as a rugby fan I hate to say it but we need to change our anti women mindset

Says who?

Is this just a Belfast thing? Poor Jamie Dornan gets treated like a piece of meat by females after 50 Shades of Grey instead of as the artiste that he is.

Agreed — this pack mentality fuelled by privilege stems back to the old late victorian empire mindset … that’s why it’s so prevalent in rugby and private school boys.

For the good of our game we need to change this.

The Second Captains podcast with him on this is genuinely brilliant. Factual and thought-provoking without any of the hysteria from all sides that has characterised a lot of the last week

listening now

its an eye opener

11 year old boys watching porn on their phones

I fear for my daughters

I’m sure your daughter is watching it as well, mate… can’t be avoided when you hand them access to it through a phone

7 year old girls have phones and are watching porn on them?

is this a cark or limerick thing?

No, mate … Tipperary … one of them handed his daughter an iphone for Christmas, i thought you agreed with that decision at the time?

need to review my postings but I doubt I did

you have stitched @Brimmer_Bradley up like a kipper

A few of the dads came to his aid … Not only have such actions of giving a smart phone to a child been torn apart by psychologists from a mental health point of view but now it’s been shown that use of phones by kids is lending to rape culture and all kinds of inappropriate sexual conduct and situations.

Anyone that gives a smart phone to a child under 16 should really be reported to the child protection crowd.

He makes a great point about men seeing sex as something that is done to a woman rather than with a woman.

A lot of men’s language around sex is based round violence.

I presume Craig Gilroy could legally challenge any proposed sanction in the courts here. At the end of the day he basically text his mate to see if he scored the night before. Who hasnt done that? Are we all to be suspended and maybe fired?

While admittedly, through no fault of his own, he has most likely brought Ulster Rugby into disrepute. I would imagine the Club has a Code of Conduct that would have been triggered by this. He’d be as well off keep his head down and take the rap.

I said rap lads, rap.

Then she gets you on her wavelength and she lets the river answer that you’ve always been her lover.

There are a few ironies about this whole bunworry. The young lady in question referred to poor Ms Florence and friends as “slutty” and reports would suggest she manhandled a few gentlemen before finding a suitable bedfellow.

Ulster rugby should say Gilroy’slanguage was inappropriate but private, undertake to speak to their players and then they should move on after having followed any relevant disciplinary procedures .
End of.

Brought Ulster Rugby into disrepute?

Lets look at what he said

‘Any sluts get fucked?’

The dictionary gives 3 definitions of the word slut. We will take the one down for the disparaging and offensive meaning.

“A sexually promiscuous woman, or a woman who behaves or dresses in an overtly sexual way”

Now the word “fucked” … from the verb fuck is defined as

“to have sexual intercourse with” (slang)

“Any sluts get fucked?”

I dont see the problem here.

Ulster rubby needs to be disbanded immediately.
