Are too many young Irish women a bit on the haughty side?

dttq

Considering that previous generations of Irish women (my mothers and grandmothers generations) were so down to earth and humble. My granny and women of this era, many seem to be salt of the earth. And yet I find so many young Irish women to be haughty, standoffish and stuck up. What is up with this, and why are so many young Irish women these days like this, considering previous generations of Irish women were the polar opposite. And yes, I find women from other countries a lot more approachable, and less uppity.

Oooh yay, a thread about Irish women being stuck up.

Never ever seen one of these here before...

Surely this must be a parody thread, to see one of the most frequently and inarticulately-asked questions on After Hours put so baldly.

In case you're being serious OP, you're just completely wrong. I'll leave it at that. I don't intend to get sucked into any nonsense.

In the before uppity snobby haughty Irish gals. . . . . .

There's a thread about this every few weeks - mostly because there's a hint, just a hint, of truth in it. We're still casting off the shackles of being a hugely Catholic society and men and women interact strangely towards one another. A man who approaches a group of women is usually seen as a weirdo by females and most new relationships begin from a really, really drunken night out between friends.

No need for the broad brush.

My theory: the women here realize the Irish men aren't as good as women from other country think (because they watched PS I Love You) and they've realized we're absolute shíte.

So yeah, foreign girls are better. They're still confused and think we're actually good men.

Nah, very few I've met I'd describe as haughty.

According to the many, many women haters that seem to infest boards, they are not only just haughty but fat/ugly/hairy/loose/frigid/after money and so on.

What is it about female gender that frightens and enrages you so?

To be fair, Irish men are the best on the planet. If a man can't get sarcasm, he ain't the man for me!

it all went wrong when we gave them the vote

They're only haughty 'cos they're not drunk enough yet. Wander down the jacks, have a good puke, get a burger for yourself to fill the gap and Romeo will meet Juliet.

Saying all women in this country are stuck up would be a broad brush/ untruth and narrow minded. I excluded older generations of women, and said some younger women are that way.

How very dare you. Irish women are not one bit naughty, they are all angels dropped down to slum it for a while.

Have you ever considered the fact that it might be you, OP?
