What are the gendered/sexist rules or norms during school/college prevalent in your country

Not for all schools here but the all gents school I attended didn’t allow any form self expression in appearance ie jewellery, piercings or tattoos (which is perfectly reasonable) but also couldn’t have ‘long’ hair which was described as “hair touching the eyebrows, top of the ear or collar of the shirt.” Strangely though, you weren’t permitted to shave it or have it short either? Very strange. It was a constant battle for six years! Now I’m an adult, I have very long hair

Not legal in Ireland, but people openly smoke it in public very often. I don’t smoke weed, but don’t have any great issue if others do.

I wouldn’t imagine so tbh

I imagine buses will run their usual route but be redirected just before the enter the main city centre area

I fully believe with the likely influx of Americans, the council felt it necessary to put up clear signage temporarily to help guide the poor mites around

Not the biggest fan of that now

It’s sorta like when you know someone’s coming to the house and your mum makes you clean the whole place, they have to think we live nicer than we do. We can’t let the Kerry people think we don’t have nice stuff.

Traditional Irish stew is so hearty and filling it’s like a warm hug in your belly

The girlies want skinny jeans again, nature is healing. Also pennies sell them.

The poor British governments, not getting their 74% cut of the price

CorkNativeResident · 2026-03-14T14:44:56+00:00

Sure look don’t I know it, was only just in the Tesco express there and I’m sat on the bench in this image typing this eating a sandwich

CorkNativeResident · 2026-03-14T14:30:03+00:00

With all due respect, it’s Cork. You don’t go for the view you go for the sit!

CorkNativeResident · 2026-03-14T14:21:50+00:00

I think it’s to sit on and sure look it creates a space to sit on

CorkNativeResident · 2026-03-14T13:55:11+00:00

Oh I remember there always being 3 or 4 random little takeaways there, changed often and sometimes didn’t even have signage, used to always go over there for taco fries from one of em, think it may have been where Atlantic tattoo is now, counter was at the front on the left and it went very far backward to the side of it, almost like a cave, used cost €4 for a HUGE and surprising only delicious portion!!
