For those curious, here’s from the other side. www.rte.ie/news/2024/0513/1448890-dublin-portal/

Fiivemacs ,

Not the view people are going to be hoping for…

aodhsishaj ,

Hehehe

AmidFuror ,

Very different perspective indeed. The OP article is sensational and refers to the "chaos" that ensure.

Toplessness is legal in New York, but I don't think flashing would be. Not sure about the laws in Dublin.

This was obviously a business move to draw fans to the OF site. The better article didn't publicize the woman's name.

fah_Q ,

This doesn’t make sense so why do they hate gays then?

floofloof ,

Because they find gay sex unappealing, seems to be the main reason. If you point out that that is simply because they’re not gay, they are unable to understand the point.

SuckMyWang ,

It’s the enjoying part that is frowned upon. They assume everyone loves seeing boobs so they must be punished for that. A bare man ass is comical at best for most. If they thought people were enjoying it they must be punished

520 ,

Because Catholicism.

Catholics believe that any sexual activity that doesn't have a chance of making a baby is sinful. Gays obviously can't make babies as a normal part of their love making, so that's where the whole 'being gay is sinful' bit comes from

fah_Q ,

Probably that it taste disgusting and super sweet like “American” food.

Zron ,

Super Sweet

Tell me you don’t know what an Irish car bomb is without telling me you don’t know what an Irish car bomb is.

scops ,

…Irish car bombs have Bailey’s Irish Cream and possibly coffee liqueur in them. Many people would say that’s a pretty sweet drink.

You sure you’re not thinking of an Irish Boilermaker? That’s just a beer with Irish whiskey.

Zron ,

I think this is a regional thing, as you just made me doubt myself.

I’ve ordered car bombs here in the Midwest and it’s always been whiskey and a stout. I don’t know if I’d call anything with just coffee liqueur in it a “car bomb” that’s not a very strong drink.

A quick Wikipedia check says it can be either Irish cream or whiskey, and that the names are somewhat interchangeable.

Amanduh ,

Irish carbomb is a glass of Guinness and half a shot of Jameson Irish whiskey and half a shot of bailey’s Irish creme. Drop the shot in and chug the delicious concoction.

fah_Q ,

Delicious as say a chocolate milkshake?

Zron ,

Can’t say I’ve ever had the cream

fah_Q ,

Enjoy your corn syrup in everything you eat and drink. Your a fooking retard if you don’t think an Irish car bomb doesn’t taste like a milkshake.

Zron ,

Wow, you’re pleasant.

See, where I’m from, a carbomb is a cocktail made from beer and hard liquor. We’ve got Chicago carbombs/handshakes which is Malort and Old Style. I’ve even had a Mexican carbomb with tequila and Modelo.

Coffee liqueur and beer isn’t really a thing where I’m from, in the heart of corn country. So you’re the one drinking milk shakes at the bar as far as I’m concerned.

Maybe instead of being a dick to people because of where they happen to live, you could try to learn about cultural and regional differences.

fah_Q ,

Oh of course your a dumb fuck from Chicago it all makes sense. All that wind and bullshit spewing from your fat face. Only the mentally challenged would pay to drink malort. I bet you drank those Mexican carbombs on “Mexican Independence Day” or Cinco de mayo 😂.

daltotron ,

That doesn’t really seem very equivalent. The closest equivalence I can think of is either the terrorism of the founding fathers, which is too far back to really strike the same chord, or maybe like, american drone strikes or something. Or, maybe if I was feeling particularly cheeky, I might compare it to the violence enacted by the civil rights movement, since that was also a domestic american liberation movement maybe comparable to the IRA, but, I dunno. not really any american style equivalence there.

    I didn’t know guys had breasts, thanks for that clarification.

    en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breast

    Women tend to have more tissue and larger size as a secondary sex characteristic, but both men and women develop breast tissue. Men and women both have breasts.

    _sideffect ,

    No they don’t. Men’s breast tissue goes away from 6 months to 2 years of age.

    If they continue to have it, its an issue.

    Men over a certain age can get it due to weight or other issues, but it’s not a fact to say that men have breasts.

    thejml ,

    Congratulations on learning something new! Guys have always had breasts. That’s the way human anatomy works. They may not be as developed, but they’re always there to some degree. They can even excrete liquid through their nipples in some cases!

    In New York, exposing genitals is illegal for everyone.

    In New York, exposing nipples is legal for everyone.

    You’re the one advocating for a double standard.

    Nice try, though. And nice attempt to move the goalpost away from your asinine reframing of equal rights as a “sickening” double standard.

    Really? So why was it shutdown for inappropriate behavior if no one did anything wrong as you claim?

    That’s kinda my point. Mastectomies would bring the average down but more women brings it back up. Too lazy to Google but is global # of women who have had mastectomies more or fewer than # of “excess” women (over men)

    daltotron ,

    Well are we just equalizing based on boob number, or are we also equalizing based on average boob size? Because some men also have boobs due to hormonal imbalance, and that’s even more if we decide to count like, fat induced moobs for whatever reason. The hormonal imbalances at least would probably bring the average back in favor of slightly more than one boob. If we’ve equalized it to boob size then we’d probably all have like small A cups or something.
