When I'm anywhere near, or close to a conversation with an Irish woman, I say nothing, and just keep nodding my head in agreement..

I was struck by how pretty and slender many Irish women are. I could listen to an Irish accent all day long.

Irish men tend to resemble Howdy Doody. I am rarely bored enough to listen to a dummy.

Oh for those challenges of youth long gone. Fun read; brought out some sun on this gray day.

So you said you " had to dump several sets of bed sheets". Doesn't look like you were complaining then!!!! Seriously if this is your impression of Irish women then you really don't have a clue. Please do not tar us all with the same brush and seriously THINK before you put together a list like this.

This is as stupid as the men dislike lit. yes I may be able to drink you under the table and may be feisty but the rest is pure fiction. Hate shopping, don't wear high heels, NEVER have a bottled tan, not stuck up, paranoid or talk too much. Two out of ten makes this list fail!

Thanks for the great laugh I had over this very clever column. Hopefully Irish girls also have a sense of humor.

I had an Irish girlfriend, she drank alcohol of all sorts in particular Guinness, and red wine, and always to the point of getting drunk, and once that stage was reached she always started arguing about silly matters that had no importance, she obviously needed arguments, thus my decision was good bye dear.

I hate it when Irish women wake up in the morning and say "your an old man",while pouring your teeth and the water in the glass over your head.They never leave a few bob on the bedside dresser either.They just storm out the door.
