Life / Professional feminists' of Poland meet-up [631]

Lol, I haven't seen such a stupid video in a long time. I feel repulsed by it. I saw beaten women. I saw them while they were beaten- and this...is BS

It's because we live in the real world.

I was happy enough to live among smart, confident men and women that didn't have to spew on one another. Both sides understood that they are equal. Period. Nothing more. And since that was understood noone had to hate anyone. Of course there are ppl on both sides that feel insecure and so on but I'm around ppl that know this basic truths.

Life / Professional feminists' of Poland meet-up [631]

When I read some comments here it actually makes me a radical feminist.
Like when today one article on onet about tram accident especially elaborated that the women were driving. Not even that "Panie motornicze" or something like that but separate sentence "Both trams were driven by women". I wonder if they emphasized it that way if it was about men.

There isn't even one women group that would represent most Polish women. Be it conservative, liberal...they just get support from some small percentage of Polish women. Why? Because most ppl are more busy with they day to day life and don't care.

I don't know the exact number- noone does but I think they have support of some Polish women. Probably more among young women but not only.

paid agitators and idle elitists who populate such media circuses

Well, I didn't know I'm not a Polish woman. Thanks for making me realise it.

They are not speaking for Polish women.

True, noone can really speak for all Polish women.

Work / Medical tests before working in Poland [23]

The poop in necessary if you have contact with food. That's why your friend had to do this.
Dominic is right though- the doctor that will check you has all the requirements. Usually if the job doesn't have any special conditions the test takes 10 mins.

History / How different would WW2 turned out if Poland accepted Hitler's offer [219]

Indeed, threads like this one, that proport to give "answers" to questions involving massive counter-factuals, may be interesting to read but these answers have absolutely no historical value. History is about what actually happened and no one can claim to know the truth about how WW2 would've turned out if the titular counter-factual had actually happened.

True, it doesn't have any historical value but it can be fun :) Of course as long as everybody treats it exactly that why- as harmless entertainment :)

quote from M Kampf please with the sentence saying what your claim its saying.

I read it and although he didn't say sub human he detested Slavs and had big problems with them. One of his problems with Austria was that they allowed to many Slavs to live there. I can't remember the exact words but I remember the essence.

Life / Bribery and corruption 'fact of life' in Poland? [152]

Guys please- maybe we will go back to topic?

As to my personal expirience- I never tried bribing anyone. And never heard of anyone that gave any money to anyone. The only briebery I came across were old ppl giving their doctor 10-50 zl with every visist. Not to get something- just because they think that's necessary.

Life / Traditions in a Polish Home [10]

Yes, flowers are considered a nice gesture. Also some wine or chocolates.
Besides- Polish ppl usually take off their shoes when entering someone's home.

Law / The right to own guns: would you support such legislation in Poland? [2237]

That law wouldn't affect you at all. Unless you would be unhappy that few people would be able to legally own a gun.lol

Depends on what requirements there would be to legally own a gun. And any changes affects whole nation- pro or against.

Law / The right to own guns: would you support such legislation in Poland? [2237]

Yes it is emotional reaction if you don't know facts.

Not if you think that present legislation works well

It is for Sejm to make those changes - where you took that idea from that you would need referendum for that?

I know it's for Sejm to decide I asked the question about referendum to keep it from talking about government and so on. I wanted to know what Zimmy reaction would be if the Poles decided they want to keep the laws as they are.

How would you know what I think?

True. I assumed I know what you're thinking- sorry.

So why concern yourself with those who just want a reasonable chance to get a gun?

Because it would affect me?

You don't even know what the law is like and what changes some people postulate. You are reacting emotionally.

I know more than you think but you're right- I don't know as much about it as you because I'm content with the current state and I never wanted to have a gun.

However let's say I have no idea about gun laws:
1- I would seriously study the changes if we were going to vote on them
2- nothing emotional about wanting to keep the status quo.

If the majority of Poles forget their history and don't want their fellow citizens to own guns than they deserve their slide into self-enslavement.

I accept your right to have whatever laws you want to in US but when I mention Poles deciding in a voting that they don't want guns you say we would deserve sliding into self-enslavement? Cool.I can only say that I'm glad that there are no signals that Poland will change the gun ownership laws.And I'm happy noone can force it on us.
