POLISH HOMOPHOBIA
The inherent and inalienable dignity of the person shall constitute a source of freedoms and rights of persons and citizens. It shall be inviolable. The respect and protection thereof shall be the obligation of public authorities.
Polish LGBT community is increasingly coming out of hiding. Accompanying unpleasant, and sometimes blood-curdling events put a lot of question marks. Living in a democratic country, doesn’t mean fully understood the word freedom. Is tolerance in Poland is just another empty pre-election password?
The problem of homophobia in Poland is evolving. For a certain part of the population is constantly homosexuality is treated as a deviation, or worse, as a mental illness. Although in 1990 the World Health Organization removed homosexuality from the list of mental disorders.Do something since then has changed in our society? Well, no. After entering the password "treatment of homosexuality" in one of the popular search appeared 22.600 entries. I have only two controversial conclusions. How can you treat something that is not a mental illness?Conclusions can be drawn themselves.
Last week, in the Chancellery of the Parliament was not without its "small" slip-up. National Programme for the Treatment of Homophobia might be a good idea of the SLD, had not turned out that it was to be the National Programme for the Treatment o Hemophilia .Well, as you can see in our country doesn’t stand out any significant difference between homophobia and hemophilia. Even a decent program to combat prejudices against sexual minorities would be here on the spot. Perhaps the Teletubbies will could feel to peacefully:)
On Saturday in Kraków was the Equality March. Attended a few people, only 400, although according to previous estimates of the organizers expected a thousand representatives of the LGBTQ. What was the reason for such a low turnout? "Friendly" against demonstration organized by supporters of the Ruch Odrodzenia Polski.
As a result of the actions of uniformed forces, popularly known as the police were injured only, or up to three people. Not without the use of tear gas, or loved since People’s Republic of Poland clubs and a helicopter, which monitored the situation.
According to the "tradition" toward LGBTQ directed were slurs, which are not worthy to be found here. The biggest breakthrough is the lack of flying bottles, stones and firecrackers as befits Poland.
Polish society isn’t ready yet to change. Inability to found the positive role models from the West emphasize ours inability to accept what we don’t know better.
Perhaps over time take over new models from Europe and the United States, although it will be difficult and lengthy process.

This is my article. First paragraph this is my constitution. All text in Polish sounds another. Sorry, but I put it to Google Translator because translate is too hard for me now. I feel so sick by it, but I correctly a few mistakes. If you don't understand- you can ask me
Re: My articles
Wow, that was seriously good. I'm a bit offended by the whole 'inability to find positive role models in the west,' but otherwise this is a great article, Natt!! I like it!

Re: My articles
Great article Natt! It's sad to hear how far the LGBTQ has get to come in Poland but I actually find that sentence "Inability to found the positive role models from the West emphasize ours inability to accept what we don’t know better." really spot on. The U.S. is a country founded on the belief of 'Equality for All' and it refuses to give all it's citizens equal rights, so I don't think we're a positive example. Many states only repealed sodomy laws within the last 10 years, we have a long way to go.
Re: My articles
That was really good, Natt. It's good there's some improvement for the march with less things being thrown, but it does seem like it's taking a lot of time for progress everywhere. :/
I also agree that there is no good role model in the west, at least that I can think of right now. Like..just the other day in the US, NY state voted to approve gay marriage [finally] but if they travel out of the state, it's not recognized in most states. There are now six states [not including the country's capital which does recognize it but isn't a state] out of fifty that allow same-sex marriage, but it's not recognized by the federal government.

Be Butterfly!
[center]
Mythical images saturated harmful content attacking us at every step. Perfectionism become a dangerous tool in our hands. Striving to goals turns into a habit which ultimately ends in death.
What is canon of beauty in today’s world? Evolved over space of the centuries changed his face. Ideals were unstable and different. Currently, under the influence of the media turned into an artificial and unnatural creations Photopshop, for whom follow young people. No ability to distinguish fiction from the truth leads them to self-destruction.I can’t drink
I can’t eat
I wanna be thin
I can’t drink
I can’t eat
Be think, I wanna it
I can’t drink
I can’t eat
I wanna wear this pants
I can’t drink
I can’t eat
I prefer vomit than eat!
O.N.A. -Szpetot (Song in Polish)
Aware of anorexia
Millions of diets, counting calories, tablets, teas of laxatives to draw your hand. Fear doesn’t exist. Freedom. Lightness. Ambitions. Weight loss. PURPOSE.
Sticking out bones, falling out hair, sunken stomach like from picture of concentration camps. EFFECT.
Hours of exercise. A heart attack. Hospital. Morgue. END
Are you ready for more?
Internet- invention, which has advantages and disadvantages given us another controversy, which Whiting for our health. This “beast” is commonly called „pro ana”. What i sit? Nothing else like pro anorexia.
Desire to live in anorexia sounds so surreal. In what situation may be that go to this? If suffering can give pleasure? Or perhaps it’s an escape from problems?
Victims falling into the sinister trap of this disease are often talented persons who to lose themselves in surrounding their reality. Don’t ingnore the majority for the “aware of anorexia” is the best way to lose extra kilos. Not wanting met to be “butterfly” rarely has a good ending.Ana is your best friend- she gives you the opportunity to be beautiful and happy!
Often the first contact with behavior “pro ana” isn’t noticeable. Intention to lose weight is praised by family and friends. Looking at programs fighting with obesity, which reach into schools or homes, you can suggest that they give a signal to the community about the need to be slim.
Butterflies aren’t understood by the surrounding people and escape to the virtual world. Be creating there own communities contribute to the development problem. With ease building many forums, blogs, which describe their the struggle with the alleged “obesity” and inspire each other.
Thinspirations, which means no less than the inspiration to be thin are the biggest motivation to fight with itself. Millions of images of emaciated models, actress, singers add strong. Movies, books and music, in which is theme eating disorder are driving the spirals. Commandments, the Decalogue anorexics create an atmosphere of being in sect, Loss control over their loves becomes another element of this horrible disease.
Consequence of the dire to lose weight from all price are varied. Often end up staying in the hospital, where thanking help persons can get back to health. But we can’t forget that butterfly will always remain there. In the end of the game called “pro ana” ends is death. Time can’t be back.
Pro ana in Poland is still a tabor subject. The government doesn’t create any projects aimed at reducing the level of the problem. Leaving without future control butterflies on the Internet can makes result in degradation of the ideas beauty. Already by eating disorders in our country die more people than by designer drugs with whom so brave fought Premier. The only real way out of this problem should be removed from the network all parties calling pro ana. In the West this method has already been used. Now Poland should follows this idea that take care about health our children and future generations.
This is my new article. Tommorow I'll translate my point of views... for me this is weird what I wrote.. I tried wrote it what now I feel about pro ana

Last Article: MODERN MESSENGERS OF HOPE
MODERN MESSENGERS OF HOPE
The music industry reminds me battlefield. For artists which want to reach success waiting many surprises. Part of their chooses it the simplest way to fame. They building images thanks scandals. But they forgetting that everything goes by. The interest of media will not be take long and on their position wait thousand candidates.
Over them thanks hard work growing this true which knowing what’s really dignity and respect for each other. You will not see their on the gossip magazines cover. For their creating music and contact with fans it synonym of art.
National music industry is like Roller Coaster. Every next day brings something new. But, if among commercialism flooding Polish music we will find true artists? Which music will be touching us? It will not be too easy.
“Don't Be Afraid To Change For Better”
How sounds today’s music in Poland? Sometimes I think too long about it and I don’t know what I have to answer. The range from “Koko Koko Euro Spoko” by Jarzębina to Monika’s Brodka “Varsovie”. It two opposed poles. Although, I have hope that soon we will be the witness of births next musicians which will decide to create on Brodka scale.
Music is reflection our soul. The type of song which we listening showing us state of the mind. In hard moments we searching something positive, what will be make us strong. After analyzed, I interested one national group called WWO.
The classic of the Polish rap adding thousands as not a millions positive emotions in every their piece. These rappers are Polish messengers of hope. Standing high cross-beam, ambitions and faith in it what they create and strength to sharing key values in today’s world. Their life, world flowing from heart and changing Polish teenager’s life. I can so short described this group.
“We're gonna make it”(“Damy Radę”) or ““Don't Be Afraid To Change For Better”(“Nie Bój Się Zmiany Na Lepsze” ) it’s motivation to fight. Lyrics describing sadness reality and hope for better future, this is real sensation. Consider exhibition our defects and advantages it’s something more than random hip-hop, this is real message created by us. Every your step, movement or even thought you can find there.
“Don’t Bring Me Flowers In The Morning”
Did you thought about messages in English songs? Some of us only assemble attention over sound. What’s not good solution. In some sense no one should ignore hard work persons which created this art.
Kerli, singer born in Elva(Estonia) thanks determination realizes dreams. Although she recognized the worse side of life, she didn’t give up. Right now she lives in Los Angeles and creates fascinated music and doesn’t forget about contact with fans. She shares in songs her life, feelings, autobiographical parts of life and it standing her to similar situations which are her fans.
From what you associated an army? Maybe with brutality or blood on war? But Kerli’s single “Army Of Love ” shows different kind of army. Song emitting the most beautiful feelings and showing the way in which everyone should to go. And so much showing that we can’t forget that love is the most beautiful on the world.
Brutality and fear in one. Anxiety about better future. All this pushes after listened “SuperGirl”. Kerli assumes her mother’s body trying to signal the problem of domestic violence. She shows how hard road must to goes the victim. Decision about parting isn’t easy but changing all life. And these events will make us stronger persons.
"Triumh Over Sadness"
Being teenager it’s so hard time in life. In this age we look one the world from different perspective. Emotional sphere and sense of own value are so fragile that with easiness we can to hurt young person. Fear is the worst friend of the pain. Understanding and support become the biggest need. But where we have look their?
Against to the troubles existence goes Outcast Youth. It’s rap flowing from England which opening minds for it what really happens around us. Reality, emotions and truth..t his is more than music.
Eating Disorders are big problem in our country. Last statistic says that about 25% girls in secondary school(13-16 years)is on diet. Following “imaginary” models of beauty is deadly. Unfortunately still this is theme of taboo.
Outcast Youth in “Genevieve” shows girl which fell in ruthless trap of disease. Thanks deep words in song we are transferred to her world. Lies, pain or fear become her second name. With new every verse we go to her life with feeling of powerless. But ever on the end is hope that someone can to help through us this hard time.
Self-harm isn’t answer from problems but for many persons is escape from bad experiences. Smoke protection works only short time, but pain will be back. We never are sure what can to happened. We shouldn’t give up, only show that we have strength to go out from every situations without hurt body and people around us.
“A million eyes” touches feelings connected with this problem. Song is amazing way to builds belif and showing better part of the life. And what’s the most that we can’t forget about hope.
Music is the best antidote for every problem Songs are part of our life. Victories, losses, death or births are element of life. Although every song has another message, it true and modern messengers of hope should to be more appreciated in today’s world.
