Life / Why is circumcision not practiced in Poland? [701]


There arn't any health benifits. Would you pluck out your toenails in case you ever have ingrown toe-nails?


A keen observation. Obviously you find circumsised cock's more attractive. Your sexual orientation is your free choice.

Snipping wasn't well paid, but they at least got to keep the tips.

Life / Why is circumcision not practiced in Poland? [701]

Rebirth, I can see you were more serious than this first appeared. I find many back and forths that some become involved in on here dull so I won't go too deeply into this. Much such as Uganda Hiv transfer/Surgical procs on elderly are still hygene issues, and is a choice for a sexually active man to consider depending on his sexual activity, certainly not for routine procedures on babies in the name of modernity.

I was aware of the Cancer issue and this equates with heredetary breast cancer where mastectomies are performed before any sign of Cancer. Much worse emotionally for the women involved I'd assume. However, this is now thought to be incorrect see

bmj.com/content/335/7631/1180.full

"Far from being a harmless traditional practice, circumcision damages young boys" is current medical thinking (Sorrells ML, Snyder JL, Reiss MD, Eden C, Milos MF, Wilcox N, et a)

The American Academy of Pediatrics acknowledges that there are some health benefits to circumcision, but they are not enough to justify the risks associated with the procedure, so they no longer recommend it for babies.

Under the UN conventions it is also considered to be against the welfare of the child except where both guardians consent for cultural concerns, that is, religion (A dated concept to me, but lets not go there).

Man, PM, here and other posts, you do have very high standards when it comes to women.

Travel / Why so many Indian Restaurants in Poland? Which one is the best? [42]

Sound right, I've heard several times that what is now called Indian food in restaurants were trial and error creations from the first immigrants to Yorkshire. Balti, Kormas, Vindaloo were adaptations for English tastes. A real Vindaloo, for example, should be made with plenty of Portuguese Vin when I see it in restaurants in London the meaning is more related to how hot/spicy the curry your meat will be.

Life / Babcia or Busha - any social class difference? [359]


The 'Pole-axe' was a reference to breaking ice

The lines before are
Such was the very armour he had on
When he the ambitious Norway combated:
So frowned he once, when in an angry parle
He smote the sledded Polacks on the ice

Life / Babcia or Busha - any social class difference? [359]


The ambitious, angry, armoured Norwegian combatant may have been on a sled, being he was on ice. It is a violent play.There is some value in alliterating Smote and Sled. Pole-axes were usually used on foot with the length giving added momentum to break through armour.

Make of it want you will, if you want to believe that WS was a racist, it's left to the reader for interpretation. WS was a punner (e.g. mistempered swords in R&J), I simply find it hard to believe Shakespeare would stoop to dumb polack jokes. I do find something darkly funny in DEs implication of picking up a Polish person by the ankles and bashing ice with his/her head!

Preempting, Polonius the "tedious old fool" also named as Corambis, Latin for cabbage head, was Danish.

edit: I am not alluding to Polonios3, just noticed his post ahead of mine;)

Life / Babcia or Busha - any social class difference? [359]


You are right. A double meaning is there which I didn't want to leave unnoticed. Just you picked a bad quote. Polack is used to refer to Poles later on, as you say. I just got a very slightly irked that WS use was being taken in the same venomous spirit that it is used in the US. 'Pole-axe' would be more obvious when hearing the word in the play, more so than when read.

Yes. It can make it difficult to 'buss a cap in yo ass' when one doesn't quite know where the arse is, anatomically.

UK, Ireland / Why Poles will never belong in England [283]


I use the royal "we" sometimes. In this case you need to have stated it as a personal opinion or point out the "we" is you and some of your mates...

The women don't blend in, if anything they are outstanding. If they want to mix their slavic genes in with English ones they'll do so without much effort. You think that all the various immigrants are going to club together to create a 'masterculture' that will somehow blot out England's way of life do you. I'm genuinely

wondering what part of their culture you believe is encroaching on England's. And just how does something like religious belief alter skin colour?


Those people are as dim as the OP.

Believe that if you want to but it's absolutely laughable to think so.
Bottom line (as if this thread won't run forever) is that while Polish are obviously not English both are part of the European Union.

Most Euro-Kings and Queens bequeathed their sons and daughters to other nations families to keep the blood blue and to aid in keeping the peace. Creating a European union of their day.

No they woudn't. They would have one maybe two great and brilliant rioting individuals .Afterwards, for decades and for centuries, they would continually bring them up as proof that Poles are the greatest rioters equal to, if not better, than British ones.

Love / Polish women are the most beautiful in the world! [1718]

The flaw in your well written diatribe is that you as a woman haven't the foggiest notion of the visceral attraction men have for women.

Genealogy / Polish looks? [1410]


mutt?? You do yourself and your various ancestors a disservice. I'd say hybrid.
'hybrids of different varieties and species are bred in order to combine the favorable characteristics of the parents. Hybrids often display hybrid vigour '
Though I'm sure you are a product of normal human relations and not a science project.

Love / Polish women are the most beautiful in the world! [1718]

Visceral attraction is precisely what I am attracted to without reference to anyone else ideas of beauty. I don't need a plastic surgeon with his formula to tell me what is attractive any more than I need a butcher to tell me a piece of meat has turned rancid.

Facts? Anthropologically, beauty is equatable with health. Your bitterness is very unhealthy.

Love / Polish women are the most beautiful in the world! [1718]


The 'blah blah blah' represents your maniacal verbose rehashing of what you have said before. Your tirades are becoming as sterile as Polish food.
As you have pointed out your evidence/back-up is just opinion. I have no interest in what other men find attractive, you do, for what appears to be research for plastic surgery. I care little to 'study' beauty. Why would I when it's meant for enjoyment. Certainly, I am not insecure enough to look to others for opinions on what is beautiful. What kind of idiot needs to check with someone else regarding attractiveness?Eunichs perhaps. Or elderley folk who are under dosed on HRT.

I often hear many glowing comments from non-Polish friends on how Polish women brighten up the local environment, especially when about town, that's as far as my study goes.

Bitterness is a reactive emotional state not a mental illness. Ugly women are treated worse by society, undoubtedly this must leave them bitter,too.

On Antropology: Mating is a very large branch of it's study it's globally shown, with some variations, that mate selection by men is intuitively on health to producing healthy offspring. A second argument is that unhealthy matings die out before getting to produce a second generation.

On your bitterness: It falls under Facts, not Anthropology.
On Psychology: I have no interest in you except where it sheds light on your opinion.

History / 'Battle of Britain' won thanks to Polish aces !! [158]



One of my grandfathers was a ship's cook. Not a very good one, so bad in fact that his shipmates suspected him of being on the other side. By those that didn't die, he was considered the worst thing to happen at sea.

History / POLAND: EASTERN or CENTRAL European country? [1080]

16 pages of this. It must have been answered somewhere and then resurrected by a fool or a troll.
East is to the right of Germany. When in the UK there is talk of Eastern Europe, Poland is included. It contrasts with Western Europe.

There is also a central Europe which has Germany, Poland etc. It contrasts with the surrounding areas as the periphery. Like a doughnut Central Europe is the hole.

That's all there is to it.
Anyone who says it is not either East or central is a lunatic. Anyone who says it can be only one or the other is simple minded. No offense meant.

The OP should be POLAND: EASTERN AND CENTRAL European country. (As a statement)
But then there would be little else to be said.

History / POLAND: EASTERN or CENTRAL European country? [1080]


:))
Yes...well...There's a fine line between lunacy and its contrast. Whether it runs horizontally or vertically, from a global perspective it's circular, eventually.

History / POLAND: EASTERN or CENTRAL European country? [1080]


Que? I was pointing out that the lateral and medial contexts of Eastern and Central are used for contrast depending on the situation being described and the two abstract classes aren't mutually exclusive. Think of Venn diagrams if that makes it any easier for you.

Barney cleverly moved the goal posts(or context) on me, and then implied that classifications are also divisive. I then played on the idea of longitude and latitude lines. How on earth you thought my response to barney meant you hate Eastern Europeans is something you need to figure out for yourself, at least not with my help.

You didn't understand my earlier post on you wouldn't of written your last one which is easily dismissed by looking at the context in which Der Spigiel published its article.
