    Lol nope! Republic of Ireland has been a heavily-Catholic country since its inception. It’s lightened in recent years and some surprises do slip through but that ain’t one of them.

        Man ass is verifiably less offensive to religious types than any part of a woman being visible.

          I’d churn my own butter at the sight of a woman’s bare ankle bone. Best to just punish women for that. It’s impossible to control my own urges.

            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

            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.

            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

      I don’t think you’ve been to Ireland in a long long time if you think the church has any moral or real power over society as a whole here.
