Life / Why are Poles always so miserable? Why do they never smile? [512]

Swedish are most P.C. nation on earth so don't take them as a standard. But deep in their hearts they think they are morally superior nation to others and complain that every country should be like their beloved Svea-mamma.

Sorry for the rant but I can't just stand them :(

I would say that in countries like UK, USA very commercial , money orientated, selfish and inhumane people are much more more lonely and unhappy than in Poland .
And artifical smile means nothing to me. It doesn't mean that soemone is happy or likes you it is just little game, that is all.

I saw less beggars in Krakow than in New York. Poland takes care of it's poor. Maybe it is part of catholicism, I don't know

It amuses me to learn that the Finns are "sociable and open and happy" If that is so why is Finland leader in homicide rates in Europe and number two in suicide rates.

And contrary to common belief: our climate is not that bad. If you can tolerate the cold and snow that is. :) We don't have constant raining during winter, I don't know if the global warming changes that in future...

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

Polish women have incredibly beautiful cheek bones and eyes to match them !:)
That's the most distinctive feature of Polish women, well for me at least.

Polish men are also handsome. Well, how they couldn't be, because I have been mistaken for a Pole several times.:)

Genealogy / Why are some Polish people dark complected, and others very light [511]

Hungarian 60% is surprising cos they are not a Slavic people at all, but related distantly to Finns & Estonians whose most frequent haplotype is N.

Haplotype N is also big in Russia. Czechs used to say that Russians are Slavicized Finns. Hehe :)
Interesting to know that genetic kinship is different from linguistic kinship.

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

Why does everyone say that the most beautiful women in the world are Polish?

Maybe because they are making it big in modelling, acting...
Or maybe they simply are the most beatiful ? :)

I personally like their sensitivity and empathy most. maybe that's what makes them so beatiful ?

Could be, I dont know much about Swiss. Switzerland is en easy country to defend, a lot of mountains etc. and every male is obligated to own a rifle so it would have been difficult for Germany to invade it. So Swiss were not obligated to co-operate in that sense.

But on the other hand the biggest sissies were Germans, they cried like babies when the wind turned on them: ooh Dresden was bombed, oooh we are like sooooo victims.

i was just reading Finnish forum were my country Women were praising German "gentlemen" : it made me puke. Germans' girlfriends were given far too lenient terms: you Dutches treated them like they should have been treated. I am so ashamed of my country sometimes. I would rather be Pole or Dutch...

But then again: who would want to date a German?

someone with a bad taste I suppose

I guess the Germans'women must be tight, considering it was Germans who wanted smaller condom sizes:

History / What do Poles think about Turks? [761]

ok, now I have read it. Have to say that comparing Byzantine empire and US empire doesnt work. USA hasnt been expanding its territories since the Spanish war. In fact they want to get out of Iraq ASAP. Sure USA is fighting for its interests, every country,big or small, looks after its interests, but this has nothing to do expansionism.

History / What do Poles think about Turks? [761]

Osiol:) I'd be much more concerned with both Sweden's as well as little Finland's treatment of its Saami (commonly known as 'Lapp') minority to the North than about the Karelian population in Western Russia!

Actually the Saami are doing quite good nowadays in Scandinavian area. As for Karelians, they are small people who eventually will be Russianized. It is neither "good" nor "bad", just part of natural process of cultures absorbing to bigger ones.

Culture's death is not always result of genocide etc.

Their position during WWII vis-a-vis Germany, despite the heroic stance of Mannerheim against the Soviet invasion, remains a serious issue in their past. Like Norway, Finland didn't exactly stand up politically against Hitler.

it sure is. I am not proud of everything my country has done.

Maxx, I have many Finnish acquaintances and all of them speak excellent Swedish. My Finnish is rudimentary at best, but I have basic survival skills. English might be a poor choice, save perhaps at a class hotel in the center of Halsingfors, oops, Helsinki.-:) LOL

:)
Välkommen ! Tervetuloa !

I respect Turks for their efforts to modernize to society. They fared far better than in arab countries. As for membership in EU, dont know. Religion shouldnt play an issue here, even though I am not a fan of Islam.

History / What do Poles think about Turks? [761]

An unrelated thread, Maxx, but it has been asserted numerous times over the years by various linguists, that the Finnic or 'Fenno-Ugric' languages are in fact related to the Turkic :)

well modern linguistics dont think so. Sure there are similarities, but they are probably result of interaction than of relation. It is understandable when you consider that Uralic (Finns,Estonians, Hungarians,...) and Altaic (Turks, Mongols,...) were living in same areas thousands years ago. But science progresses and maybe sometime in future the Uralo-Altaic theory is in limelight again.

Weird thing is: Hungarians dont like Finns and see themselves more as a Turkic people but Turks like Finns and see themselves related Finns. Quite a weird "triangle"...

History / What do Poles think about Turks? [761]

sorry for the late replies, I have been at the countryside with no ISPs

We like Hungarians too.

In Ottoman times, Finns were Turks are our relatives. Because we were strong.
Now, they say threr is not any relation with Turks, we are Viking ! :)

I dont think so, in Ottoman times Finns were fighting against Turks in Russian army for example in Crimean War and Russo-Turkish 1878. On the other hand I have no problem of being "related to" Turks, I could have a problem with being related to Hungarians cant understand them really :P .

The pseudoscience which tries to link Finns to Vikings(or the Goths) is indeed stupid, each nation should stand on its own than boast about its possible relation to some more bad*ss nation.There was probably some finns sailing with Vikings but that doesnt make them "related"

Rather complicated to go into, but this is the "short" version :) LOL

and politics plays its part too: whole Fenno-Ugric group has been seen either as Hapsburg plot (late 19th, early 20th century) or as a Moscows plot (modern times) to take Hungarians their pride away
