Genealogy / Do I look Polish? (my picture) [375]

Most of Anglo Saxon English are historically Danish

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anglo-Saxons

"The migration of Germanic peoples to Britain from what is now northern Germany, the northern part of the Netherlands and southern Scandinavia"

Genealogy / Do I look Polish? (my picture) [375]

can you seriously tell the difference between ethnic English and Germans?

Not really because

dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-2006584/Half-Britons-German-blood--time-embrace-inner-Jerry.html

but (under normal circumstances) you can say the difference between a Pole and a Brit.

You guys haven't seen many Germans then ;-)

show me the example of Briton that would not pass as a Pole

just take a look at WroclawBoy, he definately wouldn't pass as a Pole (he looks very English).

Life / What's wrong with Poland? I don't see anything. [121]

I feel as though I'm more "free" where I live now, but it's entirely subjective. Conversely, when I went to Poland and saw naked women on magazine covers at Empik,

naked women on magazine covers - that's freedom !!! ;-)

Life / 3 reasons why you hate Poland. [1049]

My point in not naming my country, nationality or race is not to be fascist, or as a Pole would call it, being "Patriotic" about the colors of a flag or a race or the name of a country.

but why make a secret out of it? Something tells me, you're not very proud of where you're from (no big deal though).

GdaƄsk:

you must be kidding, man. Why don't you show some other pics? To me, it's the nicest town in Poland, followed by Wroclaw and Krakow.

Love / Are Polish girls open to foreigners? [78]

I lived in Poland for a while and I'm speaking from experience, my friend. Unless they don't know any English, the chances to meet them are really good.

Other than that, don't hold your breath, the chances are not high.

Unless you look like a freaking Frankenstein and/or are totally broke, your chances are better than average.

However, the general trend is as delph said - most women prefer to stick to their race.

their own "race" maybe but that doesn't exclude white foreigners, right?

USA, Canada / Polish-American criminals [70]

By the way, in some cases:

yeah but what we know from wiki is that his father's family came from Poland. Hey, I'm not trying to defend Jews or anyone else for that matter, just sticking to the facts (until proven wrong, of course).

OK but did any of them provide any proof for his Jewish origin?

USA, Canada / Polish-American criminals [70]

but it still doesn't prove his origin, right? Unless, you'll be able to actually prove it, we have to accept what wiki says about him (not that it really matters though).

And many of us, good and bad, hide it.

the thing is, wiki usually mentions one's origin and in his case, all they have mentioned is that his father was Polish and his mom was Irish, that's all.

Then again, does it really matter? (any country you pick, you'll find child molesters)

Theres a chance hes Jewish.

c'mon, you'll find child molesters in any nation. You can't say that he must be Jewish because Poles don't molest children.

Life / Racism in Poland - the future [441]

You come across as very cynical.

Of course we are all equal but ti doesn't mean that we all have to share the same opinions about everything.

Life / Racism in Poland - the future [441]

Something is either positive or negative

Yeah but who's to determine what's positive or negative? Everyone has to decide it for himself. Following media and celebs doesn't lead anywhere. They're all (almost all) rotten and biased, why would anyone want to follow their opinions?

For example, I'm not gonna accept same sex child adoption (just an example) just because it's hip nowadays. That's why the world is so messed up because it's full of followers.

Life / 3 reasons why you hate Poland. [1049]

I find it the other way around-I like many Polish people

as you say, you like many Polish people, not all of them and this is exactly what I said earlier, one can't like or hate everyone and so one can't hate any country. If you say, you hate Poland (any country), you're basically saying you hate everything about it, including its entire population.

3 reasons why you hate Poland.

Why would anyone hate Poland or any other country for that matter? One can hate Frank or Mary but to hate a country is dumb to say the least.
