have ever been to Russia?) . There are good and bad people in both countries as there are in every country in the world.
I am now going away to put a paper bag over my head and lie down in a darkened room. :)

Life / Mothers day in Poland [19]
For the first time ever I deliberately didn't pester the boys to remind them about Mother's Day. The eldest one sent flowers via teleflora from Canada, the middle one sent a card and some music from Uni and followed it up with a call once he got up from his St Pat's Day revelries and the youngest one made breakfast in bed for his Mum. I was dumbfounded but very proud of them.
No doubt the begging letters will follow but for now, good on 'em.

Not for me.... there's this 2000 year old Italian girl I'm interested in....
On the original topic it is never too late to learn any new skill in life. I was skiing with a 75 year old bloke this year. His first try at it. The time you stop learning is the time you start decaying.

Then I suggest you take the time to frame your comments better the first time around because the way it read it was racist. Full stop. If you had taken the time to explain yourself in the manner of your last post it would not have been interpreted in the way it was. Simple really.
If they can get women,you can get as well.I do not underestimate them,nor do I make racist comments.

True. Also the written word is not adequate when discussing shall we say 'delicate' topics. You need to see the person to understand them.
You are right,there is a small cultural gap
