UK, Ireland / Sad life of a Polish migrant in the UK. Ch. 5 - Racism [259]
Hmmmmmm.... I wanted to laugh when you said British people are racist. I am mixed race
black/white and the only racism I have received in the past few years has been from Polish men.
Britain is one of the most multi-cultural countries in Europe. When it comes to British people, if you don't integrate, maybe kiss a bit of ass, you won't fit in no matter what colour you are, especially if you are considered from a poor country or "third world".
Every country has racism but it is far less here.
The thing that puzzles me is, Poland has gone through horrible phases like World War 2 and death camps. Even receiving racism from British cause of the employment situation. You would think because of this they would be more accepting of people's differences. But most seem to be Homophobic and have racist views.
I understand that back in Poland it is very mono-cultured but I just think Polish people living abroad need to accept the bigger world out there in order to fit in more.

Love / English girl. Do Polish men afraid to show their feelings or they are just not comfortable in UK? [84]
To me a lot of Polish live in my area. They keep to themselves at any cost. Personally they seem outgoing, so they can't be shy. It's either, they feel uncomfortable around British people cause many local British see them as having taken potentials jobs ( another story, another thread) Or they are just stuck up?
Kinda sad considering Polish people look like fun, funny people. They need to start opening up more...
