Travel / Poland from a Persian Tourist's Perspective [269]

Yes

how do you personally feel being a persian from such a rich culture basically ruled by this backward bunch of know it alls.

No... More women go to university then men.

a cleric would have disposition to muslims though?

man, that situation sounds fooked up. you could be the brightest student academically but if you're aint got the money then you struggle.

As for getting a degree back home that's impossible, thanks to the British governments overthrow of our government we now have the clerics running everything.

do you have any resentment towards islam as well?

Millions of people apply for 50.000 available spots and you have to be extremely lucky just to even get a spot and even luckier to get a spot for the degree you actually want. Winning the lottery is an easier feat.

im guessing the criteria is pretty simple...male, muslim and preferrably connections.

Australia / Finding work on Prospective marriage visa, Melbourne ( subclass 300 ) [30]

asik

id personally prefer that australia give residency to people that wait for 2-3 years in rat infested, fresh water-less, stank refugee camps than people with money that cant be arsed waiting and can pay a smuggler 500k to get them to australian waters.

Huh? So if your wife was paralyzed and couldn't have sex you wouldn't love her anymore?

as matowy said, that alone wouldnt preclude her from having sex.

Simply not true... at all.

most couples that are in love are sexually attracted to each other.

maybe i was generalising/presuming all couples in love are sexually active. i personally dont know of any that arent.

so you practice incest? wtf! whats with the morons out in full force on pf. lol

the love between a couple is entirely different to the love between family members.

why dont you go back to that rock you just crawled out from.

I'm just going to GTFO of this forum now forever

Don't bother replying. This is my last post on this forum.

I'm Out

I'm kinda tired of this so I'm just going to keep it short and neat with my last reply.

This can go on forever so I'm just gonna leave the conversation at that.

once polish forums has you, then you can never escape.

Travel / Poland from a Persian Tourist's Perspective [269]

if you butt into a discussion and take sides then you're part of it

i didnt take sides and dont condone racist behaviour.

i merely asked you why is that other ethnic groups that are dark skinned/haired dont have the same anti-social behaviour when migrating to other countries.

your issues stem from traveling to the backwaters of poland, to be honest if you went to some rural lil town in australia you would probably experience the same thing. if i traveled to some rural indian town then i would no doubt experience the same thing.

it is a forum, where discussion and debate happens, yet you seem to want to throw labels at people. it is a lot easier for you to throw the "racist" card at another poster as "i win and end of discussion" than talk about why.

i apologise for my generalisation about iranian women. i hope that you too can apologise for your generalisations of "white people".

hence your justification for this behavior and inability to condemn it.

ummm, please do tell me where i have justified racist behaviour.

arguing race based topics with untrue statements and a vilifying agenda at mind along with other specific posters.

you brought up the race issue, i merely made a comment on it.

and i have made no vilifying or disparaging remarks regarding iran or the middle east, feel free to prove otherwise.

No it's not. They were white Europeans who came to a country that was already occupied by other white Europeans. All they had to do was to assimilate, talk the same way, eat the same food, adopt the same values. After a generation or two they where the same as the locals.

i think you are generalising the experience of these migrants based on your preconceived ideas about what racism/bigotry should be.

have you seen many spanish, italians or greeks? olive skin and dark hair.

and chinese, they would experience a lot of racism, but they always seem to thrive where they settle.

im not saying it is okay and racism/bigotry is good but it is interesting to see how different culutres and ethnic groups handle such adversity.

Of course you can't comprehend these kind of thoughts so I'm not going to discuss this topic any further.

what, coz i dont have dark hair or dark skin im not allowed to experience bigotry or comment on it. your view is as narrow minded as those you're condemning.

As for the whole issue about immigrants acting a certain way when they've lived in Europe I don't have much to say.

that is just an excuse.

many different europeans (poles, italians, germans, ukranians, etc) all migrated to australia after ww2. they were often met with racism and called names like ****.

you know what they did, ignored it and worked hard and built a life for themselves.

I don't know why people keep claiming that we have a problem with the Jews or anyone else for that matter.

whether it is wrong or right, ahmedinejad is a mouth piece for your country.

polaron i think.

they do charge an arm and leg, but they do all the work for you.

and matowy, im contemplating initiating the same procedure, not for eu benefits but so that if i ever decide to travel to europe i can travel easier. and so my future children (god help the world) can also freely travel to europe and work if they so wish.

Australia / Poles in Australia - money for start, chances for a job, costs of living (Brisbane, Bunbury) [50]

Since you're there, what's you take on it?

australia has a stern immigration policy on illegal entries yes.

but on the otherside we have been handing out permanent residency like swap cards to students (mainly indian) that come here to study in areas that are needed like hairdressers and chefs.

i think what flogtime25 was referring to was more the colonial treatment of aborigines and subsequent treatment over the years.

apart from that, i dont see australia as any more/less racist than any ther country i have been to.

Iranian women are one of the most beautiful women I've seen! And they know how to take care about their looks - have a very good taste in clothes, make-up, are in fashion.

easy on the eye....yes.

its the hair on the bodies that is the turn off.

UK, Ireland / Marrying Polish Woman in UK/London [100]

not when you were letting any tom, dick and harry in through the back door...we had a system whereby students could come to australia and study in a field that was a needed skill here and gain permanent residency (PR) after.

the problem being we end up with a lot of indians with MBA's studying to be chefs or hairdressers but with no inclination to pursue that skill and just to get their PR. they then cannot get into their field of study back in india as invariably you need experience.

in addition, college's realising this loop hole where full fee paying students paid 20-30k to get into these courses really ramped up their business to lure these students.

Australia / Thinking about moving to Australia [39]

when was the last time you come across a deadly spider? Can I suggest Never.

i have come across redbacks, way back when i was young and told to get out of the house.

i do come across white tail spiders who, whilst not fatal, can leave quite a mark where they bite you and you could end up in hospital.

funny, we were just discussing this:
news.theage.com.au/breaking-news-national/child-airlifted-after-snake-bite-20100304-pkhg.html

Central Melbourne

i grew up and live in the inner north.

i am never uncomfortable in the melbourne cold, but i am an office jockey and choose to wear a an overcoat type thing instead of a suit jacket.

Life / Giving tips in Poland [233]

good service shouldnt correlate to what type of tip you leave.

in australia, we generally dont tip (as waiting staff are generally paid ok) and only if we did get good service. definitely wouldnt tip a pizza delivery person.

what are the corkage rates like in the states/europe?
