Off-Topic / Let's talk about shoes [333]


Sure, I like wearing nice or cute/fun slippers myself at home, but I've just never thought of home slippers as something that men would pay attention to or find particularly attractive on a woman lol I think the only time I've noticed a man being visibly interested in my home slippers was when a courier came with a package and he seemed to like my panda slippers ;D


OK, but leather slippers? They're not particularly soft and they're usually brown (I somehow don't find that sexy in home slippers for women). Could you post a photo as an example of what you have in mind? 🤔

Off-Topic / Let's talk about shoes [333]

Btw:


But any slipper or the ones that look pretty or particularly feminine? Because I don't quite get it... 🤔


That's even more surprising...

Off-Topic / Let's talk about shoes [333]


I don't exaggerate - that's the real life experience of many wives lol :))

The reality is that attractive people or someone you're attracted to will be attractive to you usually no matter what they wear. Attractive people could wear potato sacks and they would still be attractive people lol Of course, they would look better or even more sexy in the right clothes, but that's all. It's the less attractive people that usually need "help" by the means of clothes, etc.


Well, that's rather surprising for me... I wouldn't consider home slippers as "attractive shoewear" lol


Definitely not loafers or birkenstocks, which you apparently consider "feminine" :)

Off-Topic / Let's talk about shoes [333]


That's good - so maybe you're not a total moron after all lol


No, I didn't contradict myself at all. You wrote "sexy". "Looking good" isn't the same as "looking sexy".

Also, "sexy" is subjective. It may mean different things to different people. For some men a woman looks sexy only if she wears tight dresses, mini skirts, shows cleavage, wears high heels and heavy make up. For some others a woman in a long, summer, flowy dress wearing sandals looks feminine and that's enough to consider her "sexy" for them. For some others a woman wearing jeans and T-shirt may look sexy if she's physically attractive. For a husband who wants his wife she's "sexy" even if she's tired, sweaty, wearing sweat pants, a T-shirt with a stain from baby food and messy hair lol (that's at home, of course, not in public)

Did it cross your mind that there are times when women DON'T WANT TO ATTRACT MEN? o_O Like, for example, in the freaking church, at work, kid's playground or if they have a husband or a boyfriend. Are you a moron? 🤦


How do you know I don't? Most women try to look good.

Off-Topic / Let's talk about shoes [333]


o_O

That's not women's problem what men want to look at lol 🤦


"Looking after yourself" and "putting some effort into one's looks" doesn't equal "sexy".


No, they shouldn't and it isn't, you f*cked up weirdo.


I somehow don't see that when I look at many men lol Maybe it's the men who should look after themselves more if they want to be "treated better" and put some effort into their looks? Women are already putting a lot of effort and money into their looks, maybe even too much. And we would like to look at nicely dressed men too (it doesn't even have to be sexy - just nice). 🙄

You're seriously sick in the head.

Off-Topic / Let's talk about shoes [333]


Well, first of all they "shouldn't", they may if they wish. Women's sole purpose on this Earth isn't to look "sexy". And we don't always want to look "sexy". A woman doesn't need to look "sexy" when she's at work, when she goes to church, to play with kids on the playground, when going jogging, shopping, etc.


They also cause back problems, legs' pain and swelling of feet (due to bad blood circulation) - if worn often. Humans simply weren't made to walk this way.


I don't understand what's your problem exactly. I don't know any woman who would wear men's shoes lol


What's "gay" about that comment?

USA, Canada / Why Americans don't allow men to be in briefs at the beach/swiming pools? [90]


You mean this?: o_O




I don't recall ever paying much attention to what men wear on the beach... Admittedly, I don't obsess in general over what people wear in public.


Only by men who are fit :P Old men with big bellies in speedos isn't something that many people would like to particularly witness, I think ;) I guess you could say that speedos are the equivalent of women's sexy bikini. 🤔

@Feniks, no, those birch crosses are characteristic for a certain group among Polish war heroes though...

As for the fabrics - look at their shape and that hat at the top of the cross.

Could you take a close up photo of that "sticker" on the back of the painting? What does it say?

Yeah, this is weird, especially considering the rest of the painting looks intact. 🤔

Btw, why LPelo got suspended? o_O She literally just joined the forum - come on, mods, give her a break... Opening multiple threads on the same topic.

@LPelo, thanks for the photos!

To be honest the quality of the photos isn't good enough to judge that...


I don't know, but this painting doesn't seem to show up on Google.


People often contact Desa Unicum (the biggest auction house in Poland) to identify and get a price evaluation of a painting:

@LPelo, could you take a better photo of the painting? A bit closer and not from above - maybe sit in front of it while taking the photo if you can?

Is there anything at the back of the painting?

@LPelo, it looks like Wojciech Kossak to me.

Po polsku / Polska miedzy Niemcami i Rosja. Zalety i wady. [512]


Nic mi to nie "rozjaśniło", bo ja czytałam rzeczowe artykuły na temat tej afery, gdzie nie było nic o "zalewie setek tysięcy migrantów z Azji i Afryki". Problem był nie w liczbach tylko w tym, że ta afera miała w ogóle miejsce - to dosyć komiczne, że akurat za rządów PiS-u :)))


Tusk powiedział tak:

tvn24.pl/polska/pakt-migracyjny-przyjety-przez-rade-unii-europejskiej-donald-tusk-komentuje-nie-przyjmiemy-zadnych-migrantow-st7915521

"- To jest moje zadanie, i ja się wywiąże z tego zadania. Polska będzie beneficjentem paktu migracyjnego. Nie będziemy za nic płacić, nie będziemy musieli przyjmować żadnych migrantów z innych kierunków, Unia Europejska nie narzuci nam żadnych kwot migrantów. Natomiast Polska będzie skutecznie egzekwowała wsparcie finansowe ze strony Unii w związku z tym, że stała się państwem goszczącym steki tysięcy migrantów głownie z Ukrainy - powiedział."

No zobaczymy.


Bo nadal nad nim pracowali? Z jakieś 10 lat negocjacje w związku z tym paktem trwały.

Nie jestem dziecinna - po prostu to co dla wyborców PiS jest "poświęcaniem polskich interesów" często nie jest tak odbierane przez wyborców PO i na odwrót.


Trumpowi/Amerykanom
Zakup dużej ilości amerykańskiego sprzętu wojskowego (za pieniądze podatników), który będzie kosztowny w eksploatacji, a w wypadku wojny części zamienne itd. trzeba będzie sprowadzać zza oceanu, itd.


Nie okazała się żadną "wydmuszką" i o tej aferze to się akurat naczytałam, więc nie wciskaj mi PiS-owskieo kitu. 🙄

@gumishu, nie śledzę, ale wybacz, co PiS robił w tej sprawie kiedy był u władzy? Cóż takiego korzystnego dla Polski wynegocjowali? Już pomijam PiS-owską aferę wizową... 🙄

Jeżeli PO właziło Niemcom tudzież brukselskim elitom w dupę to głównie symbolicznie (lub zgodnie z polskim intresem) :)


Natomiast PiS jest gotów poświęcić jak najbardziej realne polskie interesy aby wleźć w dupę Amerykanom :)

;D Ilościowo czy procentowo? :D


Daj mi spokój z takimi pierdołami. Kiedy PiS był u władzy to twierdził, że to PO jest prorosyjskie i pokazywał zdjęcia Tuska ściskającego się z Putinem (niektórzy na PF też to robili):

It would be unusual, but not impossible... It could be like some inside-joke in the family, I guess, for some reason...


"Paprotka" - for a girl. It actually sounds nice and cute :) Next stage of diminutive would be "Paprocia" and even further: "Paprociunia", for example.

Welcome to the club... I didn't see anything either :( I missed my probably only chance to see the aurora in my own city... 😭 I wish the media informed about it sooner, so I'd know beforehand and prepare or at least I'd look out of the window/go out on the balcony... 😞


Me too :))

@jon357, yes, if I understand correctly she got married in 1974 to Alan Maskell (his parents: Edward Maskell & Eleanor Greenway) and is known as Maria Maskell now (judging by what is written on that site).


True.

You need to have permanent residency in Poland in order to get a gun license that would allow you to buy guns. I am not aware of any exceptions to this rule...


Probably, especially if you don't plan to live and train people in Poland.

The map of Poland is getting green, so people in the North of Poland may see something, it looks like there's going to be K7 aurora in 30 minutes (it's nowhere near what we had in Poland on Friday though - it was K9).
