    Oh Coppers, The Kestral, The Palace all fine establishments

    They are fine establishments? :D


    Honestly maybe you guys need to look at yourselves and your approaches to these girls who are rude.Because i have never seen any of what you say about Irish girls attitudes.And the beer guzzling and dressing like that i have seen very little.And wrong to generalise because then we can about men to:D

    Good actually, I've been up since 6 fine tuning our reports and it looks like it worked, my colleague is on the phone with them getting a nice order on the back of our teams work, we hopefully can keep all our staff now (thanks be to whatever god you choose) :D*

    *sorry for going off topic again but I don't feel like arguing anymore, we'll be cracking out the bubbly soon!
    as I've been up since 5am and got my stuff finished by 12 I thought I'd torment a few boardsies while having a cup of tea and a break - my guilty pleasure. And your excuse would be?

    Ps its legal to have 15 min break for every 4 hrs you work. I also have an office to my self so I can do what I like as long as the work gets done.

    If you're going to talk horse sh!te then at least leave more than 5 posts space before telling related lies. You wil be exposed

    Sorry, but an Irish girl dressing like a thai hooker to go on a cold November night in Dublin has nothing to do with my self esteem.

    Prinz if I'm on the right line of thinking the only girls who would "dress like Thai hookers" would be fairly young and therefore for the most part uninterested in settling for the first guy they come across (except maybe just for that night) especially if he is so locked he can't zip up his pants.

    So maybe thats why young Irish guys find young Irish women stand offish. I don't think many Eastern European/American/British girls under 25 would be much different in that respect.

    You're not. This applies right on up the line. Not always to the same extent, or not always regarding less clothing, but the same attitude. Also it not only applies to nights out/trying to score but just general interactions on a day to day basis.

    Oh but they would. I've been out in Dublin many times with the fiancées friends and siblings, cousins, etc, also in-laws from another European country.. and they can't believe the way Irish girls especially dress in the pubs and clubs, even on the street in the middle of the day. You'd quickly get a non-complimentary name for yourself.

    Just to clarify, I was up at 5 to get washed dressed and made up, and in the office at 6 along with the rest of my colleagues so we could nail this thing. I work normal office hours usually. Is that enough info or would you like to know what I had for breakfast?

    I dislike you calling me a liar, bitch if you like but not liar.

    I know a few Eastern European girls that dress like hookers so I don't think thats much of an argument. Do you ever go to the Czech Inn? I went to a Slovakian hen party there once and several of the girls had skirts just covering their nether regions. I was being mocked for covering up so I find what your saying strange, sure loads of Irish girls dress like hookers but this is universal.

    Most Irish women i know ranging from ages of 18 to 45 take care of themselves and do not go overboard on weight wise.Young girls i do know and mid 20's who put on weight is due to the pill and other reason.
    Irish women on a whole are slim in general.In a class of 36 girls when i was 18 there was only 2 larger girls.In a school of about 3 thousand girls,I saw i would say five larger girls and that was about it.The ones who are married and with their husbands some might put on weight.But the whole Irish women are fatter is a complete load of bull.
    As I said the average 18 to say 22 year old is pretty much the same as overseas. Pretty much. Beyond that I've defo noted differences in sizes. In both genders too. Walk down a street in Milan and compare it to a street in Dublin. There is an appreciable difference in the amount of bigger women. I'm not talking obese and it does depend on what one defines as bigger. This is not an attractiveness thing as such. A lot of men like more curves on a woman. On the street in milan you will see many more small framed women. I'm not talking about anorexic 5ft 19 size 8's either. I know womens sizing is a minefield but lets take the average idea of it. You will see more 14 - 16 sized mid 20's women in Dublin than in say Milan. You will see more (non bony) size 8's in Milan. In somewhere like Slovakia the difference is even more marked. The overall average will be smaller. The Irish would generally be taller and bigger framed though so that's a lot of it too. Irish women seem to have bigger boobs too. Bonus for breast men:)

    You see this is a thing I've noticed being trotted out. They're not permanently hungry. This notion that a slim woman is permanently hungry is a bit a a silly one IMHO. Would anyone say the same of a skinny man? I seriously doubt it, yet the notion that a slim woman must be always hungry and counting calories is a very common one.

    I have known quite a few slim women and all but one just didnt have big appetites(and she lived in the gym). That was mostly why they were skinny. It's why I'm skinny. I just dont eat much. Im not permanently hungry either. Sometimes I have to remind myself to eat something. Plus if you're smaller to start with you're going to need less calories anyway.

    Maybe its part of the irish diet that makes people more hungry in a way. I do think the weather does anyway. In 30 degree heat Id eat even less than I do now. I just wouldnt be interested.

    Liah I've heard this bashing our home grown bs from men of all different nationalities.
    It is a self esteem thing on their part. Women in foreign countries are easier targets, and they care less about their opinions if they do get shot down.
    I would agree with a lot of that yes.

    Many worry about Artificial Intelligence. I worry far more about Organic Idiocy.

    But it's a fact - please don't take as a jibe, this is a measurable fact. In Polish high street clothes go from 6 to maybe 14, in most shops you'd be hard pressed to find 14. My sister is size 14-16 and is considered seriously biggish in Poland. She was overjoyed to discover that she can get clothes in any shop here as most of them stock up to size 20, in Poland she had not much choice other than specialty shops and frumpy granny clothes they stock.

    I gave up on trying to find size 8 in Irish shops. Even 10s are often hard to find as I experienced this weekend trying to hunt them among the piles of 12 to 16s.

    This is not a critique, merely an observation. I think it boils down to cultural background - when a Polish girl finds out her size 10 clothes are tight alarm bells go off and it's automatically jump on your bike fitness time.

    ;) I am a size 6 :o and i can find my Clothes for my size no problem at all.The only time i cant is when i wait to long and they have sold out of the style i like.

    And that's considered big here to.Happy she found nice clothes for her:)
    A Friend of mine who is large can never find her sizes.
    Maybe because Irish decided to accommodate women who are larger as there is in all countries of world.

    Neither myself or any of my friends single or otherwise dress like hookers, normally a girl has work clothes, hanging out clothes, going out clothes and going out out (clubbing) clothes. If a girl wears clubbing clothes during the day thats her own business, she can wear what she likes as far as I'm concerned. And did you question all said girls to check they were indeed all Irish?

    I think you'll find they'll do that here. I've not been to Eastern Europe but you'll never find that on the average girl on the street in Germany, France etc

    I'm a girl and I find Irish women so hard to get along with. It's the only country I haven't had loads of female friends. The attitude of a lot of people makes them uglier in my eyes. I also just don't find them overly attractive as a whole. There are some real stunners definitely, but the majority are pasty, stumpy, plain and dress badly. And I find that many Irish girls have a totally overinflated view of themselves, the most average looking girls go on as if they're supermodels. In fact, other girls act like they are as well. Having dyed blonde hair and wearing 5 layers of make-up doesn't make you pretty. :confused:

    No, but guess where I'm going this weekend! :p

    . If a girl wears clubbing clothes during the day thats her own business, she can wear what she likes as far as I'm concerned.

    And as far as I'm concerned I'm free to find that deeply unattractive. But like I said, a lot of it is mental too.

    Over the years my Girlfriends have been from far and wide, UK, Sweden, USA, SA, FR, OZ etc and Ireland of course. I would say its probably a 50-50 split between Irish and foreign. Of course they were all lovely. But I have to say that in my experience loads of Irishgirls are a bit up themselves and shallow alroish! Hopefully the recession will slap a bit of reality into them and the male equivalent too, who were probably more annoying! Of course the Irish women I've dated have been smart, funny, humourous, and didnt take themselves too serious, thats why they went out with me ha ha! A lot of Irish girls take themselves far too seriously. Its hard too take a girl seriously if she is orange like an oompa lumpa regardless of how great she may think it makes her look. But generally you can tell very quickly what a woman is like. Stay away from the bad apples and remember the small things count just as much as the grand gestures.
    Irish girls prefer the foreign boys and Irish men prefer the foreign girls. I think it's a subconscious 'grass is greener' type effect.
    Anyway in closing most Irish women are bang on(and beautiful) but a lot of Irish women are seriously deluded about themselves. The same could apply to Irishmen but this thread aint about them.

    Ok but Ive been to nightclubs in Germany, Italy, France, Czech Republic and Poland and guess what its full of scantilly clad local girls. And I assume you see them on the street too as they obviously don't live in the clubs.

    Trust me, you don't. I have lived in three european countries where the ladyfolk wouldn't dare go out and about dressed the way a lot of Irish girls dress. Not unless they're selling something.

    I'm afraid I'd get a ban, the ones on my pc are a bit on the naughty side :eek:

    On a serious note, could you ever PM me those pics when you get a chance? Thanks.
