No girls in poland undergo circumcision, and it’s VERY VERY rare that a boy does. Our toilet paper is also exactly the same stuff as used everywhere else in the world.

That’s odd. Where does that info about circumcision come from? I think that most of Poles don’t even know that there is something like female circumcision. I’ve heard that it happens somewhere in Sub-Saharan Africa, but in Europe?!?

“There is only one desert (the Bledow Desert) in Poland.” Why do you think it´s a strange? It´s normal, that we have NO desert in central Europe. Isn´t this an american page? They really think, that Poland is placed in the central Africa :-)
