    lads, go to your mates, brothers, fathers, uncles and shake their hands and appreciate your fellow men.

    Ladies appreciate the men in your lives today. Call your father, text your uncle and place a big kiss on the man in your life.

    Men, If you don't feel right inside, seek help. If you know a man who needs help, support then offer your help and support.

    Talk about issues affecting men that largely gets snubbed.

    Today is International Men's Day and it should be recognised more than it is.

    Before the usual, 'sure isn't every day men's day' and 'why is it needed' responses bare in mind....

    Objectives of International Men's Day include a focus on men's and boy's health, improving gender relations, promoting gender equality, and highlighting positive male role models. It is an occasion for men to celebrate their achievements and contributions, in particular their contributions to community, family, marriage, and child care while highlighting the discrimination against them.

    In before someone its sexist to have a special day for men. We're men, we open jars you can't open, we created fire, landed man on the moon.

    We're just unreal.
    Well done lads.

    Happy International Men's Day lads. May we all be prosperous and well.

    First I've heard of it!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,647 ✭✭✭lazybones32


    That explains why today was the first time I ever heard a news bulletin speak about male victims of domestic violence/abuse. I guess these facts won't be repeated for another 364 days but at least it's a start...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,866 ✭✭✭Fat Christy


    This is sexist! A day dedicated to men. I am shocked and appalled.

    They should have it earlier in the year. Far too nippy to be a penis wielding oppressor this late. You're confined to indoors, and sure wheres the fun in that?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,711 ✭✭✭C.K Dexter Haven


    That time of year again to go check them bits!

    Women are screwed... Going by the ads on TV they're always either constipated, have the shíts, in their period, have thrush, have incontinance or something else!

    Reminds me of this



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,153 ✭✭✭everdead.ie


    Reading an article this morning about amen and how they are a group helping men deal with Domestic violence.
    Three replies at that stage the first a man simply "lol"

    The next two from women advising the writer to put up amen's contact details.

    I thought that was very apt in how it shows societies approach to men with problems.

    Even the spokesperson for amen was a women.

    Man, men's worst enemy.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,382 ✭✭✭AndonHandon


    I prefer the idea of steak and bj day; I don't need a single day to be reminded that every other day is also men's day.

    Only 15 minutes left now, I only found out about it 5 minutes ago, I feel cheated and let down

    A lot manly things can be achieved in 15 minutes. Chop a few logs, make fire, bang a nail into some wood for no apparent reason; list is endless:P

    Happy men's day. I hope you all felt your balls. I mean, I know you all felt your balls, but I hope you were doing it with a health minded purpose for once. That whole "looking for a lump in a sack of lumps".
