Slut shaming men is fine but don't dare do it to a woman.

    But bad mistakes, he's made a few.

    Ah man. I loved Wham.

    Any woman pulling this crap would be torn to shreds by court of public opinion, just like he has been.

    This has nothing to do with gender, and everything to do with the fact that we consider marital infidelity to be a bad thing.

    Ok. Would you put him in the same boat as Larry Murphy or Fred West?

    No? Why would I?

    I wouldn't consider his behaviour as scumbaggery as larry murphy or fred west who are scumbags. You have defined this mans behaviour a scumbag in your opiinion so he must be a scumbag.

    If there is a thing that's a lot worse than what he did it is what the person did trying to 'out' him. What a petty small minded busy body they must be.

    As for the Indo it seems how low can you go these days.

    Oh dear - not all scumbags are rapists and child killers, its not a one to one relationship. Did you believe all scumbags were child killers/murders ? That's a bit mad.

    No but i dont believe an adulterer is a scumbag either though.

    He's a scumbag now?

    Scumbag of the worst kind
    Who says he has a small baby ?? That's a massive presumption just because people have seen a Moses basket in the photo. In my experience Moses baskets serve more time as clothes horses than baby holders !!

    I did put (it appears) in the sentence because all we know is that there is a moses basket in the photo. In my experience a small baby goes in a moses basket. When baby grows out of it, it goes in the attic. It would be quite unusual to find a moses basket that's not in storage unless there is a small baby. I don't know for a fact that there is a small baby so I said (it appears)

    Scumbag? The man could be a very good father for all we know and has made a massive mistake. Maybe he and his wife are having issues? Maybe this is a total stitch up. Seems a bit to perfect of a fit tbh for busy body feminist prudes to get a hold of this. Im calling BS on this.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,705 ✭✭✭Nermal


    A short step from this to revenge porn or blackmail. I don't know what the Indo are thinking.

    Did you ever hear someone say "you are a lying, cheating, scumbag"?

    That's exactly what a scumbag is lying & cheating

    Being a good father has nothing to do with it. That just means that you are a good father. The General was a great father as was John Gilligan. What's that got to do with anything?

    He's a crap husband. Do you think he'll sort out said issues by going on tinder or will that make things worse?

    If his marriage has broken up then there is no need for secrecy. He's trying to hide this from his wife. That's cheating and lying.

    If that was me I'd be dancing right about now and straight to a solicitors in the morning to look into suing every single media outlet that posted the image, doesn't matter that his identity is not revealed.

    I'd say Tinder also have leave to sue as I doubt they okay'd the use of the image.

    Almost sure he'd have no case. How would he?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,174 ✭✭✭screamer


    If he put himself out there...he's fair game. Slut shaming? More like calling him out for the idiot he is.....

    People have been posting screenshots of Tinder bios for the purpose ridicule for years and yet, I've not come across any lawsuits.

    He put himself on a public forum. The papers offered no more information than he made public himself. The only person he could sue is himself as he's the idiot that put the information out there

    Ah get away with yourself. Yes he regrets it now but for the wrong reason. I doubt he'd be regreting it tonight if he got what he wanted last night and his wife didn't find out. He regrets it now the same way a drug smuggler regrets it when he's caught. They never, ever regret it unless caught.

    He deserves every bit of sagging he gets. He seems to be as clever as the two hit men who put the bullets in the gun upside down.

    Skinnyfat, pigeon chested 42 year old puts up a shirtless pic on Tinder, I wonder who he thought was going to match with. He'd have to have legit swiped on wilderbeasts to even stand a chance. What a waste

    (I can't get over his fat handles! Rotten)

    How do you know he didnt match? Could have been at it all night.

    That is if the guy in the photo is actually the guy who set up that profile. For all we know it could be an image he pinched. He could then send someone else’s face pic, or even his own to interested parties.

    The whole thing seems a bit suspicious to me & I really think it’s just someone with too much time on their hands with a fake profile - a bored teenager maybe.

    It wouldn’t be the first time this sort of thing happened & wouldn’t be the last either. If the people that were outraged & really wanted to out him they would have asked for a face pic & plastered that all over the place also, instead of some random torso image.

    This isn't slut shaming, I'm pretty sure the issue those women had with him is that he's married. Still not cool to screen grab and put on Twitter, who made them the morality police.

    Well, we're really at an infancy stage to say that for sure. I know the small print in the T&Cs of most of those sites say that by accepting their terms they can publish your images and allow others to also, but there does seem to be something of a grey area there.

    Take this case for example:

    Ah now I don't think you really believe that. If you were to use a false photo of your chest you wouldn't pick a 12 year olds chest. You'd find something with a little more meat on it.

    Maybe his subconscious wouldn't let him cheat on his wife and picked out the weediest chest it could find as a babe repellant

    Aye, I'd say there's a fair bit of 'If I slag yer man people will think I'm ripped' going on alright.

    Seems in decent shape to me for 42. I swim and most men I see that age have a paunch.

    It's not as bad as I expected from what everyone was saying, but it's not a photo I'd be rushing to put use as my profiler. There's some seriously jacked topless blokes on Tinder!

    Well I'd be put off by the lack of a face more than anything, he could have a face like the back of a bus.
