Maybe it was true 10 years ago, but now in big cities at least, 95% polish girls have already met foreigners in a way or other. In remote area you can find some girls who haven't met any foreigners yet, but it means they don't speak English.
I think roosh wrote something about it when Poland was invaded by spaniards and they were going to girl saying just "hi, I'm spanish". But this time is over.
third to italian and latin? i dont know most poles i've talked to don't like the aggressive nature of the spainard or the italian, they seem very stalkerish.
Polish people hate Brits, I've had a suprisingly warm response in contrast. Possibly because I live here, I don't speak a single word of polish either. I've only met 2 girls who didn't speak English and Google came to hand then.

That's because of the stag parties that frequent Krakow - there's lots of places where it's still relatively unspoiled in this regard. I didn't experience any hostility at all, the opposite actually.
If you're a well-behaved Brit, you'll stand out. You stand out anyway for obvious reasons! The living there thing helps too.
As many mentioned before, Poland used to be a pussy paradise in 2005 - 2010.
Now it is very westernized, last time in spring I saw a lot of cubby girls, tattoos, hipsters, and almost every of the rare pretty girls
were all-into their smartphones, with headphones in their ears.
I know 2 friends of mine who wanted to come at the beginning of the university year (in october) To Szczecin,
but they gave up after they heard how much Poland changed lately
Pussy paradises change and move, and this is natural. If you read the other threads in the Travel section,
you will see that Hungary, Ukraine, Czech Republic and Serbia are still pretty awesome
He has been PM'ing guys trying to get another member banned.
His troll accounts are bashing Poland because he's living in Wroclaw and doesn't want more foreign competition. "Czech Republic is awesome"
He is a fucking idiot. The world is filled with all kind of morons out there. It goes more or less well until he pisses off someone who can get him sniped by a mere phone call.
I'm spending November in Wroclaw or Poznan haven't decided yet, honest question what is the foreigner situation like over there? Can't be as mad as the first tier cities I'd imagine, when I went to Lublin I met like no foreigners and barely overheard anyone speaking English, granted that's a third tier city.
I'll be in Wroclaw in September / October stay for a week or two and see whats going on, I'll do a small write up of what I discover. I love college towns and more importantly college girls fresh out of their small country towns looking for a little excitement in their life.
Take care if you look Middle Eastern. The nationalists are really on edge. I knew something was up after I came back recently because hooligan-looking guys at night are staring at me weird and making comments as they walk by. Tonight three big guys were ready to attack me, asking me if I'm from "Syria." They cooled off when I told them I'm from the States and speaking a bit in my beautifully accented English, but it would be worth staying alert at night by not getting too drunk. Dressing up a bit should help.

As a fellow Middle Eastern looking guy, this is definitely going to be an ongoing problem to deal with throughout Europe in the coming years.
I usually do the same as you and just let the American accent flow for a minute to get other guys to chill out. I'm not really trying to mess around with drunk people who have nothing to lose.
Dressing well also seems to give off a nice "I'm not a damn refugee" look.

I met a black girl once who was beaten up by Polish nationalists in Warsaw. She was hot, tall and educated, but she talked back when they insulted her in public. That was a hot girl - to a man they would have been brutal.
Unfortunately there is a dark side here and I noticed a few more open Nazis out recently - head shaved etc. Anyone speaking good English, being dressed sharp should be fine - also don't stoke the fire.
Poland likely won't have a mass immigration problem anytime soon due to hardly any financial incentives, but some EU immigrants have found that it pays to cash the cheque in France or the UK, but to live in a country like Poland. But those are few and far in between.
As far as being careful - that is always a good tip. I personally don't look Polish, so some guys eye me distrustfully too. Good thing that my German is perfect and I can spout some Hitler gibberish - heh.
Just checked what might be the reason for this new-found interest in immigrants here:
The mass media are blasting pro-immigration reports about floods of Syrian refugees through TV and all the newspapers. I guess the far right is on the lookout for some African immigrants here. They obviously decided to make all the newcomers welcome in Poland.
Actually, Poland received its first refugees from Syria a couple of weeks ago. It was a move from the government to get only Christian Syrian refugees. I was talking to polish friends about that and the funny thing is that nobody knows in which city they are staying. But it seems that refugees want to go to Germany instead of Poland. According to my friends it is because they didn't receive so much benefits here as they could in Germany. But I think the real fact it is because of how they have been stared in the streets.
From the last months Poland received as well many Ukrainians due to the local situation in this country. It is mostly in Warsaw and polish cities in the east but you can notice that, especially in Warsaw. Most of polish people really don't like some of Ukrainians, because of history (Ukrainian nazis doing some slaughter in Poland) and also because most of West part of Ukraine was part of Poland.
Well, that's worrying. I was thinking of going to Krakow later this year. Can any brown/black peeps who've been there recently share info about safety in Krakow? Have any of you been "hassled"?
Vice I'm a brown guy living in Krakow. I've had no problems here at all. The thing about krakow is that I reckon about 33% of it from October onwards is foreign. I've stuck to the central city areas however where it's quite Cosmo. Thanks for the heads up Roosh.
Vice, I was in Sopot in July - so obviously not Krakow, but probably just as touristy, and obviously before the migrant crisis made news - and as another brown guy (albeit athletic, well-dressed, and confident but not arrogant, as this forum awesomely encourages), I also had no problems during the day OR night in Sopot. In fact, the only fight I saw was apparently between a Polish guy and a white American, according to my Polish wing, who talked to the Polish guy after the fight. Not sure what it was about though.

How many African and middle eastern immigrants flooded Poland this month?

There were a lot of foreigners in Sopot this summer?

Not that I could tell nor noticed, relatively speaking to, say, Warsaw. Most of the girls were Polish - usually from Warsaw - though I did encounter a Brit and a German, as I mentioned in my report on the Sopot thread. Also, most of the Polish girls that I managed to get into a conversation asked me what I (an American) was doing there, if that too gives any indication as to how many foreigners visit.
Interesting video about Poland's paramilitary, I don't think it's been shared here before:
It seems that unlike in other EU countries (namely Germany), patriotism and traditional values are deeply ingrained in Polish culture. It is safe to say the decline won't be as bad.
