Are you sure? So why, in The Patriarch's PR photo op disaster, can he be seen perpetuating outdated and problematic gender norms by reinforcing the notion that intellectual engagement is more appropriate for boys, as evidenced by his focus on mentoring them and reading with them to prepare them for the future?



As for the girls, it looks like he was channeling Hugh Hefner (minus the gaudy yacht captain's cap) clearly expecting them to grow up to fulfill supportive roles, providing emotional affection to patriarchs like himself.

News / POcopalypse of Poland. [28]


Obviously, your ad hominem attacks are just a sad and ineffective attempt to project and deflect from a guilty conscience regarding your own questionable behavior, as you try to protect yourself and your personal lord and savior.

Indeed, predators often go to great lengths, including years of extensive study and earning qualifications, to infiltrate professions like teaching, where they skillfully manipulate and win the trust of parents and the public to gain access to a large pool of vulnerable children.


There is nothing normal or healthy about it. Caring and protective parents (i.e., real Poles and not the PRL knock-offs) would have immediately removed their children from the situation and harshly scolded him for allowing it to happen.

It's bad enough that unwitting children are being used as props in photos to make him appear normal and distract from his dysfunctional government. He is also revealing how much of a fake feminist he is.

Look at the photo again if your stomach can handle it. Such practices are part of broader patriarchal structures that seek to control and define female behavior.

He is perpetuating antiquated gender roles by subtly implying that girls should be passive and compliant. The staged interaction demonstrates female submission, reinforcing the notion that young girls should be docile and reliant on male figures for affection and validation.

Additionally, it erodes the young girls' sense of agency and autonomy. By promoting the expectation that they should be physically close to their grandfather, it diminishes their ability to assert their own boundaries and make choices about their personal space.

Didn't you say you are a feminist and voted for him?

Oh, of course, because clearly the best way to frame a disturbing spectacle is to spin it as a heartwarming family moment and attack anyone who dares to voice concerns.

Bravo for turning your denial into positivity and making any thoughtful assessment about him seem like an unwelcome intrusion!

But face it, your personal lord and savior looks less like a seasoned statesman and more like a disheveled vagrant.

Worse, at 67, he is allowing his grandchildren to crawl all over him in public, have photos taken, and then flaunt them on social media.

This PR stunt, intended to craft an image of relatable warmth, has backfired disgracefully.

His bizarre comments about his "phenomenal experience" of "unexpected immediate love" for a "small body" during his interview only expose a cringeworthy lapse in judgment and an appalling disregard for public sentiment. This pathetic attempt to humanize himself is not just an abject failure but a glaring example of the complete moral collapse in Poland under his regime!

It's all so tawdry and revolting!



Yet, here you are mindlessly defending him!

Shame on you, POlak!

Food / Bigos Recipe [183]


Perhaps just her way of saying she didn't think you were special enough for the real stuff.


Did she own a cat? Maybe she didn't like you at all.

Food / Bigos Recipe [183]


There are many types of stews, but the slow cooking method, combination of meat and vegetables, and hearty texture still make bigos a stew. The only difference is the use of sauerkraut, which gives it a distinct aroma and flavor.

According to one account, the earliest bigos recipes from the 16th and 17th centuries didn't use cabbage and instead used vinegar or sour fruits for a tangy flavor.

"The bigos which Poles eat today has its roots in the 18th century. "Bigos with cabbage" and "rogue bigos" (a poorer version of the "real" bigos, called this to distinguish it from the dozens of others of variants) were the ancestors of the meal, which today is mainly cabbage, with meat as just an extra. Due to the difficulty involved in getting exotic fruit, sauerkraut (pickled cabbage) was used instead of more expensive lemons and limes for a sour taste."

Stews have a high thermal mass, which allows for better heat retention and slower release. This density also contributes to greater satiation.


Emotional eating is more of a coping mechanism and women tend to have higher rates of it than men.


North African dwellers like yourself find European hot temperatures cooler because you're acclimated to much hotter and drier conditions, making European heat seem mild in comparison. Fact!

Very true. But how far is Katarzyna Lipka willing to go in her erasure efforts?

How would she and her gleeful supporters on PF rewrite the following statement to ensure that it is free of references to any organized religions, both Christian and non-Christian?

"I stand here today because of a Polish Catholic woman who could barely read and write. She didn't sit down and measure the risks, yet risked her life every single day for four years to protect the life of another human being, a Jewish child. Her name was Bronislawa Kurpi. She baptized me, gave me a false identity, and protected me from her neighbors as well as the Gestapo."

News / Will PiS be happy if AfD wins elections in Germany? [412]


Indeed, like watching two clowns bicker for the spotlight.


It's called factual history.

Western countries imposed diplomatic and economic boycotts on the Soviet Union and Warsaw Pact nations. Meanwhile, the United States and its allies made substantial investments in West Germany after WWII and continued to do so over the subsequent decades. This significant economic support led to marked disparities in economic development between West and East Germany (and Poland too since you weren't aware).

After reunification, East Germany faced significant job losses and a lengthy process to align its economy with West Germany. Despite having the right to work in the West, East Germans often encountered discrimination. West Germans generally went out of their way to show contempt for East Germans by displaying a more favorable attitude toward immigrants such as Turks, Arabs, Asians, and Africans instead.

You can relate to this yourself in how PRL 'Poles' will warmly welcome foreigners while openly despising Polonia. The key difference is that West Germans looked down socially on East Germans, while PRL 'Poles' resent having to look up at the economic successes of Polonia.

News / Will PiS be happy if AfD wins elections in Germany? [412]

Even if you don't agree with the source, this article gives a very refreshing perspective of things:

The German establishment is desperately clinging to power in the face of democracy

Like in France, there is an open and crude effort to deny voters their democratic choice.

Eastern Germany has always collectively opposed whatever nonsense was brewing in the West, whether it was Nazis circa WWII or a subsequent expanding American influence that favored their Western compatriots and left them with a lower standard of living. The idea being peddled by critics of their electoral choice that they're throwing themselves into the arms of some kind of right-wing Nazis is laughable, given the historical context.

Apparently any excuse will do in an attempt to justify the inevitable post-electoral coup by the ruling establishment elites, so they can keep lecturing the rest of the world about democracy.

Life / Polish women fight for their rights - manifa and other events [278]

Absolutely. There need to be severe penalties.

Feminists fear such measures and immediately protest that these will discourage women from reporting grievances.

They deliberately omit the fact that severe penalties are crucial for eliminating fraudulent complaints. This is because feminists know that acknowledging this distinction would undermine their ideological goal of elevating women by tearing down men using any means necessary.

Life / Polish women fight for their rights - manifa and other events [278]


Very true. In all these cases of false rape claims, the female 'victim' simply wants to take revenge for any given flimsy reason against the man or men they are accusing.

Women have both social and legal incentives to engage in risky behavior and then lie about what actually happens because they know they will always be believed (at least at first), and when it is proven they are lying, they know there will be little to no consequences for them.

Women have plenty of advocates and dedicated support groups who will overlook and even rationalize their abhorrent and irresponsible behavior. Men are on their own in these very serious situations with female false accusers and their attendant cheerleaders expecting men to simply move on after their reputations and livelihoods have been destroyed.

Life / Polish women fight for their rights - manifa and other events [278]

Very sage advice. I recall the quote originated last century from a male writer.

Anyway, every person and every generation will have very different opinions on this matter.

Sometimes these opinions are rooted in cultural conventions, and other times they come from empirical studies or direct personal experience.

Interestingly, some societies that are not influenced by feminism have a better understanding of gender dynamics and know how to respond more effectively to problems caused by them.

Take Iran, for example. Did you know that a year ago there was a women's rights protest over there? No?

If you didn't, it wasn't due to a media blackout; it was because the protest was very short-lived.

Were all the women rounded up and jailed? No.

Instead, the Iranian authorities arrested the men who were supporting the women and executed them. The women ran away and never came back out.

Men targeted by Iranian regime as women protest for equal rights

"Experts suggest that the aggressive rate at which the regime has been imprisoning or executing men involved in the protests it's a clear sign of its awareness that if men and women unite, it will struggle to contain the movement."

abcnews.go.com/International/men-now-targeted-iranian-regime-women-protest-equal/story?id=103291751

The same applies to the Taliban.

This demonstrates that women only receive the society that men allow them to have.

Feminists can only succeed in implementing and enforcing gynocentric societies when there are enough browbeaten, "oh, yes ma'am!" cucks and manginas to do their bidding.

Again, many differences in how people understand and respond to gender politics will always be generational.

You should be the first to know the problems generated on PF when people share or probe into other people's personal lives. It's why so many threads are off topic.

So, in general, what's your experience working with adult aged women spanning different generations?

Life / Polish women fight for their rights - manifa and other events [278]


No longer having periods certainly eliminates this convenient excuse for women to take regular time off work but this still wouldn't justify giving them a pay raise over it.

Look at it this way.

A "career" woman will spend decades taking about one week off every month just to sit at home on the rag.

By the time they reach menopause, they have been mentally conditioned to expect to get more time off work than men and thus do less work.

So what do they suddenly do? Finally put in equal work to receive equal pay?

Absolutely not.

They still spend about one week off every month attending doctor appointments for menopausal health matters, both real and imagined. These issues range from osteoporosis and weight gain to mental health problems exacerbated by menopause, such as depression and anxiety.


Indeed, the entire gender pay gap scam is based on never comparing like with like.

Life / Polish women fight for their rights - manifa and other events [278]


Feminists and their manginas like you are the ones who declared that women should be treated equally to men.

This claim has always been farcical, as demonstrated by women being accommodated with excessive time off from work without facing termination, unlike men.

But even this isn't sufficient.

What feminists and their manginas like you want is a world where women work part-time (if at all) but receive full-time salaries and benefits.

Feminism is nothing more than a rebranding of communism and for the benefit of women only.

From men according to their abilities, to women according to their demands.


Spoken like a true unrepentant communist who enthusiastically approves of genocide as means to eliminate ideological enemies.

Because they bleed and feminists want to blame men for it.

Biological Gender Differences, Absenteeism, and the Earnings Gap

"In most countries, women are absent from work more frequently than men. Using personnel data, we find that the absences of women below the age of 45 follow a 28-day cycle, while the absences of men and of women over the age of 45 do not. We interpret this as evidence that the menstrual cycle increases female absenteeism.

The increased absenteeism induced by the 28-day cycle explains at least 14 percent of the earnings gender differential.

While family-related commitments explain part of this gender gap in absenteeism, even among unmarried workers with no children women still take significantly more sick days than men."

Work / I am a Nigerian looking for job opportunities in Poland [30]

It is yet another thread about an economic migrant from the Global South seeking a quick, ready-made solution in the Global North.

As a purported data analyst, the OP clearly isn't looking for temporary, low-wage, or seasonal work.

He expects to enter the middle class as soon as he steps off the plane.

Nigeria already has a thriving tech sector. If the OP can't find a job there, what benefit does Poland gain by offering opportunities to him, especially when young Poles are also seeking similar work?

Additionally, given his stated career field, the OP doesn't need to be physically in Poland to do data analytics. That is literally a work-from-home job.

Not that any of this matters to you.

We know how you vote:
