News / Abortion still under control in Poland - part 2 [177]

fathers custody,

If giving custody was a solution to the problem, then 90% would drop to 10%. But it won`t coz most "fathers" who refuse to pay aren`t interested in it.

News / Abortion still under control in Poland - part 2 [177]

a woman to pay

Sorry, the statistics is merciless - it is males who owe 90% child support to mothers of their kids.

That is why women expect the abortion law to be changed. And it will happen next year when a decent President is elected. I am going to vote for him having the fate of Polish women in mind.

Polish proverb says: Strike the table and the scissors will clank! hahaha

One poster suggested that child support money solves the problem.

Yes, it was you, Polo. You remember that exchange, I see. :):):)

Life / Owning a house in true countryside of Poland - stories [692]

maybe that rat is a manifestation of a deeper issue..

Are you trying to imply some Freudian theories are involved here???
Hmm, the rat is real, I didn`t imagine it.

How would you interpret its existence in my life??? ):):)

BTW, it is gone for good. Only mice have remained. And I still don`t know what grabbed those cobs.

You don't post it though. You drop it in through the letterbox.

Yes, interesting. I wonder why it didn`t work in Poland. Perhaps Poles and Polesses didn`t need to give their neighbours cards coz they all would meet in the local church or on the way to or back from it anyway. Such a meeting sufficed to wish sb nice Christmas.

News / Abortion still under control in Poland - part 2 [177]

Two years ago I argued for abortion claiming that more and more women are left by their partners and have to raise the kid/kids on their own. One poster suggested that child support money solves the problem. I laughed at it, quoting the statistics.

Which haven`t improved since then. They are even worse. And the state doesn`t know how to deal with the issue.

The mountain of debts that almost no one in Poland wants to pursue has already reached almost PLN 16 billion. As many as 94% of child support debtors are men, who already owe PLN 15 billion. The number of the youngest debtors is growing rapidly.

That is why I still believe women need to have a choice.

Language / Polish Pet Names For A Lover? [35]

Well, yes, żabcia

Yesterday while driving I heard that old song by Hanna Banaszak. I remember it well from 1970s. She bids farewell to her ex lover addressing him as:

Farewell, misiu - teddy bear!
kotku - kitty!
świnko - piggy!
gapciu - gawker!

Paradoxically, despite those pet addresses on him, she warns him she won`t be his żabcia - froggie.

Feedback / "Ignore" option for certain posters [69]

Tomorrow is 1st Dec which means Christmas is close. According to old Polish traditions, I suspend being rude to forum troublemakers. No darlings or other nasties.
However, if you provoke me too much, I will address you as bb aka bad boy. Or bad being coz creature slur is also excluded. :):)

only we stay forever young

At least when personality is involved. :):):) While others age physically, mentally and also personally when they get embittered and depressed by their life failures. They stop playing games and become clueless zombies in result. I don`t want to end like that.

Life / Owning a house in true countryside of Poland - stories [692]

The funniest thing is that I still don`t know what happened to the corn cob bait coz I had put it too close to the camera and the lens didn`t cover the view ..............

The mystery is still unsolved coz the last days have been bringing fog and moisture covered the lens which made photos too obscure to detect what abducted the cob. E.g, this morning, it happened between 5.19 am and 5.49 am. I can only distinguish the dim shape of the cob and in the next photo it disappears.
But!!!! The rat has disappeared from the photos, either!!! Previously, it had played its main role before the camera every 30 minutes. Now, completely gone, ( except those morning fog hours).
Did Mil meet Ginger and they had a serious talk about the matters of life and death???

Life / Things that annoy you in Poland. [133]

It annoys me that still so many males prefer to stick to obsolete standards of the patriarchal society which is slowly disintegrating into oblivion. Too slowly but let`s not complain coz Rome wasn`t built in a day, either.
However, those male losers who can`t cope mentally with women`s independence and rights, become a political prey for nationalist or far rightist parties which promise the return of old times. It is bs of course coz you can`t get back to oppression and discrimination.

No, sending a card to a person living next door would be considered mild madness here. Poles and Polesses are more practical than that. That is why I chose Poland for my home country. ):):)

I will never understand a card for someone you see in person

Yes, crazy. That is why it isn`t a Polish custom coz most Poles/Polesses have always been able to naturally see/meet their whole family at Christmas time.

It is amasing how people can change over time.

Fortunately, apes don`t coz they remain themselves all their lives. That is our superiority over humans. Ha!!!!

Life / Is Polish church involved in politics too much? [137]

Hey, did you hear that the first church marriage of Jacek Kurski, PiS TV chairman, was annuled after 24 years!!!

Do you remember post 28??? Refresh your memory.

New details have surfaced about that annulment. In order to leave his first wife legally, Kurski claimed mental disorder which made him unable to perform marital duties. The local clergy committee decreed the annulment but forbade Kurski to marry again due to his issue. However, the new marriage got green light by the local archbishop, a good friend of PiS politicians, who said: Anything can be arranged in the Church.

That`s how church black gangsters collude with PiS bolshevik gangsters.

Down with them all!!!!

An article which explains everything:

News / Presidential elections 2025 - the race has commenced!!! [665]

Come on, each society has its nuts. If there weren`t any, the atmosphere of social perfection would become so unbearable that it would lead to serious disturbances and disaster in the end. Smith explains it well in Matrix 1.
People need opponents like nationalists and homo sovieticuses to feel needed and appreciated for fighting them. Novi explained it well in the PF 1.

It all comes from the same wholesalers

Yes, and Ukraine has the same problem coz 80% of its agricultural production is made by big companies, not individual growers. So Ron`s claim about organic production there and your support for it was erroneous.
