News / Poland`s aid to Ukraine if Russia invades - part 10 [732]

You obviously have not been to the US of late.

I've never been to the US and that's why I keep asking you guys about the stats in that video, but noone answers me :)))

In the US women do not stay at home to work, less than 20% stay home for more than a few weeks, then the kid is off to daycare.

Listen, I don't know what the situation in the US is like, but I'm guessing that it's women who are staying with kids at home when they get sick (and small kids often get sick), not men, etc.

Also, there are different levels of gender pay gaps in different countries. So why do you think it's like that? In Poland the situation is apparently quite good in comparison to other countries. Interestingly, the gender pay gap in Poland is much smaller in the private sector than in the public sector. Why do you think is that? Are women "far superior" employees in some countries than in others? Are Polish women "far superior" employees in a private sector than in a public sector? Are they working longer hours, harder and better?

And you were just arguing about reduced population growth, so how are women haveing more children?

Where did I write that "women are having more children"?

The facts are that less than 4% of men are over 183 cm, making more than 200K USD, handsome and fit. Women want the absolute best,

Well, who wouldn't want the "absolute best", but, AGAIN, I'm asking - are they pursuing those unrealistic fantasies until they die alone (and how many women are like that in the US) or do they settle for what they can actually get like most people? So, AGAIN, are those stats given in this video true or not?:

Many white women have a fetish for black men, which should be a humiliation for a black man

That's the first I hear of it lol Is it another "male myth about women"? Maybe there are some women like that, but I haven't heard about there being "many" of them.

In the past, white slave owners used to oppress black women for the same reasons.

Because they had "big cocks"? o_O 🤣

Some women don't have and will never have kids.

The employer doesn't have a crystal ball, so he or she doesn't know if that will be the case or not. It's not like women come with a sign on their forehead "I will never have kids" lol Besides, I imagine that childless women (who remain childless) are in a small minority.

A man nurse or teacher gets paid the same hourly rate as a woman nurse or teacher if all else is equal.

How do you know? And where? And what about other jobs?

The American comments of wanting a tall man, wealthy, good looking and to spend large sums on their pretty things, is the most accurate picture of the average American women that could be portrayed.

Well, I'm sure majority of women in this world (not only in the US) wouldn't mind dating or even getting married to "a tall man, wealthy, good looking who would spend large sums on their pretty things" if he was the right guy for them, just like majority of men wouldn't mind dating or even getting married to a supermodel with an amazing body, great cooking skills and ready to give birth to 10 children lol, but those are just fantasies and majority of people settle for the reality, don't they? Or are the stats given in this video not true?:

If it existed, every comapny would only hire women.

No, they wouldn't, because women get pregnant and have to take care of kids if they get sick, etc.

When in fact men work more hours

Because their wives take care of their kids.

When women start being 50% of the plumbers, electricians, auto mechanics, and a whole host of other very difficult and under appreciated jobs, then I might buy into it.

Sorry, but when men start being 50% of nurses, caregivers, primary and secondary teachers, cleaning ladies, etc. and take up 50% of duties at home (taking care of kids included) and 50% of fathers will take care of their seriously ill or disabled kids - then I might treat your comment seriously.

@Korvinus, your comment is very dramatic, but makes no sense :) Majority of people are getting married and having kids. Women aren't getting "uglier and coarser" than men.

I say with great confidence such females are as hopelessly doomed as dodo

So, why "such women" are "hopelessly doomed as dodo"? What about those men who can't seem to adapt to the new reality? Apparently "Loneliness has a face of a young man", so it looks like women are managing on their own better than men.

@mafketis, then explain these comments of yours to me, please :):

Edward Bernays would be proud....

He's the one who figured out (in the US) how to get women to smoke....

pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torches_of_Freedom

I get a lot of Bernays vibes today around

You can get women to act against their own interest by framing it as opposition to male power...

And what do you think about this answer? :):

Ah, so you think women can't possibly know what they want and are just brainwashed "lemmings" following some mischievous propaganda? lol

too many women want very tall men who make a lot of money who want to shower them with money and gifts

Oh, so the usual American (male?) nonsense :)))
Well, this is the answer to this, I guess (btw, I love this guy lol):

facebook.com/share/v/QbPvBcheKAg368xe/

I mix with women of all ages and I don't know any women like this. Only in America!!

The same. It seems like the US is an alternative reality, although is it really the case? Dating coaches deal with people who need help with dating and they need help for a reason... Majority of people somehow manage to date without the help of coaches. So those are not "average" women. All this talk about women having expectations, but having nothing to show in return - firstly, the same can be said about men, secondly - basing your opinion about women on some random TikTokers posting for attention seems kind of stupid to me... Again, those are not "average" women... o_O

The normal people are just to normal, rarely make it onto a cover and never the headline....but we are the majority, in the US also as in "degenerate" Europe

Yup, that's my take on it too... Normal people will most probably find normal people to date and get married, but that doesn't make the news or will get views on TikTok :)

Sound advice. I can only repeat it.

I never lecture people on how to live.

You were telling me and Lenka to have kids, for example, although it's obviously none of your business :) You were also claiming all kinds of unfavourable stuff about women and people in general who don't plan to have kids.

Like what? You mean calling you a 'spinster'?

Nope, worse.

It's not a nasty remark.

You don't know if I'm single though and I haven't noticed you calling men on this forum "bachelors" when you don't agree with them :)))

(and the poor guy in Kielce who has my sympathy ;)).

You see, and this is an unnecessary, mean remark. I may not agree with your views on marriage or whatever, but I'm not making such comments about your wife/you/your marriage.

Those were two links I found in about three seconds.... lots more out there. Lots.

There are also anti-vax people and all kinds of other people with more or less strange views out there.

why do they need 'affirmative' stuff?

Because they're being judged by their families, maybe friends and society in general for not having kids. This forum is a good example of that.

and those who want kids but can't have them don't want someone telling them they're lucky

They may need to see some kind of a "bright side", some positives to their situation in order to be able to go on with life mentally though. To see that there is life without having kids and that you can enjoy it.

I don't recall getting rude about you any more than you getting rude about me. Balance of nature as Pawian says.

I was never making nasty remarks about/related to your personal life. You did about mine though.

I don't want this to sound rude but it really is none of your business.

That's rather rich coming from you considering that you're lecturing others how to live and you were interrogating me about my private life and getting rude about it even though I wasn't asking or commenting about your private life :)))

And, anyways, recently I am able to spend more time with my kids thanks to our shared new hobby!

That's good to hear :)

No?

How's that "discouraging childbirth"? It looks like some "affirmative" stuff for people who don't want to (or can't) have kids already.

youtube.com/@StopHavingKids

Those videos have like just over 1000 views. You know that there are people who believe that the Earth is flat? lol

And come on, it's not like it's some kind of big campaign on national TV or sth.

the inner contradiciton of neoliberalism is that it requires a growing population while discouraging childbirth (unless it can be commodified)

Noone is "discouraging" childbirth. People simply have more options these days. And they have higher expectations from life in general.

Oh, really? Care to provide a quote?

You don't remember your discussion with me and Lenka anymore? :) You know, the one in which you revealed how much you work and how little time you spend with your kids?

whatever husband and wife agree upon when it comes to household resposibilities, it is sacred and it's none of your (or any other spinster's) business what they agree upon.

Hey, it was you who claimed that you share the responsibilities, including taking care of your kids, with your wife. You didn't have to claim that :)

So, it's your wife who's taking care of your kids on the daily basis, she's also doing the cooking and you hire a lady from Winnica for other stuff, yes? So, what are you doing at home exactly?

So, again, it is all about a mutual agreement between two consenting adults.

Do you remember how angry you got at me and Lenka for suggesting that you don't spend enough time with your kids? But later you talked to your wife and it turned out that she agreed. You even stated that you're going to cut down on your working hours a bit, spend less time on PF and more with your kids.

So, there was clearly something that your wife didn't voice in this "mutual agreement" for some reason or this agreement needed to be "updated".

So, shockingly :), you basically listened to an advice of two alleged "spinsters" :)) ;)

No. I want people to be able to express their natural instincts/desires to reproduce (again, within reason) without so much economic pressure and negative incentives in the way.

Well, that's not what I'm seeing in your comments, tbh, which seem to be mainly complaining about "neoliberalism" and people having a choice.

Those behind the AI 'revolution' see themselves as superior beings and they despise you and me....

They're mainly men from what I've noticed, btw (that's info for the PF's misogynists).

do you really want to trust the fate of humanity to them?

No, I'm just saying what the reality is.

Zero doubt...

That's because you have zero objectivity and 100% bias lol

I'd confidently challenge the veracity of that. (...) I know a lot of men who would be labeled traditionalists. I read a shitload of these types of guys also. Not one subscribes to the above caricatures.

You clearly haven't read comments by some of the men on this forum then. Not to mention that there's a whole "subculture" of men (and boys) like that - considering how popular Andrew Tate is.

encourages her to thrive professionally and personally, and shares in household responsibilities.

You're a rather rare case among American men on this forum then. Btw, I'm curious what this "sharing household responsibilities" looks like, because Torq/GefreiterKania claimed something similar, but when he went into details it turned out that it was bullsh1t :))

healthy societies.

Maf, right now, in my opinion, we don't even know what the future holds with the AI revolution ongoing. It may turn out that low birth rates won't be a problem anymore at some point, because there simply won't be enough jobs for people.

Yes! And it's the illusion of endless choice that comes with neoliberalism that means they can't

But you can't force people to have kids. Is that what you want? To force them? Because I don't understand what you want exactly.

Then why aren't they out marching for those things?

Because you can't just wave a magical wand and change the mentality and level of empathy of the hospital staff. You can't make a law that will force men to be better husbands and fathers and share duties at home. People want also to be able to afford having kids and you can't just magically make government do that by passing some law (500+ clearly didn't help long-term).

Or even now in huge swathes of the world. People marry for security, status, duty.

Exactly. And that's what it was like in the past in Europe.

Love

That's what hits me often in those discussions with right-wing men - they don't seem to care about love.

Those marriages are not gonna produce many kids...

Oh, ffs... Then build a farm and grow them if it brothers you so much... 🤮

Again, I never said that.

You kind of did though.

It's difficult to have an honest discussion with you, Paulina.

Not true - you can be honest about being a hypocrite all you want :)))

Isn't it weird that when people talk about reproductive rights it always ends up being about abortion/contraception and not conditions for having children?

Because "reproductive rights" are about the physical act of getting pregnant and giving birth to a baby and not about what happens later to those kids. Hence it boils down to contraception and abortions.

Now, if we discuss how to increase birth rates then we talk about conditions for having children. And women usually give such conditions like more preschools, better conditions for giving birth in hospitals, etc.

human relationships are reduced to commodities...

Sorry, but if you think that human relationships are reduced to "commodities" now, then what were they in the past?

making it harder for people to find acceptable partners

People having higher expectations doesn't mean human relationships have been reduced to "commodities" (even if those expectations are unrealistic in case of some people).

full neoliberal mentality hates the idea of longterm commitment and so a subset of men and women engage in promiscuous behavior with no future and many end up opting out.

I'm honestly wondering where you're getting this stuff from... Is there some kind of "neoliberal Bible" out there? lol

But neoliberalism is all about person choices

So you would rather have no choice?

Sorry for the personal question, maf, but how many children did you "produce" for the good of the society?

The difference is India and most Muslim countries are not on their way to extinction. The West is.

Ah, so it's OK for them to "murder babies" as long as they are not on their way to extinction lol I see, I get it lol It looks like your "morality" is very "pragmatic".

So, those girl babies in India are not "human" enough for you? Is there a "civilisation of death" in India or not?

Sure, sure. Overpopulation.

So you think overpopulation will never happen? And there will be enough of natural resources for everyone?

Killing babies is not immoral nor reprehensible if its done to prevent overpopulation.

You don't have to kill babies to prevent overpopulation. You can just use contraception lol

India gives me some hope

You mean that country where "female foeticide" is so common? lol

So, guys, let me get this right - it's OK when women abort girls in traditional, patriarchal India, but not OK if women abort both genders in "leftist", "neoliberal" countries, yes? :)))

Hey, Poland also had a non-aggression pact with the III Reich (1934-39),

Pumpkin, but it didn't invade the Soviet Union together with the Nazis and didn't partition it between themselves and didn't send the Soviets to f*cking gulags and didn't deport them from their homes, didn't execute them and lie about it for decades, etc.

but you always have to find quarrel in a straw, Paulina :-/

Oh, and you added an unrelated mention of "nazi genocide perpetrators celebrated as national heroes", because you want peace on the forum so bad, sure :))) Btw, this is why I decided to remind you of what the Soviets did in 1939 (and what today's RuSSians are defending and downplaying, just like you did).

@Torq, there has to be some nature left on this planet. We shouldn't cover it all with human settlements. We can't cut down the Amazon Rainforest, the planet's lungs, to make way for farms, for example.

but to say that the planet is overpopulated is nonsense.

It would get overpopulated at some point with your attitude. So when would you think it would be OK to stop listening to God about "multiplying"? Or you just wouldn't care and you would tell people to follow it blindly no matter what happens as result?
