    The idea for this thread came about from seeing the Titanic Thread and the discussion on the new civil partnership proposals. You get more hits on a pair of tits on-line then the biggest piece of relationship legislation to hit Ireland ever.

    So while guys post that they would go first on the Titanic Thread -no you wont ya big wusses.

    Current legislation and family law cause married men to become homeless and with the recession this will no doubt get a lot worse and worse again if the new proposals become law as it will apply to cohabitting men too.

    85% of homeless are men and most are aged under 45

    So while in theory -the new legislation looks smart slick and funky -in practice where would you go and what would you do if it happened to you.
