It's nothing wrong with being latino. Latino derivates from the Latin word latinus which designates the founder people of the roman republic and the roman empire. Stop being so ignorant and desinformed. Try to be informed and not opinionated. You probably associate "latino" With Latin America like many people thanks to Hollywood. The reason it is called Latin America is because it was colonized by Latin European countries(Portugal, Spain and France) which held one of the greatest empires in history just like their predecessors the Romans. Countries with mother tounges derived from Latin, the language of the Romans and of the Vatican. Prominent and prestigious western european countries.

It's really just a slavic dish, that possibly came from China through the Mongols. In Ukraine and Russia it's called 'vareniki', and is considered a national dish in Ukraine. In my experience the polish ones tend to have thicker dough, and in Ukraine there are more varieties such as strawberry etc. ones, otherwise there isn't a difference.

I don't understand why some people are so upset because of our Central European identity.

It is OUR point of view and OUR identity, not yours. And some of us choose to identify as Central European. So what? Deal with it. Your vision of Europe is not the only one out there and frankly we don't care what feels correct for you. Also, it takes a little bit of knowledge about the history and culture of our region to understand all those fine differences that lay at the base of our ethnic identities. Central and Eastern Europe is not a monolith like so many Westerners view it to be (mostly due to their ignorance about the subject). I personally identify as Polish, Western Slavic, Central European. You may call me Eastern European if you want although, due to our recent history, it would be a social blunder in my opinion.

@@Roman888 both men and women in EE are really good looking. It is simple science, genetics cant work for only one gender. But the Western perception of Russians, Ukrainians, Poles etc. is widely influenced by Hollywood which shows them mostly as some drunks, thugs and low lives. But that speaks mostly about American complexes than the apperance of EE men.

@@PaulV. Aesthetics is not a science. The fact is that different ethnic groups boast certain phenotypic traits which may generally render one gender more empirically attractive than the other. It's reductive to think that physical characteristics will favor or disfavor both genders equally within each ethnic group.

Poland is Slavic, so Eastern

[@MrVasilicus]

5:02- When I was for the first time in Poland, in Krakow, as a romanian used with the latin, romantic language, I heard spoken a fast russian, with snakes words that tells you to shut up: "shht" and I was contraried that czech and slovak people don't understand it. The written language is full of characters the other nations don't use (k, q, z, y, w), which are all pronounced as "ș" (romanian "sh") or "j". But I learned very fast the pronounciation and in the second day in the camp where we were hosted (near Zamek Korzkiew castle - 13 km by Krowodrza Gorka, in Krakow), I was reading erotic / porn poems (without understanding the meaning, just pronounciating correctly) to a 19 years old Polish girl. She was really impressed. ;) After that, when they wanted to tell us about the locations we had to reach or a hard word, the organisers asked me to pronounce their names. They sad that I managed myself perfectly with the porn poetry. :))

There is no q in Polish words. And we use w, because there is no v :)

[@rafalzajac6808]

The witcher Geralt has quite a "Slavic" name, "Slavic" notes can be heard in ono- and toponomics. There is leszy and kikimore - but there is also an Andersen mermaid and a Beast taken from Jeanne-Marie Leprince de Beaumont. It should be repeated once more: the cycle about the witcher is a classic and canonical fantasy, with Slavicness in it, as Wokulski told Starski, as much as poisons in a match.
