Let's just say, if you treat a (non-alcoholic) Polish husband right, you'll very likely have a faithful husband who is attentive to your needs, and a great father to your children. In the neighborhood where I grew up, the guys who hung out at the gas station I worked at, on occasion, got tooted up and headed out to Rocking Chair Helen's for an afternoon of "frolic." The Ukrainian guys, the Italian guys, and the few WASPs that hung out there, were the ones that went. The Polish guys, never. Just an observation - but I believe, it reflects a characteristic of Polish men.
I'm sorry but am I just unlucky. All the polish men I know, including my husband are drunks. Where are all these nice polish men? Are they actually from Poland or second generation, since I think that makes a big difference.
Maybe you are looking in the wrong places to come up with such a bitter conclusion. Have you looked in the mirror and ask yourself why you attract such men ?
@Been there.done I am sorry for your bad experience but I would ask you not to generalize. I am a husband and a father, I work hard to provide for my family and to raise my kids in good values with a spine and moral compass.
About alcohol - why is this stereotype still repeated despite of data and studies on alcohol consumption indicates Poland is just average. We also have plenty of non-drinkers, especially in the generation below the age of 40.
Polish and russian men have a reputation for drinking too much. I don't know why so many polish men on this sight are offended. Are you serious. Are you really saying polish men don't drink a lot and of that a lot of them are not alcoholics . What other culture puts huge vodka bottles on the table when their is a party. Western Europeans put a bottle of wine not 40% proof alcohol so everyone can get smashed. Please face reality and go to an AA meeting.
Statistically over 185 countries Poland is tied with another country at #13 for alcoholic consumption per person. WOW sounds really sober country to me. The men on this sight defending themselves only prove that the are egocentric, closed minded, old fashioned, chauvinistic and yes they make bad husbands. Sorry but true.
closed minded, old fashioned, chauvinistic and yes they make bad husbands.
You'll have to do a lot better than that! We've had many good guest trolls here, much better than you. Go back and practice some more and try again later...LOL Cheers!!
Of course. But you should find and seduce one who likes partying, drinking, smoking - generally, having fun in life. Those teetotellers are extremely dull guys, you will die of dead boredom in your marriage.
Do Polish men make good husbands/slaves ? All the Polish women I know today are more masculine than men, make more money than men, have more tattoos than men, drink more than men, swear more than men, and are more intelligent...than men... sh*t man......the question should be, "do Polish women make good wives ?"
anyway i am not sure that having a job and a wide vocabulary is an indication of not being 'feminine'. Women have always had jobs and potty mouths, surely..?
if that is kind of woman that attracts you, carry on.
Indeed, Roz. Johnny has always admired you chopping your own wood and drinking beer directly out of the bottle ... He called you: my kind of a woman, don't you remember?
Back when men were men, and women were women (the old days) the idea that women's greatest goal was to be totally hot and attractive in order to "bait" and get with the wealthiest men is preposterous in modern western culture today.
yes, indeed, Ziemo, I do recall that. He also got quite excited by the thought of me wearing a blue checked lumberjack shirt while i did those things....hardly the most 'feminine' garment ever...
Well, the job thing worked a bit differently in Poland than in other countries. Women worked and earned money a lot more than in rest of Europe and USA. After war that is how it was. Not that many stay at home housewives.

With two button down pockets with the sleeves rolled up and a pair of muddy boots.

Now I know why my Polish babcia was always telling me to find a Polish girl to marry. Again, those were the "old days" and times sure have changed. Today the feminist movement women talk in code that men must decode. Coded: "Of course I would give up my career if my husband asked me." Decoded: "Once he is earning enough money, I am never going to work again."
I don't know who these 'feminist movement' women are, JR, and I suspect, neither do you, as you have never met any woman who said this. You are just making it up as you go along to fit your own 'weltanschauung'.
It reminds me of those English who are always telling the same anecdote about how they went into a shop in Wales, where everyone was talking English, and as soon as they entered, the people switched language and started talking Welsh!!
BTW this never happened to anyone, yet people repeat it endlessly as an anecdote of their life experience...
That is a new one. More often I hear complaints how today's women don't line up to give up their lives and look after their man as a 'real' women should.
And no, still Poland is not really the housewives tyoe of country. . The difference between Europe and USA would be mostly maternity- about a year in most cases to stay at home and look after the baby. If you have 3 in a row it's few years out of work More and more countries insist on it being shared by both parents thougb
oh yes and how 'unfeminine' we all are these days, whatever that means. the very word 'feminine' gives me the shudders. I mean, I am not crying about 'unmasculine' men am I?
