Polish-foreigner marriages increasing

Often, the foreign-born spouse will speak to his/her mate in the foreign-born partner's source language. Even more often however, imagine the Italian-born wife, for instance, of a Polish man (as well as vice-versa) speaking to their non-native English speaking partner in ENGLISH, rather than Italian or Polish, the native language of the person who's intermarried into the host culture:-)

I can't even think of the chaos that must resultLOL It would be like the blind leading the blind, even if both partners (think that they!!!) know English more or less fluently.

"DAMN...POLES NEED SOME VARIETY IN THEIR DNA, LANGUAGE, CULTURE AND RELIGION.
IT'S TOO HOMOGENEOUSCOUNTRY TO EXIST IN EU."

No , They don't.

Don't come with this ridiculous speech that polish culture and religion must be weakened. This is just not true.

Actually is exactly the opposite: What made Poland strong and resist so many agressions until now was EXACTLY the social cohesion of the polish culture and religion.

Intermarriage may be common, it is doubtful though whether or not it necessarily will culturally strengthen or weaken the host country:-)

What are you on about? Until 1945, Poland was always an ethnically and religious diverse country, and still is today to a more limited extent.

Point of fact is that Poland remains a more or less ethnically homogeneous nation, where nearly the entire population can trace their ancestors to Slavic roots!

And what good did come from that? Volksdeutsches and Banderowcy.

It remains a truism that if a foreigner marries a Pole and the couple decides to live in Poland as opposed to the foreigner's home country, chances are the language spoken at home would NOT be that of the native-born spouse:-)

It's hilarious how you all are missing the fact that in Poland there is more females than males in age group 18-40. So if this women want to find a husband they HAVE TO look for foreigners, otherwise they will be single till the end of their lifes.
eh?

OK, in brief then, wjtk, you're simply saying that there's a shortage of (elligible) Polish males per every Polish female. Is that it?

wjtk , it's exactly the opposite.

Actually, by age 30 there are more women than men, because (in my opinion) young men are more likely to emigrate than young women. There are no accurate statistics regarding how many Poles have moved to other EU countries (remember, no passport control internally except to UK, and while UK may or may not record entry of other EU nationals, other EU countries do NOT records the departure of their own citizens). So existing statistics cover only those that deliberately registered themselves as non-residents. I say there are more women based on nothing more than personal observations. For example, recently I advertised an engineering job, and surprisingly, about 55% of applicants were women, which is highly unusual in engineering jobs by the way.

That's because you live in Warsaw. Most regions of Poland has excess of men aged 25-30.

Certainly many men 30+ in this Village/area with no wife and no hope of a wife. (or a job) I thought it was a symptom of being in a very poor peasant farmer type area with not much industry and farms that are family run with no labourers outside of family.

@km123 you might be right in terms of daily observations, but I advertised the job on a leading Polish web portal and received application from (presumably) all over Poland. We did say however that the job is based in Szczecin.
