Irish American group finally allows women to join after 131 years

Hell, in ancient Celtic Ireland, woman were treated as equals. Even St. Bridget was consecrated as a bishop - and that really annoyed Rome. I say congratulations to the men of the Kingdom of Kerry based in NY for bringing us back to our ancient ways.

Maybe if Irish woman and gays would join these organizations, they would have one last rosary - bead in their litany of victimization. Fine with me.

Can us men not have our own groups? What is it with women they want to be offended and feel excluded. Can you imagine men wanting to be apart of a womens group?

It's about time !!

they shudda have a club of their own. Now the guys will have to shut their FN mouths and wear panties next. The unisex shiite is like mulligatawny soup where one hasn't a clue on whats in that crud. Mrs Murphy's trousers overalls.

hollaback " No wonder the St. Pat's parade is in the mess it's in." You're right, the Dublin parade is garbage. Thank God the NYC Parade is as good as ever.

The next thing you know they will want to be priest.

I bet that this place has a bathroom that only men can use. Throwbacks!

I am surprised it took this long to not be discriminatory against women…

As a proud Kerrywoman, where do I join?

It should Immediately be renamed the "Kerry Persons Association"!!!!! Without further ado a new organization called the Co. Kerry Berries and Twig Organization needs to be formed - no women.

Imagine those stupid Kerrymen thinking that a 'Kerryman association' should be for men from Kerry.

Ah yes Kerry.The highest mountain in Ireland is in Kerry and as an American discovered when he pointed out to a passing farmer that it did'nt look that tall to him and his wife he was met with the reply.."you see the thing about Carrauntoohil is that it lies in a bit of a hollow".So you can understand now why it took so long for the women to be accepted into the association,they have more brains you see.

They are from Kerry-why would any girl want to join?

These old throwbacks are just getting their heads around the equality of women, apparently. Give them more time to discover there are Irish gays too. No wonder the St. Pat's parade is in the mess it's in. Utterly amazing. Wait till they try and tell Chris Quinn she's not equal next March 17.
