Life / Why is circumcision not practiced in Poland? [701]
it is done across the board in north american because years ago a dr. published a paper suggesting it was possibly healthier and more hygenic ofcourse the paper was published without much research and it held little fact. People read it health care proffessionals started pushing it and then it caught on. Dr's caught on quickly that it is not healthier or more hygenic at all and there are really no benefits to it but ofcourse it made money so it was kept pretty hush for a while by the time it started to get around that it was not beneficial at all almost all young boys who were born had it done so parents continued to do it for asthetic reasons if no other. Only recently have papers been published to suggest it is actually beneficial to retain the foreskin for protection as well as pleasure this is slowly starting to spread around and people are slowly catching on that however some still opt to have it done to their newborns because they fear him being different. In Canada they are no longer training doctors to circumsize so you have to either have a dr. already trained in your town or city or bring the child somewhere that does in my hometown the dr who knowns how is 64 and will be retiring soon and this is the case all over canada in the next 20 years there will be next to no dr.'s if any that know how to do it and in 30 years it will be a done deal. People will either have to bring their babies to the states to have it done or not have it done. The high cost of travel and medical procedures in the united states should stop the majority of people from going there so it will slowly fade off here and not be practiced anymore.

USA, Canada / Why do Americans (and Canadians) hate Polish people? [226]
it's called a touque :)
some people hate everyone that is their own issue if you let it worry you you are making it your issue. I think it is a rare thing in Canada and the united states for someone to hate someone else simply becasue they are polish or russian or british or italian or whatever they are... they may hate a polish person for other qualities but becaue they are polish that is not so common these days. It does still happen although in Canada i see it more so towards native canadians than polish people and in the states more so towards mexicans than polish people... again it is their own person issue why make it your own.

Life / Why is circumcision not practiced in Poland? [701]
i will admit the first time i saw an uncircumsized penis i was rather put off...since my boyfriend is polish he is not circumsized and .. since i plan to have children with him if it is a boy he is adamant he will not be circusized so i have done research. There is no medical proof that circucision is better or worse. As long as the child is shown proper hygiene it is fine. When it is erect it is no different than a non circumsized penis and if you are doing it right it should be erect so whats the problem. men who are not circumsized are also more sensitive because the head is always covered and isnt rubbing against their underwear or pants all day so it is more fun to. :)

a lot of american hockey teams are better these days ( most of them are filled with canadian players though) Depending where you moved you would be surprised about the differences in culture. that being said this is a post about polish people hating americans not canadian culture so lets not change the subject... bash on polish american haters bash on . lol ...
And if you moved to any english speaking country the adjustment would not be as difficult as say moving to some parts of europe. I don't think britain or scotland or ireland or australia would be any more of an adjustment for you than canada... Just the weather in each country lol. That is just simply a reduction of language barrier and not necessarily all aspects of the culture. Some americans would have more difficulty fitting in in Canada than others would. Depends where they are from and where they are going.

we all generalize, i would hope in todays day and age no one is ignorant enough to assume all people in every country are exactly the same. Then again maybe i am hoping too much. I will state again as i have stated time and time again i do not hate every american i don't even know ever american and thus cant have an opinion on every american. I have met a number of americans some i liked some i did not ... my dislike has nothing to do with individual people just the country as a whole does nothing for me. I have meet a lot of ( not a lot not all) pushy arrogant americans who think the sun shines out of their countries ass and they are the best thing in the world just because they are an american that attitude i dislike. I am Canadian i love my country but i am well aware it has it's issues as well as it's great points, as do all countries. Most americans ( again most) are either completley blind to any issues or refuse to acknowledge them and usually resort to ya well if there was a war between us we would kick ur butt... i mean really. When i said it is not only polish people in america that hate americans i was simply stating there is a lot of negativity coming at americans from all corners of the world they arent as well liked as maybe they once were so is american the greatest country in the world no... not anymore.

stop trying to generalize french canadian vs english canadian... my experiences are neither french nor english simply just .. mine and have nothing to do with my language. There are canadians who identify as french canadian some who identify as english canadian and then most of them just identify as canadian yes even in quebec (depending where) I dont speak about americans any particular way as a whole.. I have had many bad experiences with americans and i have never met another canadian in all my love that loves the usa and everything about it... like i said most dont give a hoot.

But Mike has survived a couple years so far lucky lucky guy.

Personal opinion french is a nicer language it sounds romantic and musical but... english is more practical.
