Your line is weak but your point is strong: Liveline from 10th January

We need a bad line before this gets out of hand.

Joe skipping past that detail...

This needs to be made into a moooovie

This is what should be thought in history class. Forget about the "the brave heros of 16 and 21", they needed up handing the country over to those bastards.

The head nun must have drove a flash car.

A mixed race baby.... a doctor's baby possibly.

And then the ****ing nuns weren't too happy when the baby was born. "What is this." "What have we got here?".

Why? More than likely because the bitches would get less on the American black market for a mixed race baby than a white Irish baby.

FORGET FARLEYS

Some paimkillers and a little empathy would have been nice.

Is that such shocking advice? (Not to mention she had been in a mother and baby home after leaving)
Society wouldn't exactly have been accepting of a woman who was in a mother and baby home no?
Or am I totally off the mark

It definitely wasn't acceptable in society to be pregnant out of wedlock. A friend of my mother, who worked in her office, disappeared for almost a year from work. Mum believed subsequently the poor woman must have been pregnant. Later she appeared terrified of men, so may have been raped.

Sion Hill won´t be happy about this.

I want to hear the story of the Limerick lady who married the jailbird.

She may as well be talking to a gate post.

She is revealing some shocking stuff and he keeps moving along from them every time

That is tremendously sad.
The Catholic church, the state and society as whole....plenty of blame to go around.

Getting more and more angry listening to this.

How the **** have angry mobs not burned down every convent in the country??

Is it just me or do callers become less and less credible the longer they talk?

Kalimah

I thank God on a reasonably regular basis that my mother ( pregnant out of wedlock in 1962) eloped to England with my father, and subsequently got married before I was born. She knew what might have been ahead of her, though I think my grandfather wouldn't have let her go into any of those charnel houses.

The nuns were vicious, vindictive, malevolent frustrated oul b*****s for the most part in those days.

Yeah. Nuns were a product of their times then, but thankfully the French order nuns of my school took a much more liberal approach for their time, this is the very type of thing that was explored in religion class. I only later realised that other nuns were stuck in a time warp.

Will Joe take on de brothels? De udder head shops.

Del.Monte

Great misery Ad. What happens if you buy sex and aren't married with kids - who do you explain it to?

sligojoek

Might as well keep her till 3.01 now

gmisk

An anti prostitution ad on Joe Duffy....that's a new one!

Do they have to put on someone who is pro prostitution for balance?!

Maybe, but they are no in danger of falling to the presenter's level.
