551609 I noticed that whoever penned this was a misogynist and we have had 34 posts since, and no-one else has commented on that fact.

Is sexism quite common still in Ireland as it is frowned upon certainly in the North? Maybe we are more aware of equality in the North given our recent circumstances, but I am rather shocked that no one else commented on the rampant sexism contained in the e-mail.

The basic premise in constantly referring to the administrator/s as ladies, is that women are stupid.

Such an attitude is the same as sectarianism and racism and needs to be strongly opposed.

EVERYTHING about the post is bad form, but sure you stay up there on your high horse.



Can I take that as a YES?

Patrique

And what about the racism shown towards meath people. Or is this common place in Antrim that you felt the need to ignore it.

Take it whatever way you like Patrique. No doubt it'll make you feel superior. Whatever you do, don't take it the way it was intended.

This thread gets curiouser and curiouser. It has the whiff of Smileys People about it, tell them what that was Patrique? I am no cyber expert but surely in this day and age it is not impossible to prevent a user taking on several nom de plumes? Can one e-mail address not be restricted to one username, why is that not possible. If the mods know people are doing this just bar their particular e-mail address altogether.

A few people on here have mentioned the individual so I guess I know who it is now.
