Do Polish people have big noses?

I would say that the majority of the Slavic people have big noses. Not long noses, but big.

Most Germanic people have thinner noses. No question about that.

I don't see anything wrong with having a big nose though. I like my big thick nose.

Polish people are one of the first and the original people of Europe and were there for at least 40,000 years. They have adapted to the cold climate and to at least one Ice Age. Polish nose is big and meaty one with enough of blood weasels to warm air before it heats lungs. It is very different from a Semitic (Arab, Jewish) nose that is narrow, long and straight, with the only very end bend, to prevent desert dust entry to the lungs. Has anyone seen Neanderthal nose or Cro-Magnon nose, they are huge! Polish nose is nothing in comparison.
Just to cheer you up Polish guys with big noses - Polish nose has a very well defined bridge and is identical to Roman noses, it gives you prominence and character. Look at Cicero!!!!!!!!

Slavic nose is a very complicated issue.There are so many variations on a basic formula that it is almost impossible to analyze everyone.It is not simply a big or a small nose.A lot of parameters as its relationship to forehead size,the relationship of its width to height,its distance from lips and a lot more that matter as well.Anyway slavic nose is generally attractive and adds to the general sweetness of slavic beauties.
I find it kind of self assuring that people are occupied with polish baldness and polish noses etc instead of recognizing the generally superior appearance of slavic people.

Couldn’t agree more.

big nose for free air

if it helps, ive kinda noticed that poles have different shaped noses to the english, but i think it rocks, everyone looks nice in their own way evern if they have a bigger nose than others. sorry if i insult anyone!

Jooma:

Ok, first off, this has to be the silliest thread I've run across in a long time. ;-)

Second off, nothing for us to be cheered up about. Now how do I say this without being offensive? There is a certain position in sex that is named after a number between 68 and 70. In this position, a male with a "Polish nose" beats every other male on the planet, since he can do two things "down there" at once. Just ask my wife, she loves my "Polish nose". So I don't need to be cheered up, I wouldn't trade this nose for anything in the world :-)

I'm Polish and don't have a big nose......But I know some people who say this as a quote:

What did GOD say to Moses? and one would say something about the ten commandments.....Well NO!!

What did GOD say to Moses? "That all Jews should have big noses. Polish Jews have big noses".
When I told someone at a party I was Polish.....That ignorant person said......"OH!! so your Jewish".........Why is it people get off thinking all Polish people are jewish. Same as all Polish people have big noses. Well I certainly don't have a large nose or my ancestors.
GET A LIFE.......or a PLASTIC SURGEON.

Something comical to lighten things up. Kichol (pronouned keyhole) is the Polish for big nose. I had to teach the word keyhole in class and all my students found it hilarious.

Yes, noses are a very complicated issue....

I think most Euro nations are known for having big noses (ie French, Italian etc.).

A few of my dad's friends have huge noses, but I don't know too many Polish people with really big noses.
*I have a small nose* :)

Polish people have noses associated with the genes that run in the family ,not the nation they were born, hold your head high and be proud that you are part of a very hard working people who have fought hard to be free!!!!!!!!!!~rinny

"It's a debate Jim, but not as we know it"

Actually, most Polish people tend to have thin noses from my experience. sometimes they're long.

I disagree that Germans have thinner noses. A lot of them are towards the bulbous end, and they often start lower on the face with a larger angle. Looks like a shoe or a slipper.

yes...

Most Polish people like most Human Beings have all sorts of noses, big ones, small ones, wide ones, thin ones..............wtf is this thread about. Polish people are Europeans. Get a grip folks, you see a few Polish people and suddenly you're experts on Polish people's noses.......now what do we think of British people's noses then ????????????

Agree.




Very well said rinny !

Actually slavic and aryan nose tends to be small.(There are exceptions but there are causes for that).
What is definitely longer are the semitic noses.They are common in Jews,Armenians and have influenced the shape of noses of mediteranean people.Nazis in Germany used with accurate results the method of measuring the nose index to spot the persons of semitic origin(Jews) who tried to pass out as Germans.The method proved simple and almost flawless.
There is no method to spot the slavic nose by measuring only nose index.You need more parameters to define it.Also nose on some Poles may look longer due to certain slavic features of splachnic cranium.Had they different facial characteristics,the same nose would look symmetric or even small.
In mediteranean countries slavic nose is interpreted as small nose and used as a rouch sign to identify possible slavic origin(in contrast to native bigger meditaranean nose due to semitic(aka arabic) local influence.

absolutely brilliant - with such logic you have got to be polish!

are you the proud owner of an over sized nose per chance?

Yes indeedy :) Isn't it just !



So what! Better than a British mans logic anyday !



Huh ! A good old Roman nose is that what you mean, lol ?

so tell me mr big nose person, do you have an oversized honk because you are polish or because you have polish genes?

If you are referring to me Mr.BubbaWoo, then I do not have a big nose at all :) I cannot speak for Rinny, indeedy I do not know who Rinny is ? So maybe you should ask them dirctly too.

What's the difference between being Polish and having Polish
genes ?

Do you have a big nose Mr.Bubbawoo ?

metaphorically speaking my nose is huge

edit

actually you werent, were you

No it was not me ! It was the poster Rinny. I just merely agreed :)

So you will have to ask Rinny that question. Dunno who that poster is. I expect a lot of British people have big Roman noses too, don't ya think lol :)

Hahahahaha !

youre quite right, its obviously prudent to reread what has been said ;-)

As ridicules it may sound for you Bubba, you can consider yourself Polish and not exactly be the owner of "polish genes" at the same time. For example, after the end of WWII Polish eastern frontier has been shifted more to the west and few millions people made their exodus from their home land which suddenly became part of Ukraine, Lithuania or Belarus to the new established Poland. Many of them were polonaized Lithuanians, Tartars, Belarusian’s or Ukrainians. They were called "zza Buga" (Poles from beyond the Bug river). So, you don't have to have Polish genes to be polish. You can have Armenian genes for example, as myself, and still consider yourself Polish.

i know. you can consider yourself polish never having been to the country or speaking a word of the language. indeed, i have met people who consider themselves polish and are not even entirely sure what their polish name is.

so, we are left to debate whether it is the polish gene responsible for the oversized honk or some other strain of genetics that has infultrated its way in to the polish blood line.

of course, the obvious one is jewish.

do you think many large nozled people who consider themselves 100% polish are actually of jewish decent?

I know what you think about 2+ generation Americans who consider themselves Poles. Still I'm talking about all those Wrocław or Szczecin inhabitants who speak fluently polish but don't have to necessarily have polish blood in their veins.

As for the Polish honk, who am I to argue. I will live it to people who are more concerned with this fact. Still, I have many friend with names as Poznański, Weiss, Bluma, etc, so the Jewish gene could be responsible for this bane. Another reason fro my Polish anti-semitism. ;)

i know what you are saying Maty, and dont know the answer. there is a gene that seems to produce a very distinct nose aparent amongst many in poland. where this gene originates i can only speculate. with a bit of luck, some clever person will tell us what we want to know

Keyholes galore ;)
