Bad Beat/Moaning/Venting - pray for Lazare

[Guest]

spring time in France, you be all like

Highlight of my life still has to be me and a m8 sitting on a beach in SW France one sunny day when a busload of stunning French 6th year girls\ 1st year uni students (that age) landed in front of ud and proceeded to get topless and more and rub sun lotion onto each others breasts paying no heed to the pasty Irish yokels sitting there looking exactly like that homer picture. Wouldn't happen anywhere else

[shrapnel]

Are you married to s French chick Shrap?

yes, born and grew up in Paris although she is of Eurasian heritage (French mother, Vietnamese father).

[MrsFlushdraw]

spot on. Regardless of their body shape, they also know what to wear and how to make themselves look good. And their confidence and outright flirtiness just makes them look oh so desirable!

I thought he wa describing the guys in that post

[shrapnel]

nah. twas the girls. The guys are just arrogant wankers (not all mind )

[careca]

Dated a Chinese girl for a couple of months early last year. Until I went over to China and started working with Chinese people regularly they just seemed impenetrable as a culture. Once you get to know them they're genuinely a great bunch of lads. Women are hot, generally down to earth and the feminist movement hasn't reached Asia which is oddly refreshing. Very different set of cultural norms and pressures though so you're kept on your toes.

[careca]

still can't load an image ^^^

Sounds like the best of both worlds. Vietnamese women are very hot imo.

Nice try mate. Universitys dont tend to drive their students around in buses.

Refreshing in what way?

[LuckyLloyd]

Refreshing in what way?

It's different to be expected to inhabit a more traditional male gender role relative to a typical late twenties University educated Irish female.

[Guest]

Refreshing in what way?

A good friend of mine was datinga chinese girl.
She had a good job worked for herself on saturday and sunday.
When she stayed with my friend she would cook the dinner wash up one day she cooked a huge prawn feast for us all.
Me and other mate stood gob smacked as she peeled my friends prawns she made him feel like a king.
Throw in she would do his laundry ironing everything.
Im guessing you didnt have to earn your blowjobs with her unlike some irish women as well-just a guess.

[Denny Crane]

Looking forward to today's posting.

Feminism is a good thing

Its just the out there, constantly privilege checking feminazi shit we can't deal with, right ?

[Lord Sir Banter]

Lol. The bitterness. Irish women are class, in my experience.
Went out with a chinese girl for a bit, never lifted a finger, did not cook, wouldn't put out.

You'd almost wonder if it comes down to the individual.

[Silver-Tiger]

Any of the IFSC crew in here see or hear that shooting?

Some friends working there said it was grim. Shot at least 6 times up close.

[Guest]

Only spent a few weeks in Vietnam the women are very pretty but so tiny and petite to me they looked like young teenage girls.
Lovely people very friendly and not just when they want something off you.
The hardships they endured firstly from the Vietnam-ar then under communism and seemingly little resentment.
Met a nice american guy about 70 who lived there and he told me all i needed to know about Vietnamese women and culture.

His buddy owned the bar i had breakfast in and married a vietnamese woman its usually needed to buy a business there.
He said you marry her you marry her family and you need to take in her parents sibling etc.
He warned the vietnamese are great women but if you fuck someone else and they find out you would wake up with your balls hacked off.

Hold on a fucking second! I merely said it was different / refreshing. And when casually dating it is kind of nice to be expected to take the lead on stuff, hold out a chair, help someone with their coat, whatever. Nobody was cooking / cleaning for me ffs. What are ye like looking to pounce on every tiny thing.

Being in China, the macho nature of the culture / work environment is not a good thing. But life is about experiences - it's interesting to see different angles on stuff.

Bitterness? No bitterness about Irish women here. Yeah, every individual is different but only a fool would deny the effects of social / cultural conditioning.

Also, someone 'peeling my prawns' wouldn't make me feel like a king, it would make me feel like a child or invalid.

There are differences in the degree of expectation on this stuff, shrugs. It's certainly nice to do it and it be welcomed.

Peeling prawns is time consuming.
It was just a once off im sure personal experience i had seen and witnessed.
Not some copy and paste job from google.
I m guessing you love doing laundry and other crappy household chores as well.

[hotspur]

It's probably not a coincidence that Lloyd and Sickpuppy are (as I am interpreting it at least) expressing something about the shift in gender roles. So while someone such as myself would have a problem with hegemonic masculinity from a physical perspective, LL and Sp are fine lumps of lads who would thrive and be valued for their masculinity in a cultural era of hegemonic masculinity (neither are going to pull off metrosexual any time soon).

Both clearly place value on the physically tough masculine ideal. The Big could really be called The Big Balls. The shift in gender roles over the past few decades which has led to what has been called "the crisis of masculinity" has greatly affected gender role power dynamics both between genders and within genders.

"Manly" men are much less valued now than 30 years ago. Even attacked in ways, as being unreconstructed males. That's a pretty profound power inversion over a short period of time. Cultural devaluing leads to frustration and anger generally, to see it happening over such a short period of time surely adds to the sense of anger that society is going in the "wrong" direction, and valuing the "wrong" things.

Since traditional masculinity is associated with "strength", then the devaluing of it by a society must be a society which is promoting "weakness". It is hardly surprising why Luckylloyd or Sickpuppy would wish for a more traditional gender role assignment and culturally valuing. They would be valued more in such a culture.

It's interesting to consider or reflect upon that significant aspects of our views and relationship with the Other in society can be so fundamentally grounded in something such as our body. As mostly White, "Christian", heterosexual, Irish, able bodied people we probably don't find ourselves aware of or reflect on this kind of thing very much.

And don't get me started on glaciers.

Sigh wish i popped in and sat beside ya when i saw this week such a genuine great source of knowledge.
In fairness 30-40 years ago a mans job for many would have been seen as much easier.
Hand the wages in after the weeks work woman stays at home raises the kids easy game.
My mother cant contemplate how easy my sisters have it in comparison to her.
Five kids and my father never changed a nappy etc now and quite rightly men help out a lot more.

Ah no wasn't trying to pounce was just wondering more in general if the backlash the feminazis are creating is going too far.

I will be pouncing when we see how far Sinn Fein/IRA have managed to distance themselves in the last ten years from whoever is going to be charged with Paul Quinn's murder.
I was thinking something along the lines of :

Australia warning it's citizens about travelling to Ireland.

Tensions between dissident republicans and unionists have increased in the lead up to the centenary of the Easter Rising (24-29 April – Proclamation of Irish independence). You should avoid all protests and demonstrations, including those associated with Northern Ireland, as they may turn violent. Instances of civil disorder can rapidly escalate into violence and you should avoid them wherever possible, including through careful monitoring of the media and following the advice of local authorities.

[CHDad]

The only rise in tensions will be cause of aussies being themselves. The cunce.

I had thought that since people are marrying later the women were becoming more independent for longer. As in the gap between education (parents are responsible) and marriage (traditionally man was responsible) is now a lot longer.

As a result women learn independence which otherwise they wouldn't have the chance to, get further down their career paths which leads to double income family being normal rather then unusual.

This has shifted how women want to be treated whilst men learnt from their fathers that it was a different dynamic.
