Love / Do Polish guys like girls who are shy, modest and sensitive [41]

And I'm not even sure about that "greenhouse environment"... Our times have their own challenges too. For example, having and keeping a job in communist times was usually a given. My parents worked in the same place all their lives. They have no idea what it's like to look for a job, because they never had to. I happen to see comments by people from older generations on social media complaining that PRL times were easier, etc. So how are those people "stronger"?

Love / Do Polish guys like girls who are shy, modest and sensitive [41]


It's better nowadays and that's what you always should wish for next generations, imho.


I'm not sure about that "stronger", to be honest. In my opinion those generations that grew up under communism got f*cked up by those times. I defenitely wouldn't want younger Poles to be like my parents' generation. Times change, people change. My impression is that people raised in better times/circumstances are often kinder and have more empathy for others. So, everything has its pluses and minuses, as always, I guess.


Being brought up by parents f*cked up by communist times? lol

Btw, unlike the shortage of toilet paper or no "Teleranek" on Sunday morning, a pandemic can actually kill people ;/

News / Abortion still under control in Poland [2986]

Btw, according to that poll from 2020 I linked to the most liberal attitude towards abortion in Polish society was displayed by women below 35 years of age, especially those between 18-24. It was similar with young men (although to a lesser extent than in case of women). What a "shocker" :)

In this context it's not surprising that young people in Poland turned against PiS, I guess.

News / Abortion still under control in Poland [2986]


Yes, going back to the previous law would be enough for me already. I don't know about kids with Down syndrome though, because I think the previous law allowed for abortion in such cases and it looks like Poles were divided on this issue too (I'm not sure now) - this is a poll from 2020:

@Novichok, here's some info about what Polish women want based on IBRiS poll:

rp.pl/spoleczenstwo/art38100641-sondaz-ponad-80-proc-polakow-za-liberalizacja-przepisow-dotyczacych-aborcji

Unfortunately I can't quote it, because after I entered the article for the second time it turned out to be payed.


What view? I defenitely don't want the current law to stay in place.


Then why did you ask: "Hey, any women here?" That implied that you want to know the opinion of women writing on PF.

No, that's the way psychos like you treat the internet. And the problem with you and others like you is that to relieve yourself you "sh1t" on other people here. That's not normal and it's hardly surprising that people will object to be "sh1tted on" by f*cked up psychos, no matter if it happens in real life or on the internet.

Law / Weapon Law in Poland: what kinds of knives are legal? [35]


That's in the US, in Poland there's no such big problem with that.


Why? What do you need a knife for in your pocket in broad daylight in a public place in a city?

Law / Weapon Law in Poland: what kinds of knives are legal? [35]

@Bobko, I'm guessing it's because a kitchen is a natural environment for a knife, while your pocket in a public place - isn't. So, if someone is going out to a public place with a knife in their pocket one may assume that there's something wrong with that person, that this person my have an ill intent:

Travel / Kielce and the area - amazing Polish Pocket Knives live there [105]

If you sum up the results of the opposition parties the defeat of PiS in Kielce was big though:

KO 33,50%
PiS 32,56%
Trzecia Droga 12,90%
Nowa Lewica 9,29%

...and the cherry on top, as Lenka would put it :) - Konfederacja got only 6,00%, so lower than the national result :)))

From another thread:


From what I've read, he doesn't have to do that. In the first stage the Polish president can designate for the Prime Minister anyone he feels like, even some random Janusz from Psia Wólka, apparently. But that Janusz would have to be able to form a government and that government would have to be approved by the absolute majority in the Parliament.

Travel / Kielce and the area - amazing Polish Pocket Knives live there [105]

PiS, as expected, won in my region, but bringing Jarosław Kaczyński here didn't help - PiS lost two mandates in comparison to the last elections. Roman Giertych got into the Parliament as second among KO candidates, beaten only by KO number 1, despite the fact that he lives in Italy and wasn't doing any campaigning in Kielce.

I'm happy to inform that PiS lost in Kielce (slightly, but still) and KO won :):

News / Referendum to decide about exotic immigrants in Poland [559]


And what's wrong with that? :))) People should know that they have an alternative.


I don't watch TVP (and as I wrote I didn't follow this campaign too closely and didn't watch news on TV in general) and, I'm afraid, I wasn't on that rally :)))


Why do you doubt that?
Also, do you think that PiS voters came up with the idea of taking part in the referendum on their own or were they influenced by "outer sources" by any chance? :))))))

News / Referendum to decide about exotic immigrants in Poland [559]


An outer influence telling me to make up my own mind?? :)))
Btw, I don't recognize it as an outer influence, because I found that article after I already made a decision. I found it only because I was googling for info to find out whether it's allowed to refuse to take part in the referendum and how it's done correctly.

News / Referendum to decide about exotic immigrants in Poland [559]


As I wrote already - YES, I came up with that idea myself.

Btw, I posted an article on this thread in which Tusk was telling people to do what they want with this referendum - take part or not take part - it's up to them.

And I did - I decided to boycott it.


My main goal was to make the referendum non-binding as a sign of protest against PiS ulterior motives for making this referendum and how the questions were worded.

News / Referendum to decide about exotic immigrants in Poland [559]


Yes, exactly. Why is it so hard to believe it for you? Isn't that what you do when you're making decisions?


From my head. As I wrote some time ago publicly to Atch on this forum I didn't follow the parliamentary campaign too closely, I wasn't watching the news. I haven't heard about any boycott of the referendum (which was surprising for me that there wasn't one). On the 12th of October pawian wrote in this thread that he doesn't know what to do with this referendum and in the end he changed his mind at least once. I also only decided on Saturday after midnight more or less and wrote a post about it in this thread in response to pawian's doubts and finally I've decided during the day on Sunday to refuse to take part in the referendum. I also found out only on the voting day that, for example, my parents also decided to boycott the referendum (we haven't talked about it before that).


You've clearly shown in your #350 comment that you're a hypocrite, so what should I call you then?

So what? You're making comments about opposition voters in general, not just the ones writing on this forum.

You're a hypocrite then.

What do you mean by "response"? The fact that they didn't take part in the referendum?


What do you mean? What "ideas"?

@gumishu, OK, then answer Lenka's question, please, and tell us why do you never make such comments on PF about PiS voters? :)))

News / Referendum to decide about exotic immigrants in Poland [559]

@gumishu, that's what one can gather from your last two comments:



I don't recall you writing such things about PiS voters. So why do you assume all of that about opposition voters? You don't live in their heads. You assume that, because you're biased.

News / Referendum to decide about exotic immigrants in Poland [559]

@gumishu, you're completely biased and condescending. And stupid, to be honest, because the idea that the voters of your rival party are somehow less capable of thinking for themselves than the voters of the party that you support shows your bias and stupidity. It's fanatism.


I didn't. I decided what I'm going to do only on Saturday before elections and I didn't even realise if there's any policy among the opposition about taking part in the referendum or not. I personally didn't hear about any boycott.

There's a danger that in places abroad where PiS lost big time votes won't be included, because they're not getting their protocols accepted!!! :O:
