    If she was a Rose she'd be talking, dancing around and sweeping at the same time...

    Multi-tasking.....:p

    Jaysus, you'd better not ask her opinion on The Rose of Tralee. She'd probably go into overdrive about how much it's all some kind of mysogynistic conspiracy, thought up by dirty oul Kerrymen ;)

    It's a shame that parents can't sit down and agree the best interests of children without involving the Court process.....

    Ok, just put "some" or many" in front of men there. Now is there an issue with some men not respecting women?

    There is a huge issue. Unfortunately though, she didn't say "some" or "many" - she diminished her own arguments by making a sweeping generalisation, thus giving ammunition to the sort of misogynistic idiots who think feminism = "misandry".

    Surely this is irrelevant that she failed to say some or many? Get over it.

    Is there an issue of sexism against women in society? Deal with that.

    Look at the Rose of Tralee contest.

    That Rose of Tralee is really awful :rolleyes:

    Poor Aoibhinn Ní Shúilleabháin and Blathnaid O’ Donoghue, they both took part in the Rose of Tralee and ever since they've been in regular demand for TV, Radio and PR work. It's really terrible :(

    I'm willing to assume that she meant to say "some" or "many" - and that she obviously doesn't genuinely believe that all men don't respect women. But a lot of people (the sort of men who think they're the "real victims" of sexism and who look for any excuse to dismiss feminism as being irrelevant and unnecessary) will have used that sentence as an excuse to dismiss her as a man-hater. The second she said it, the #vinb tag on Twitter lit up with right-wing idiots whining about "that feminist one".

    I suppose I get you, some men have respect for women and that should have been stated.

    That being said, I think it's a minor point in the whole debate. It's an easy tactic for sexist men to dismiss the whole problem, as you say.

    If Operation Sealion had succeeded, then most Irish people would have looked like Diarmuid Ferriter in 1942.

    Also, Harry, I was in Bantry today... A Toy Soldier factory and a few oul boats... is that the best ye can do.. ?

    I think so Harry......It will be all systems go in a couple of weeks anyway....

    At least we have a decent stand-in. I've had enough of the "I could have been a contender for Vinnie's seat"....

    Dermot is in his element tonight...

    It is to instill fear in children, that is how they got away with it for so long.
