Do Polish people have big noses?

Polish don't have "big" noses - But they certainly have the eastern european nose - pointy and arched. Doesn't make them bad looking but they do.

but sharp/pointy ones

Yes,that's right.It differentitates Poles from Czechs for example who have a smoother nose.(perhaps as result of mix with Germans).

I was just reading this thread and it's hilarious. Thanks for the laugh. I too have a "Polish" nose, not big, but kind of ski slope like. (No pun intended). I inherited it from my grandfather. This may seem strange, but often I can distiguish some Polish people by their facial features and that includes their slender, long noses. :)

Proud Pole.

You're "friend" is a tad bit ignorant. All Slavic people share similar genes, but big noses are not a major feature in a Polish face, there are many genetic studies you can google on Slavs and Poles.

My genetics prof said that there was a study in 2000, 2003 etc. about the most attractive people in the world based on Science, face proportion etc. and Polsh women were number 1 followed by Venezuelan women, and Polish guys scored pretty well, so I guess you can tell your friend that BIG NOSES are a positive thing ;). But no, it;s not true, some have larger noses than others, just like in Ireland, England, Zimbabwe, Ecuador...

on youtube there are many posts about Polish faces- models, mostly tell her to check it out and shut it!!

Till you bring a link for this I rather tend to think your prof meant this study:
(and it's not talking about polish women)
independent.co.uk/news/science/the-face-of-the-future-why-eurasians-are-changing-the-rules-of-attraction-523076.html

...But new research appears to turn this theory on its head. Scientists now believe that people of mixed race, particularly Eurasians, possess certain genetic advantages that lead to greater health and, as a result, increased attractiveness.

Then there is that:
guardian.co.uk/science/2008/jul/22/sciencenews.psychology

Psychology: People in wealthy areas perceived to be most attractive

This:
telegraph.co.uk/scienceandtechnology/science/sciencenews/3349823/Why-short-women-with-long-legs-are-the-most-attractive.html

Short women with long legs are the most naturally attractive to men, according to a new study.

And of course this:

This is interesting for me. My grandfather surname is Bandur. My mother said she is 100% Polish. I know her mother is Polish for sure. I looked up Bandur and it's from Hungary. My mother and I have a distinct nose, known as "the Polish nose," she claims. It is not big, but it has a certain arch to it that I see in Polish People. I have been asked if I am Eurasian because of my eye shape and when I tell people I am Polish they say that is the Polish look. I only have seen a couple of Polish with these type of eyes and I am confused about this. Hopefully someone may help me.

I have a big nose.. atleast I think so. It has a "bump" on it that my dad has as well... and he's 75% Polish. My mom has it too, probably moreso than my dad and she's probably about 30-40% Polish. I really dislike my nose from the side, but from the front I don't mind it. But many people tell me I have a big nose. :( It's one of the things I'm the most self-conscious about. But now I just don't care any more. I'm content with who I am and proud of any Slavic look I have. :D

Erm, some myspace pix.. lol. But hopefully they kind of show my nose (I always have bright lighting in my pix... lots of windows!).

I have a question... I always see a lot of Poles with tiny noses. Does it depend on the area one's family comes from?

No. Rather on genes.

But aren't genes based on ancestry and where your family comes from?

This is a picture of my great-great grandfather who was Polish-Russian and he doesn't have a big looking nose. At least, I don't think so.
