A Public Apology

After having corresponded with an elderly Polish acquaintance of mine at some length since my last post, I must confess that much of the information which I posited was deemed in large part false!

However, the individual in question admitted that there were sporadic instances of that which I described, but that they were quite few and far between.

This gentleman was a bldg. contractor in Warsaw and someone who was active during the years 1960-1985, during which, he'd have had ample opportunity to experience the Communist system first hand.

Being an English teacher, you can do us all a favor and try to convince Lyzko that communicating is more like speed skating than figure skating...He is always figure skating...leaving us confused about where he is going...

It is about the attitude of Polish women towards foreigners.

Focus on the topic and not the individual........where did I hear that before ?

What I posted was crystal clear to all who can read, Rich!
Apparently, it was confirmed by an unbiased, reliable, native-speaking Polish source from someone whom I respect, that women on average in fact did NOT engage in promiscuous sex during Communism in Poland in order to exact favors from the officials.

Then again, there were some exceptions. It seems my former remarks were misconstrued ( as usual!) to be a blanket statement.

you posted there in the middle of our discussion:

No, I wasn`t participating in your discussion. I only talked to Fenix for a while. :):)

@pawian, I didn't write that you participated in our discussion (I noticed that you didn't). I wrote that you posted in that thread in the middle of our discussion, because you claimed that you "didn't look there".

you claimed that you "didn't look there".

Yes, it completely escaped my attention. Probably I talked to Fenix without even looking at the title of the thread.

Exactly! Great minds think alike. :):):)

because you claimed that you "didn't look there".

Coz I didn`t, I swear. :):):) I spotted Fenix`s post on the home page and replied. That happened without my looking into the thread, at the time I wasn`t in the mood to discuss promiscuous women. Ha!.
