Why Irish man so shy to speaking about the SEX???

[Petros]

Doesn't matter what race, creed or social strata you were brought up in Petros. The overall sexual environment you were brought up in, if in Ireland, compared to Sherry, was very different and probably far less liberated.
We have moved on but some scars remain.

I'm sure it was whoseyourdaddy — I have no idea about what things were like where Sherry grew up. But there were a couple of comments previously blaming the Catholic religion for our shyness — frankly the catholic religion did not have any impact on me or my peers when I was growing up. That was the point I was making.

I think teenagers these days are much more open though.

They have access to a lot more information than we did. I still remember the abject terror of going into Eason's to buy playboy magazine the first edition after the ban was lifted! 1996 I think it was.

I was only interested in the articles, of course...

It not only Irish guys who shy......
British guys can also be shy when it come to that business too...
Brit guys and all nationality talk to their mate down pubs or in jacks about sex...
It just when come to meeting their partner or meeting a Escort it a daunting task on what to say or face to face...
Join the club guys as you not alone on this world....

I don't agree. The level of teenage depression and suicide here is horrendous.

But the religious influence overall is what people are getting at. Certain publications were banned, movies censored, and the media was certainly influenced.

This has a knock on effect.

Of course people are shy, when Peig is what we're studying in school, and women are almost as covered as the Saudis, compared to eastern, central Europe where the weather means swimsuits and deep tans for large parts of the year.... erm... What was I saying again???

Lithuania has a far worse problem with suicide, I believe.

Sometimes people mistake manners or indifference or circumspection for shyness.
Personally the Catholic church (or any other religion, spirituality /hokum ), had any influence on me nor held any interest for me, since I was 7 or 8.
But religion and some amount of religious repression did have a big influence in Ireland up to fairly recent times.
