Life / Is Poland a poor country? [578]

the mass emigration is because while they aren't poor they believe people have it better somewhere else grass is always greener on the other side etc. You don't have to be rich to not be poor poland is not rich but it is not poor.

The solution to modernity parents making enough money to spoil their kids but not doing it, making kids earn things work for things learn the value of hard earned money. It is not always possible, but when it is eating dinner with the kids at the table and talking to each other putting cell phones down. Families dont talk anymore. The solution is obvious people just don't care they always do what is easier and the world is suffering for it the western world is full of spoiled rotten selfish brats who have no idea what hard work is what is going to happen if and when north america sees another great depression and these kids who will now be adults will have to work and scrape and save to survive ... i am scared to see what will happen.

Pip is right not having 2 cars, an iphone and a 64 inch t.v in every room of your house does not make you poor.... it is excessive some people who are very well off don't have that why because they are practical and it isnt necessary. Poor by western standards is not poverty.

Wow ...ilmc, you sure are one ignorant dude.

yet im not so ignorant as to ignore someones gender... im a girl not a dude
and people leave poland to search for the non existant american dream... i am not saying poland has it made i am saying that the world has been so brainwashed about the great life over here in the western world that they are willing to leave their home countries in search of it... most end up dissapointed. I am saying that while they may not be rich financially they are certainly not a poverty stricken country in the world view of things. you need a lesson on what matters in life.

I am live in canada i am surrounded by the effects richness has on people and it is disturbing. i make enough money to be able to afford a large home with a bathroom for each bedroom a large t.v in every room and all of life's luxuries yet that is not what is important to me, when that is what becomes important families suffer. i live in a modest home with one bathroom one t.v that i rarely turn on we eat dinner at the table we talk my cell phone is used for emergencies the simple life has its benefits that i because of the modest life style i chose could easily stay home and not work while my husband works and raise my children with their mother at home. I see nothing wrong with being financially stable but when you let it corrupt you and replace what is truly important in life, family, values, morales, ethics taking care of each other that is when it becomes wrong.

home cooking is cheaper than eating out here to actually if a person is intelligent about it. ofcourse it is cheaper to go to mcdonals than the grocery store but then one could argue that the slop at mcdonalds is not actually food. proper planning and meal prep could lead to eating at home being just as cheap as eating out but people still dont do it. They don't have time here unfortunatly in order to maintain and sustain the level of luxury that most people have decided they aspire to requires both parents to work long hours.

Despite the almost p3undone-like lack of punctuation (lol), that's a great post

while i am capable of using punctuation i am corrupted by my western ways into being far too lazy to do it :) lol and it's so much more fun to make people try and figure out where the actual punctuation should be to make my statement read like it was supposed to.

throwing in comma's and periods takes too long haha i figure you are mostly intelligent enough people you will figure it out.

Lessons in humility cannot be taught through words they can only be learned through mistakes.

so i have two points :) yay i win. I would like to point out your use of punctuation seems plentiful in this thread lol although it is from a different thead i know you will get my point and possibly give me three points.

to stay on topic and further what i have said, i don't personally agree with prostitution i would never be a prostitue nor hope it for my future children but i have no right to dictacte what another woman or man does willingly with his or her body nor should the government or the police. It is the worlds oldes proffession after all and how is a woman willingly getting porked for a sum of money and less degrading to her than willingly porking any random guy she meets for no money at all. if you're going to be a hoe might as well make money off of it.

Life / Which animals are native to Poland? [58]

not even in a sense... she/he is prostituting themselves if you are with someone you will be having sex with them at some point so if you dont care about them and are not sexually attracted to them but you are in fact having intercourse with them in order to gain something for yourself that would be prostitution. How many men and women do this? If your girlfriend dumps you because she got all she wanted out of you and isnt interested anymore (maybe you lost a fortune on the stock market or something) can you charge her with prostitution, no ... atleast someone taking money from someone in exchange for sex isnt causing any emotional damage, atleast that person is being honest about their intentions perhaps there is more class in that.

MoOli
doesn't appeal to me. The same reason i would never be a nurse nothing wrong with nurses good for them but not a job i would want to do mostly because im squimish. I couldn't imagine being paid money to allow someone i found unattractive do me... bluck

UK, Ireland / Polish women in UK caught involved in prostitution scheme [39]

much of it involves human trafficking

yes im aware of that ... i said if a woman is willing there should be nothing illegal about it.
if she is not willing well it's rape then isnt it and that is already illegal. So because rape is illegal and the whole culture of sex involves people being forced to have it agaisnt their will should sex be illegal... thats pretty rediculous isnt it. As long as she or he is willing to trade sex for money ... why should it be illegal

what about if an attractive guy would pay you for sex?

hmm well if i were single and he was someone i found sexually attractive and wanted to be with sexually anyway and he was willing to pay me for something i woudl give him for free... sure why not

USA, Canada / Do many Polish people in America hate Americans? [592]

Although the ones in America are doing a lot better than the ones in Canada

true... but the ones in canada have many opportunities they are chosing not to embrace. free post secondary education no taxes free housing if you live on a reserve etc... i am not saying that makes up for anything and i honestly dont feel like we need to make up for anything i live in a community where the population is majority native canadian and i am all for helping those who need help if they are willing to help themselves but when you are not willing to help yourself i am certainly not going to go out of my way for you. what i see in my community drunk by ten a.m, knocking on my door begging for food or smokes living on welfare no desire to get a job subsidised housing no encouragement for their children to get a good education or take advantage of the free education opportunity it is disgusting. Are there reasons for drug and alcohol addiction in the native community in Canada absolutly residential schools were hell and did a lot ... a lot of damage but you can only get past it if you make a choice to get past it and we can only make ammenmds if you make a choice to accept them. the vast majority of native people in this country of mine are lazy and want something to cry about... there are some who are not unfortunatly the rest make it bad for all of them sponges on society by choice at this point.

Life / Why is circumcision not practiced in Poland? [701]

most in north america who do it are made to believe that it is "healthier" and society dictates it to be more "asthetically pleasing" so parents think they are doing the right thing.

Love / Observations and experiences so far about Polish women [93]

oh good this again.... a woman who falls in love too fast, is insanely jealous and is untrusting usually has self esteem issues and it has nothing to do with nationality. Maybe you're a bit of a douche bag and are hard to trust...perhaps it is you and your friends not them you already said you think it is a negative thing to value love over sex i could see it being difficult to trust someone like that and i am not polish...Women everywhere are crazy to men who don't have the care to really understand them. Lucky for you since you have such a dislike for women in poland you shouldn't have to worry so much but any of them dating you.
