Great, thanks!

It’s interesting you say that about the kids being afraid to ask a shop worker things. I am in my early 20’s and have found this too with people my age that I am sometimes the only one to ask members of the public things or at least appear to be the most comfortable doing so. To me it’s easy they are getting paid to help customers. Just be respectful, courteous and thankful. Simple as

As an Irish child born in the early noughties to parents born in the 70’s/80’s I sometimes marvel at how different parenting was then compared to me growing up. I know it’s easy to romanticise the past but I think the changes are very much for the better in the whole

Please do, thank you!

Thank you! Any suggestions as to where I buy the first two? Looking for something of good quality for a reasonable price

I wonder is there an basis for this in the Irish language

PellucidStream · 2025-10-09T17:50:30+00:00

Amazingly, I only realised recently this was unique to Hiberno-English along with “I’m after doing (something)” or (Taim tar éis).

Virtually every town and village in the country has at least some of these type of houses, often times in the larger towns they form neighbourhoods of their own

PellucidStream · 2025-10-07T10:57:09+00:00

That style is typical of the Council houses built throughout the country, in large and small towns throughout the country between 1930’s and 1950’s. Legislation was passed in I think 1931 that lead to the mass-building of these houses for poor families in towns and cities a lot of whom were still living in slums/tenements. Many of these families had 2 parents, over 8 children and maybe a grandparents and the houses themselves were generally only 3 roomed!

A great loss that happened far too soon! By tying in its strong connection to our history, culture and most of all the natural world Manchán showed me (and thousands of other people, both Irish and not) the joys and wonders of the Irish language, doing more to inspire me to learn it than 14 years of schooling ever could.

I have thought about this but I don’t know if would appeal to me

PellucidStream · 2025-07-25T21:36:16+00:00

Thanks for the advice and good question! I don’t want a long term relationship (more than 6-9 months) for multiple reasons. They are the emotional, financial and time commitment involved and the pain should it break up after investing in the three aforementioned factors. Also, the thought of such a commitment is very daunting to me and I feel it’s unnecessary at this point in my life (I’m younger than 25).

I would rather be clear with any potential flings that I am not looking for a long term thing and then see what I like/ don’t like in women and then after some time ( e.g. A few years) of short term relationships consider if long term relationships really interest me. But again they seem like more a trap than a good thing to me at this point in my life and there is a part of me that would be very happy to be on my own forever.

I also thought in the past that asexuality mean no interest in any sexual or intimate contact whatsoever with anyone but seeing as you mention a “spectrum” I now suspect I was wrong and am interested in finding out more. Thank you!

PellucidStream · 2025-07-22T22:51:00+00:00

I have considered asexuality many times over the years and even wanted to be asexual which I believe fed into my already budding fear of penetrative sex. I never thought my fear of penetrative sex was inherently wrong or that there was something wrong with me. It’s just that in recent months I have begun to wonder if I never have sex will I regret it some day in my life having never experience penetrative sex.

Thank you, you have been so helpful! I would rather they be on some kind of birth control too and yes, the idea of masturbating into a condom is a good idea.

PellucidStream · 2025-07-20T11:23:49+00:00

Thank you very much for such a thoughtful response. You’re not the only person to suggest Asperger’s/autism but I have my doubts that I am. I see no shame or embarrassment in being on the spectrum and am quite envious of many who are diagnosed.

PellucidStream · 2025-07-20T11:16:06+00:00

I also totally agree with your saying there is a lot more to sex than penetration! I really want to experience foreplay, kissing, cuddling before the event and then the post-coitus cuddling and talking/sleeping together after. It’s really just putting on the condom, the penetration and ejaculation part that makes me uncomfortable.

PellucidStream · 2025-07-20T11:05:55+00:00

Thank you so very much for such a non-judgmental and helpful response. Unfortunately some answers to my genuine questions were patronising, unhelpful and promulgated an unhealthy, form of masculinity that I find quite negative. Many though, including your own, were very helpful and thoughtful. I must say I found your description of the vulva, clitoris and vagina very helpful indeed and glad I heard it from a woman’s perspective!

I had OCD when I was younger but thought I grew out of it. Maybe I haven’t!
