And how is that Crow?

Genealogy / Why are some Polish people dark complected, and others very light [511]

Certain Poles are descended from Lipka Tatars, this being the case with myself.

Language / "Poles" or "Polish people" - which is better to use? [200]

I, as a Pole, have no problem with the word.

Genealogy / What are common Polish character traits? [417]

Thought that I'd butt in, we Poles are very patriotic. We seem to have this mindflex that 'Polish stuff's the best'. That is why many of us living abroad buy from Poland.

We also hate every country that's hosting us, this is generally true (but is also partially a joke) >:) . We usually have a great sense of humor (this cannot be said about me or my mother) and we also take Easter more seriously than others.

In short, we're just Poles.

History / Whom do the people in Poland hate more: Germans or Russians? [869]

Ah Crow, you and your 'theories'. Germans are not Serbs but Germanized Sorbians, the true natives of Eastern Germany. Russians may have originally come from Polish genetics, but we are far from related, it's like comparing a German and Swedish Finn; both are Germanic but so different that the other would punch one if compared.

Crow, I don't know what planet you live on. But certainly not Earth, Gerries aren't Serbs and Serbs aren't Gerries. Simple, FULL STOP.

Life / Can someone tell me about the reason behind being gay in Poland being wrong [148]

No real Pole likes gays.

Genealogy / Any one know anything of Koss surname? [22]

I apologize, I forgot to leave proof for such a simplistic guy like Crow:

Silesian GERMAN DIALECT - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silesian_German

Silesians and TYPES of Silesians - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silesians

Silesian-German just refers to a Silesian who is of German descent. Obvious isn't it?

EDIT: Polonius, it would seem so. I forgot to explain what I meant by Silesian German.
