I'm 50% irish and I think we are great, not shy with women, don't drink too much, we aint racist, only every 3rd word is a curse word. We have a green and beautiful land, no bombings, a booming economy . And we put up with old american tourists coming over in their polyester leisure suits talkin about the quaint old country, and how we must all live in thatched cottages and go to work on donkeys.
Oh and the other 50% of me is Irish too!! |

well I have one 100% irish friend, and I dont see any difference with her and others. ALTHOUGH--in the old times --apparently the irish were known to be gossips and drunks--my grandmother still says "shanty irish".....who knows... |

Everyone I met in Ireland was so friendly. They just might be the nicest people in the world. Crazy drivers tho. |

Lovely people, they drink too much, but they're very warm, fun-loving and great friends. I've been here for almost three months and I don't remember arguing with anyone!
Can I tell you one thing that bothers me though? Irish men are so good-looking and so funny, why are they so shy about approaching a woman that they have to take a few pints first? Call me old-fashioned but I don't like to make the first move! And I do not enjoy men coming on to me when they're drunk!
And no! I am not ugly! |

god bless us all

Everyone likes their accent and they have a beautiful country. To bad America builds on every inch of our land. Other countries respect the land and try to preserve it. |

I've ALWAYS wanted to go to Ireland. That whole IRA thing is kind of scary, but I've heard it's a very scenic country. |

My Grandfather was Irish and married a black woman, I have met very few who aren't racist. I haven't been there but I hear in Ireland the only way they refer to blacks is N@gg#. |

Those that I met while in Ireland were very patient. Most understand that you need to take the bad with the good, which I find to be rather empowering and reinforced through song and culture. Their sense of humor is often very practical and healthy and tends to be drier than American humor, but not as much as British humor.
The culture is supportive of talent and creativity in an ancient, ingrained way. Even a week long tour of Ireland will reveal that the people of Ireland are diverse in beliefs and lifestyles.
I am told by an Irish friend that "The Matchmaker" (a movie) gives a pretty accurate representation.
I did encounter a moderate amount of racist language and behavior in Dublin, but as I look like most of the people who live there, I am unsure if I got the full extent of it.
It's much easier to initiate a conversation with a stranger in Ireland than it is in most other places in the world, especially over the drink. |

love 'em, what a great country w/ wonderful hospitality, and great food too, which surprised me a bit, however, the beer is not cold enough there, but that is how they like it. Never been in northern Ireland only the south and would love to go back because their is always whiskey in the jar... |

Yes! I also love their accent, but they're also very friendly I find. Plus their country is beautiful. |

I have an acquaintance who lives in Ireland. She's really cool. Plus Irish accents are cool and for some odd reason I am in love with the name Seamus. |

The only thing I can think of right offhand is that I love their accent. |

I am partly Irish. From all I have heard, Ireland is one of the most beautiful places on Earth, with friendly people and a booming economy. Everyone I know who has visited there has loved it. I know Ireland had big problems in the past, I hope those are behind it forever, and that the upward trend for the Irish people continues! |
