Christine, typically, Irish men are fairly inhibited about their feelings Typically, aren't most men? I know that the trend now is away from such inhibitions, but every time I hear men proving their modernity by ostentatiously talking about feelings, I get the impression that they are not being entirely honest, that they are saying what they think their audience wants to hear. I've actually grown much more reticent about discussing feelings as I've grown older, particularly when it comes to discussing feelings intimately with women. It always seems a bit like dealing with those cops on TV: anything you say can and will be used against you. Forever. My experience is that when women say they want to know what you really feel, they have very specific things that they expect to hear, and react badly to anything else. Which usually leaves the alternative of lying or keeping your mouth shut. The men who get the reputation of being honest and sensitive are often just the best liars. Has anyone else noticed how women flock around men who lie through their teeth? That should get the conversation going on a subject other than religion... Steve
