Why would people go to European Texas for femboys?
Yeah, maybe it’s because my UI standards are too high to spend any more time than necessary on Discord but I wasn’t aware that this was a thing.
Are Polish femboys actually a Discord meme or was that just a random social media choice?
They’re a meme beyond discord as well, but not hugely mainstream, existing in a similar space to mentions of Ohio in a positive light. Just more Gen-Z ironic humor.
It’s a take on “doth protest too much.” Because Poland is super conservative, therefore secretly specialized in femboys.
There are definitely alt right femboys though.
tread harder daddy 😩💦
It is for sure a… fascinating combo, given the context.
These are all good questions. I don’t use discord, I wasn’t aware that this could be a thing either. My impressions of Poland come from other places…
Everybody knows you go to Thailand for femboys.
*Slovenia
Ahem, it’s ladyboys over there.
“Stu you loved it, you were crying saying how special it was. I had to slow down so I didn’t drop my load too quick.”
Emphasis on boys
Can someone explain this? Why were people expecting “femboys” in Poland, and what does Discord have to do with any of it?
Discord could actually be replaced with any mainstream social media platform. Few weeks ago I’ve seen a lot of memes that took air pollution map of Europe and labeled it: “Femboys heat map” or something like that. Poland is usually almost entirely red since air pollution in that country is sometimes literally highest in the world. How are polish people still alive? Well it only happnes during coldest days in winter. As for why that happens? I don’t know. UK used to have similar problem and other countries as well but now only Poland is so bad. You could say because people are poor and they burn whatever they have to keep warm in winter but that can’t be the case. If you look at GDP map of Europe there are more counties that have lower GDP and don’t have that problem.
Poland uses coal to produce most of their electricity, unlike the rest of Europe. They don’t have a lot of coast for wind, they are northern and don’t get much sun for solar, they don’t have nuclear plants, and they were avoiding Russian gas for ages. Plus they have had right-wing governments for ages, who don’t care about pollution or global warming.
Also there is a lot of smaller mountains in poland that often surround big towns and trap polluted air there
After what they did in the oder, I would add that they just don’t care
Coal power plants have very little to do in overall pollution though. Electricity is something you need all year and from what I’ve seen in summer air is clean in entire Europe, there are no exceptions. As for gas I haven’t looked much into that but I remember reading a news story that said Poland was depending on Russian gas until war in Ukraine started. Now they import gas via sea.
[Edit] - small clarification since people downvote this to oblivion. I’m not saying that coal power plants are ok or anything. I’m just saying that most of that pollution is coming from other places.
As for proof: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_in_Europe
According to this table Germany produces twice as much energy as Poland from fossil fuels. How is that Germany has relatively clean air?

Boy do I have bad news for you.
Then how is that Germany is producing twice the energy from fossil fuels than Poland and they still have relatively clean air? Source: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_in_Europe
Among others, Poland runs one of the biggest, dirtiest, least efficient coal plants in the world. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bełchatów_Power_Station
The plant releases more carbon dioxide each year than the entirety of Switzerland.
I haven’t the slightest clue? Some sort of filter lol?
Could it be that air moves in what is commonly called as wind?
the reason why air pollution gets worse during the winter is that cold air is denser and moves slower than warm air, which traps the pollution for longer in one spot. this problem is especially prominent in cities and valleys, and if your city is in a valley?- Well there’s a reason why shops here sell masks during the winter, nobody wears them, but hey it’s an option i guess
The… I… What? Why would you just make shit up? Or have you been fooled to believe this?
The main problem is too much reliance on coal power plants.
If that was the case why in summer there is no such pollution? As far as I know electricity usage is increasing in summer due to air conditioning.
A/C in homes is not as popular in Poland as it is in the US
While I can’t find any relevant statistics I’m sure you’re right. But still, I’ve been in few different countries in Europe and AC isn’t as rare as some might think and I think everyone has a fridge that also has to work extra hard during summer. Compare that to winter, what takes most of the energy? Electric heaters? Doubt many people use that, electricity in Europe is just too expensive. Whatever the case it’s a fact that air is most polluted in winter during the highest cold.
To my knowledge AC in places north of italy is basically nonexistent in private homes. Mediterranean countries do often have it though. Poland certainly doesn’t commonly.
Fridges don’t even remotely compare to AC in power consumption, and inside temperature doesn’t differ as much as outside temperature in summer vs. winter because in winter the inside gets heated, and in summer insulation still keeps it below outside temps usually.
There are no acs in Europe.
It’s because the USSR used to outsource a lot of their dirtiest industry to Poland, and now the EU do it
Bro, the USSR stopped influencing Poland 40 years ago, please don’t blame the failures of your shitty rightoid government on a country that’s been dead for fucking decades
I’m blaming Germany, actually. Keep up.
Dude Ukrainians used to steal 2 cars in Germany. 1 for them and 1 because they have to go through Poland.
It can vary from place to place…
America too!
Major cities: gay clubs. Rainbow streets. Tolerance.
Outside those cities: Straight Pride. Nazi signs. Nooses.
Were they at least femboy skinheads?
Idk about the origin of the meme but I can confirm that I know several Polish femboys through European gaming discord servers
For a moment there I thought that was from this music video
'tis from Deca-Dence anime. Pretty cool, but also weird. They have tic-tacs.
Ohh, that actually looks like it might be worth watching. I got fed up with anime and all its tropes - particularly everything being set in high school.
It’s not the best show you’ll ever see, but it’s pretty good. There’s a twist at the end of the second episode that people either love or hate. I recommend it, mainly because it’s an anime that doesn’t sexualize minors
Yup, I thought the same thing.
Usually I do not like Japanimation. But this video is great!
Salvatore Ganacci is a don! Watching this time I only just noticed his shoe car in the background on top of one of the buildings.

Uh what
Holy shit is that a Deca-dence meme? Neat
Anime, bad post
