501 Survival Tips for Men: Making Your Way in a World Full of Women
So you have found yourself a nice, cute and intelligent Polish girl.
Because of your British or American passport you have a natural status advantage (regardless of the fact you’re a poor English teacher). You use this passport advantage to overcome the fact the you, yourself, are an ugly, semi-alcoholic teacher and you manage to strike a romance with said girl.
So what can you expect from a Polish girl?
1. Beauty - More than likely, she will be far more attractive than majority of the overweight, underdressed ladies you can find in the U.K. But don’t let this beauty make you feel inferior. Good looking woman are quite easy to come by in Poland, so she won’t feel too superior, as there are plenty of alternatives. The secret of their improved beauty? White cheese – Wiejski Serek- Take a walk down any high street at lunchtime in spring and you will find all the ladies sat on benches enjoying the sunshine and consuming small pots of this cheese. It seems to be some form of magical elixir.
2. Stubborn – But not like regular stubbornness you may have encountered before. This is maximum stubbidity. Don’t expect to negotiate anything. You will have black and white terms and conditions.
3. Protective – Look at another girl? Expect to receive a powerful right handed punch to your jaw and mysteriously you never find the other girl again. But that bulk ‘lamb’ your wife bought sure tastes good even if it does inexplicably taste like white cheese and chicken.
4. Ambitious – Every Polish woman is ambitious. Normally they study hard into their early thirties, probably they will have a masters degree and numerous other qualifications. At the minimum she will speak two second languages. This focus on academia doesn’t depend on intellectual ability (although she will be intelligent), it comes from an insatiable desire to do better… It sure makes the fact that you’re a poorly qualified, linguistically inept teacher to shame.
5. Thrifty – Even though you are a poor English teacher being with a Polish woman can be quite an lucrative experience as Polish women seem to be naturally thrifty. I know young graduates, working for around $500 at HP that manage to fund exotic, jet setting, lifestyles for themselves and their man. Definitely a useful attribute.
How to survive them?
Do everything they say. Simple.
That’s my indespensible,useless advice… anything I have missed?

True, True, True...
The cheese thing, never thought about it before but your right =)
they eat the stuff everywhere, I have even seen it eaten with jam, lol,
It all seems a bit french to me...
Do you really think the husband hunters still exist in Poland? I thought with the E.U. being so open the lure of a British passport would have disappeared?
I think the passport effect still works, but I agree, to a lesser extent than say 15 years ago.
Maybe they fall in love with the idea of a stereotypical Englishman or American, but I doubt it.
i dont think that English or American passport effect still works. I'm Polish girl and i disagree. everything depends if you are smart, intelligent and if you are able to care about the girl.
I don't agree ether, I think that's the most ignorant thing to say about Polish people, and from your Blog you left England with your (I guess Polish wife) not the other way around!
I think my post was quite positive towards Polish women, I was simply stating the fact that holding a British or American Passport is something of an advantage, maybe because people are curious?
For example, in U.K.an Italian or Spaniard is probably going to have an advantage with the ladies because of peoples curiosity, these people have good reputations right ;)
Yes I left Poland with my wife, and providing my Polish improves, i'll be exchanging my British passport for a Polish one in 30months.
The most intelligent, beautiful and ambitious women I have ever met are Polish. Polish men are very lucky...
The problem is the passport effect does work, I am a Polish lady and I know it works. I see it in my colleges and friends.
But its interesting to see your opinion on Polish ladies, and yes I think your opinion is good! :) :) ;)
i just can't believe anybody would be attracted to a British passport, oh well, I may be wrong.... you must be a charmer TEFLER?
Englishmen have great sense of humour. Polish women like that. They also love interesting stories (comparing to Englishmen Poles are a little bit MORE boring). Come to Poland, drink with us and make yourselves at home British citizens. :)
I'm a bit surprised at your perspectives. I've never quite understood the tendency to 'exoticize' cross-cultural relationships, or to draw blanket assumptions about all the 'women' or 'men' from a particular country or region. In my own experiences, I've found that dating someone with a different cultural background than my own only illuminates the similarities between people, rather than the differences. This, as well as the nuances of personality, breaks stereotypes, rendering the generic statements like the ones here (ALL Polish are beautiful, ALL Polish woman are stubborn, etc) weak and meaningless.
You know, the original post was intended to be a tongue in cheek complement to the many Polish female friends I have, and of course my wife, who reads this blog.
Of course blanket statements are always false and never represent the whole but to pretend that regional differences don't exist is also false.
In my opinion, Polish women are generally 'stronger' in every respect than women I have got to know from other countries, and this statement is a 100% good thing.
On a side note, this post is by far the most read on the site, I hope all those that take a read, feel and understand the positive impression I was trying to create.
:)
Like your post its funny post :-) I could write one as well since my woman is French (God help me!) "How to survive French women" would not be so unlike how to survive Polish women but would have a few exceptions !
Its now on my guest writer bit with a link. Thanks.
