Some Irish women

Bazgina

I agree it wasnt a nice thing to do to the guy, but peopl get drunk , dont think blah blah.... it happens both ways though to be fair ya know its not just irish women- guys and girls all over the fecking planet do it !

I was out one night and one off my mates was slighty tipsy decided that one guy looked good for me to shift (trying to be a good friend I suppose even though I wasnt looking for la shift at the time busy trying to get a drink at the bar )... he whispered to him pointing at me... I wasnt paying attention but then I heard the guy say "she isnt that great".

I walked away , my self estem wouldnt be the highest but I figured it happens .... I mean like people are tispy... dont think of the other persons feelings... thats the last thing on their mind usually.... hah.
The poor guy in my eyes ... I didnt ask my mate to go over and say that to him .... I ll admit my estem took a hit ,( that guy judged me without me even looking at him) but its a club and its bound to be messy. Sometimes they dont even mean to be harsh....just the connection to the brain and mouth doesnt function.

maybe its a bit of a different situation compared to the guys....but moral of story happens to everyone. Tall skinny, small , blonde... redhead... brunttee no fake tan, orange... guy ,, girl... **** happens.... haha :P

OP

Quick question

Did you score?

The other side of the coin is there is absolute idiot men going out these times pestering women. However the cock blocker will step in regardless of whether even Bressie is chatting up their friend or not (probably especially when Bressie is there)

What a ridiculous thing to say!

The girl in the OP sounds pretty rude, but the OP himself was well out of order and sounds much nastier than the girl.

I find it kind of hilarious that the OP specifies "Irish women" as the sole offenders of this behaviour. Some guys on AH seem to have this idealistic view of foreign women; like not only are they ALL super hot, they're also super nice.
You seriously think it's only Irish girls who occasionally 'rescue' their friends from mingers in clubs?
Some have claimed it's jealousy. Perhaps for some girls, but in my experience, this jealous behaviour doesn't really happen all that much. Except for the odd annoying girl who won't tolerate being left "by herself".

HOWEVER, I would never behave in the manner this girl did, and don't agree with it. I have seen girls go over to the 'couple', sticking their fingers down their throats, making gagging noises, etc. I mean, ffs, the guy has feelings too.
Don't agree with what the OP did though either, was pretty childish and very mean. When it comes down to it, this was a NIGHTCLUB, being judged and 'picked' for your appearance is all part of the 'game'. It was pretty ridiculous him getting all precious on behalf of his mate.

I hear these complaints quite a bit, is it generalising if there's quite a few lads saying it?

Oh it does happen for sure (in certain establishments, among younger age groups). It's just the "Irish women" tag - if you're an Irish woman you're very likely to feel defensive. I know the person starting the thread says "some Irish women" but the phenomenon being referred to is not just Irish.

You get a good few women saying the same of Irish lads in fairness.

Not on Boards. If there's the same amount of attacks on Irish men as on Irish women, I haven't seen them.

Leonidas, the girl seems like a right **** but you shouldn't have stooped to her level.

There's great irony too in the way some lads are so objectionable to the behaviour of Irish women, yet boast about fairly bitchy behaviour themselves (insulting women over their looks, making fun of pals who've had sex with girls who aren't lookers, the chips thing - from a mod) - ye de mennnn!

The problem is that I (and many of my friends) have been insulted by and harmed by men (unprovoked) on nights out, but you don't see me starting threads where I generalise all men based on the actions of a few.

You won't see many at all (if any) similar man-bashing threads in AH.

For a nation of women who seem to do nothing but ridicule and look down on Irish men, there doesn't seem to be very many of them around here....

Agreed.
For instance, there's not one occasion where I've been in a club and a guy hasn't grabbed my a$s. Seriously. They do it in passing. If it's crowded, they'll just brush by, and nonchalantly grab the a$s! This happens to pretty much all girls, it's just something you deal with. On this token, I guess it's OK for me/us to label all "Irish men" perverts and sexual harassers. I get that women do this also (ass grabbing!), but come on. There are certain things that "just happen" in clubs, which you either have to laugh at/brush off, or just don't go to a club in the first place.

Also, there's a serious amount of irony going on in the thread (as has already been pointed out). Guys crying over how they're being mistreated by the mean, superficial Irish girls, but at the same time, talking about "fat chicks" and "butterfaces" or whatever. Saying that, the attitudes towards Irish women that you commonly see in AH, aren't (imo) anything like 'real life'.

Certain girls do have an inferiority complex. The truth hurts so they resort to acting like a pseudo two piece hood when confronted. Very unbecoming of a lady imo.

Some Irish girls really are up their own ass. I was in a pub with my girlfriend when a girl standing at the bar beside us dropped her purse on the floor. I picked it up, tapped her on the shoulder and said "excuse me," so I could give it back to her. She glanced around for a second, let out a sigh, and without making eye contact said she had a boyfriend. I said fine maybe he'll pick up your purse for you then and I threw it at her feet.

Girls you're not in "sex and the city" cop the fcuk on!

I think you can set it to search chronologically. And is that recent thread really putting down Irish men?

This one solitary girl was a dïckhead. As has been pointed out in this thread before, please don't tar us all with the same brush. We're not all like that.

I kinda agree with both sides of story I mean you do see some girls on night out have seen this with my own male friends and they can be stuck up. But I also think for some lads if you say your not interested for whatever reason boyfriend or what they just turn calling you all sorts. Happened to me and my friend the last night I was talking to this guy and his friend went up talking to my friend who has a boyfriend she simply told him nothing bad. The the guy just turns on us calling us all sorts. I think some young guys these days just want sex and that's it.

Carlos Ray, and the sheep who have given you the thumbs up, she was an asshole. What was specifically Irish about her behaviour though?

I actually feel I sorry for the men of Ireland because God only knows how they put up with years of trying to mount us despite our 3 legs and multiple deformities(whiteness being the major drawback if you discount the temporal horns)

Some men are d1cks and some women are too. Its a fact of life just plan your game around it! When I was younger I got around the friend by pointing at some randomer the other side of the club and saying he fancies you!

It's not that that people have a problem with, it's the bitchy way they go about it. She could've just explained she wanted to talk to her friend, took her to the bathroom etc. No need to insult the poor guy, I know a friend of mine(who strangely enough is actually very good looking) has very low self-esteem and this kind of thing absolutely would absolutely destroy his confidence. And I see it happen all the time. Again though it's not exclusive to Irish women. Some people are just dicks.

Actually Im not bad looking (Im not being arogant just told it a lot) but when I was younger my self esteem wouldnt have been the highest untill I got older.

Was in a club there recently and a mate of mine was kind of slow dancing with this girl he liked in the corner, then one of her mates comes over all of a sudden & points as if she was gonna sick at the thought of her getting with him. Your one wasnt long in pissing off after this. Felt a bit bad for my mate.

This one's friend is typical of the type of up your own arse Irish lass u see regularly in clubs, bottle blond hair, fake tan to the max, and shorts that werent far off hotpants.
So music went off, went up to her told her I didnt think she was good looking at all and low and below, the lunatic lets out a scream as I was walking off, starts shouting after me, accusing me of all sorts, saying she knows she's not good looking but makes an effort unlike me, etc., etc. One of her fat female friends then proceeds to come over to me as to try and hit me a slap. How ****ing nuts are some Irish women, can give it but as soon as u give it back to them they lose the rag completely

She was probably on the rag.

It's a dubious claim anytime I hear this, because it's the last thing you want to say to some-one you just met.

"I have a boyfriend" is like saying:

"I have a savings account worth 20,000 EUR in a safe deposit box in Prague"

You just don't get over-the-top personal with anyone you just met in a bar.

It shows a serious lack of street knowledge when a girl tells a guy she's with some-one, IMHO.

So when you hear such a phrase, indulge their naive, innocent ways and start asking them:

"Is he good for you"
"Does he make you breakfast"

The usual response is a scouly-look. All of a sudden the stunner becomes ugly on the inside, and thus appears ugly on the outside too, and you come out of the experience a better man.

What can only be described as the 'herd mentality' of certain Irish women is something to behold.

Lets take an example,
4 girls in a group hanging in some part of the pub. A guy goes over to one he fancies. Stars chatting, chancing his arm, what not. Whilst doing so, the other members of the group are giving him dirty looks and non-verbal gestures to the girl in conversation that this guy is a "loser". Que girl being cold. Dude leaves.

This is generally found alot with younger girls. But can be found with women of all ages too.

I think the reason the above girls wouldn't be too pleased is because it's quite rude to go up and interrupt a group mid conversation if you don't know them.

So what you are saying is that every woman(girl) who refuses a male approach is a cnut?
Maybe he was a loser?
If a 23 stone girl with a tache came onto you don't tell me your mates wouldn't rip the piss?!

Something smells of being too well connected. Too much sitting in their PJs eating Sultana and Chocolate Digestives watching "Loose Women" at 2PM on a Tuesday having a "Girly chat".

Us men can't afford the luxury of discussing every aspect of a Woman's "real needs and emotional requirements"

We're just looking for the ride

Jesus if she didn't get with your friend she didn't get with your friend. Maybe he wasn't her type, maybe she told her friend to make sure she doesn't pull a loser or go on the rebound tonight (v common) maybe she had a boyfriend/girlfriend or maybe she didn't like him.

Obviously she didn't if she so easily walked away!? There was no need for you to say those things. Getting angry over a cock block is pretty desperate. It was clearly just a one night shot for him so just carry on playing your game when that happens
