Life / Has feminism and lesbianism progressed in Poland? [645]

Seems to me that women do not know what love is or that the 'concept' of love is different for women.

Seems to me the man want

some selfless caring

love but don't understand women would want the same. Unless of course for man caring is looking from the couch when your wife is scrubbing the toilet, vacuuming, cleaning the windows etc

And I'm really sorry some women would like to experience any kind of love when your husband doesn't want you to work yourself out when he can do his part. Assuming his IQ isn't low enough to wash the dishes etc that is

I spoke with few people who said they saw army preparation on the German border

Life / Poland's birthrate on the decline [480]

I must say that if PF was representative of the whole population the birthrate would probably on something like 0.01.

Why don't you help her yourself? Sort yourself out first. geez!

Quite possibbly she doesn't live with them anymore even. And she is not responsible for that.

If fathers start actually taking care of their kids

Even the good father's I see around usually don't bother themselves with stuff like the kids friends (at the age when parents have to arrange playdates etc) kids medication dosages and restocking, school events etc

They are all lost, so is their DNA

You two judging by your own words.

Their lottery offspring will have a tough time finding a job if

Lottery offspring? And why should they have a problem finding a job?

You honestly think they won't be outbreed? Importing women will only escalate,

We are not bothered because we don't aim to be breeders.

never see yourselves getting dirty an tired from doing manual labor all day at a construction site while the men are at home cooking, cleaning and caring for children.

Go ahead then. If it's so nice and cozy why man don't want to do it?

I worked manual jobs. So what?

And if the society wants to have children, then it will have to make it easier for people to have those children. That's the reality.

Do you meant them stomping their feet won't work?

Right and women have responsibilities in this matter

Good luck with that then. Tell us how that approach works for you.

I think they just wanted to sell some tickets, a performance for votes.

But it would have worked as a child's help as well

Why should government and corporations be burdened with co-parenting?

Because those same government are telling us there is not enough births.

I don't know what they wanted.

Well, they implemented it as a boosting birth rate programme so ..

I really can't find any logical arguments in your post no 50.

I would assume there is a problem with your logic then.

most western countries have similar help for kids.

And that is good but in that case it should have been run differently.

What could help women to have more babies for you ?

Better childcare arrangements, better housing situation, better employee/employer relationship

The government wanted to solve one problem (birth rate) and created that programm (that you calling in a plumber and him starting to fix your leak). It didn't work but helped some kids in poverty ( that is the plumber helping the shower pressure) but spend more than needed by giving it to anyone ( that's the charging twice but).

Ok, next time you need a plumber to fix you leak and instead he improves your shower pressure while charging you twice what it would cost you to do that be happy.

So, it was a good policy to some extent.

In that respect yes but then it should be introduced as such and selective.

I see that working out for him just splendidly

And the alternative is to keep lying to your partner and hoping to be able to cheat on her. Great perspective!

You are ignorant of science. I get it.

Then please educate us and show us those studies

talk about it all the time,

Really? Anything to back it up?

It had been said and done and dusted a long time ago

And what does that change? If anything it gives better picture of the programme's impact on birth rates

helped many to some extent

True but didn't boost birth rates as it was advertised to do.

To begrudge some money for families in Poland

Who told you I begrudge it? Projecting much?

These days young people with good education in most trades can earn very similar money in Poland as they would in the West.

I would say that West still wins in terms of wages (especially for the low level jobs), social security (but usually lower family, friends support). Where they still win 100% in my experience is employee/ employer relationships.

imagine starting the first and only wholeshale food warehouse in the radius of 50 kilometres - just one example from my family.

My family has one flaw- while hardworking we are completely unmaterialistic and useless at business.
My mom was a well respected specialist recognised in the whole town and in some neighbouring. One of the first to use computer and software. My uncle even offered to buy her equipment necessary to open a business on her own. She said no.

My brother- masters degree and incredible talent at lecturing/speech and writing, just wrote some pieces for his field periodicals but never tried to actually make a living.

Me- knowing what a success private nurseries/kindergartens will be but never actually looking properly into opening one (well, probably wouldn't manage to get the capital anyway)
