Manic 2000 is a Temple Theatre song .... I think no other nightclub should be allowed to play it!!!!

just to make the distinction between what i remember was called "the wezz" and old wesley.

the wezz is on fridays and doesn't server alcohol and i think it's 2nd year and under. probably some 6th class at it. i'm sure there will be someone who says " i know a girl who was 3 and a half that went there." but those are typical ages above.

old wesley is on saturdays and has a full bar license. the kids here are about 16 and up.

Your living in the past man! I left the place a few years ago and they stopped people from going upstairs to the bar on a sat because they eventually copped on and realised that everyone even with 'age cards' or 'passports' was still u18. They also got in S**t from the cops too!

A disgrace i tells ya a disgrace.

Ya little spoilt pup ya, in MY day we walked 15 miles just to get to school. The snow was even thicker where I lived. Jesus, you're beside the school if you only walk 12 miles.

Kids these days.

I went to Wesley once or twice back in the day when I was fairly young. Used to go with a crowd from terenure. To be honest, aound that time I had been to tin pan alley, itchy feet and other places, that would seem to be labelled "scumbaggish" at the time. But I NEVER encountered the stuff that went on at Wesley. It was a mess!

It seems that even though the place had a label of being "posh" it was the place were I saw the most sluttish behaviour going on. The women were a disaster. You had girls going around with D4 accents acting like prostitutes.

I wouldnt even insult prostitutes, by comparing. You'd wonder what they are like now a good few years later. *shudder*

Guess what? Girls like getting laid too. They're young, what's your problem with them having fun!?

Disregarding the racist bit (coz that's open to debate, could be hear'say etc) if she drinks and smokes then she must be a scumbag. Of course.

What would you say of a 14 year old guy going around scoring a ****load of girls?
What would you say of him getting head off 6 different girls?
Does that make him a slut or something?
In most guys books he'd be a legend, and he isn't a prostitute or anything.
Girls like sex just as much as guys do, and they should do what the guys do.

The majority of people in the world went to these types of discos when they were young, and its not the end of the world.
Infact out of the majority of people I know, nearly all of them drink sensibly because of an experience of them or their friends at places like Wesley.
Its part of growing up, and it was fun.
Sure 14 is quite young, but if you ensure your kids are brought up with the right ideas and proper sex ed, you've really got nothing to worry about.

p.s. Tabloid sensationalisation to the fullest.

joejoem · 29-06-2005 11:53AM

In fairness when the music blaring out at them is about sex or promiscuity what do we expect them to do? I ****ing hate that some by Kellis - "lets get it on in public" but you can bet that all those kids love it and any song like it.

Zulu · 29-06-2005 11:55AM

Tabloids, tabloids, tabloids.
When will people ever learn.

joejoem · 29-06-2005 11:57AM

The stories about snowballing were the worst

I couldn't have put it better mysef mate. A rag paper for a rag audience. It always has been...They are just as guilty of perversion as these paedophiles they are supposedly exposing....But I guess that is what seems to sell to the public these days....lack of standards is the problem

A guy in my year in school used to get up and rap along to the (original) Maniac at the underage disco (well it was over 18s but it was all <18s there) back when I was in 5th year. Everyone thought he was great. ehehehe.

So a few spoilt rich girls happen to be sluts(that drink). is this really a revelation to anyone? Paris Hilton anyone?

bullock · 29-06-2005 07:16PM

Snowballing .... Has anyone actually ever done it???

zinc · 29-06-2005 07:39PM

Im not shocked at all, as a Tallaght boy going out with a girl who used to go to the Wezz, we arent that much diffferent even though our schools are worlds apart (hers is 4000 a year) it seems we got up to much the same stuff, its just they were better dressed probably.

Although its not good, its always going to be there and I learned a few things about not drinking like an idiot, how to approach girls and how to defend myself at those discos, even had a few dances!

hardCopy · 29-06-2005 08:13PM

I just feel sorry for the girls and lads who go to wesley and dont carry on like that, who's parents are gonna stop them going and look at them in an entirely different light now.

I havent been to wesley in about 4 or 5 years and that sort of stuff did go on but there were also a lot of perfectly normal kids there who would never carry on like that

Then why mention the drinking and smoking bit then? Maybe Piste didn't "say it" but he certainly implied it.

No problem.
Just the poll say would you be comfortable with your kids going to old wesley now. and the answer is no.

Nothing got to do with tabloids, just I remember thinking at the time, being the ripe old age of 15 and all that, that it was a bit out of order.

to expand... I have no problem with people having fun. But for example, I would have a problem with someone saying "quote" if you buy me a drink inside then I'll give you a blojob"...
..funny I dont think she even got that drink at the end of the night.

My point was that wesley was a bit of a hole full of underage sluts who had no idea of the consequences of any of their actions, and it was all uneducated and underprotected...feck all got to do with fun really.

vexediter · 30-06-2005 01:29AM

the wesley story is really really over blown , im sure not all the girls go there wearing no knickers or clothes their parents dont want them to wear. i feel the story is biased against private schools a lot , dont think the papers like the type of schools these kids go to ( the annabel trial ) i think that if we look into these schools and compare them to less well off schools in relation to drop out rates and teen pregancy's they mite do a lot better. i'll admit i went to wesley a few times ( almost 8 years ago now ) and people are drunk , guys and girls are fondleing each. but my point is that they are not goin to under age clubs in disadvantged areas and take the same photos. they just show its the rich kids doin this and that , but most kids are doin this. also i'd like to point out i did go to a southside private school , and only 1 of my friends have a chold together , they are 24 tho and were 24 when the child was born . my girlfriend went to a school in a so called disadvantaged area (tho they have a lot more they i have near me) and of her friends 5 have children , one at 13 and another at 15 . so i dont think private schools are to blame .
