Oh, Pádraic...
Did you know that even St. Patrick is not free of some same-sex fun by proxy?
“The day I arrived, the ship was about to leave the place. I said I needed to set sail with them, but the captain was not at all pleased. He replied unpleasantly and angrily: ‘Don’t you dare try to come with us.’ When I heard that, I left them and went back to the hut where I had lodgings. I began to pray while I was going; and before I even finished the prayer, I heard one of them shout aloud at me: ‘Come quickly – those men are calling you!’ I turned back right away, and they began to say to me: ‘Come – we’ll trust you. Prove you’re our friend in any way you wish.’ That day, I refused to suck their breasts, because of my reverence for God.”
That's because apparently, the Irish were a raucous group:
“Before [Patrick’s] mission, Irish sexual arrangements were relatively improvisational. Trial ‘marriages’ of one year, multiple partners, and homosexual relations among warriors on campaign were all more or less the order of the day. Despite Patrick’s great success in changing the warrior mores of the Irish tribes, their sexual mores altered little.”
There may be something about 'the luck of the Irish', though. All the Irish men I've dated have been closer to Yolco's inspiration than to the typical red nose short hose myth...
Happy St. Patrick's Day!
Don't get too drunk!
XOXO
My, that certainly is a pot of gold!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh, definitely.
DeleteWith some Irishmen, all you have to do is follow the rainbow.
XOXO
What’s not to love about a red haired man? A top o’ the mornin’ and a Happy St. Patrick’s day, babe!
ReplyDeleteXOXO 👨🏼❤️💋👨🏽
Haha
DeleteLove me some ginger. I think they're delicious.
XOXO
Happy St Paddy's Day. The best time I had on this day was in Savannah Georgia. A major port of entry of the Irish during the Potato famine. It was like Mardi Gras. First time I saw green condoms and green toilet paper.
ReplyDeleteI love firsts!
Happy St. Paddy's Day!
DeleteOhh really? I didn't know! I thought it was the Northern Atlantic that got most of those. And green toilet paper? Really?
XOXO
what huge dick!
ReplyDeleteThat he indeed has.
DeleteYolco definitely has a style.
XOXO
It must be his particular characteristic, drawing huge dicks.
DeleteUm ... Happy Big Dick Ginger Day????
ReplyDeleteYes! HBDGD!
DeleteAnd that's a holiday that I'd be willing to celebrate very, very often.
XOXO
And top o' the mornin' to ye. The warriors - like all men through the ages - will find a way to satisfy the natural sexual urge. "Boys will be boys." Happy St Paddy's Day. XOXO
ReplyDeleteHeh.
DeleteThey do, indeed. It probably has to do with all that physicality. But weren't the Irish fun?
Happy St. Paddy's!
XOXO
Ah, any excuse to drink... :) Now... I rather like that Irish mate you're sharing. He looks like a mountain I'd like to climb (though he'd be the one doing the mounting!) You know, I have to be honest... the day has never done anything for me. I like kilts though... or rather, men who wear nothing on under them. But Happy St. P. Day, all the same. Thanks for the visuals. Kizzes.
ReplyDeleteHa!
DeleteAnd drink they do! Lord, when I lived in Pittsburgh, this was the one day you had to hold on to your knickers in a bar. And I'd like me an Irishman like this one too, TBH. And kilts are awesome. Especially when worn the traditional way....
XOXO
You do know that ginger haired Vikings sailed to the Emerald Isle long before that party pooper Paddy showed up to ruin things, don't you?
ReplyDeleteOh, totally.
DeleteVikings from Western Scandinavia were redheaded ( the ones from the North were blond) and they were all over Northern Europe even before the dawn of the Viking Age.
How do I know that? Love me a big blond or ginger brute.
XOXO
Well that is quite interesting and something I did not know. Thanks, Sixpence. I hope you have a fun and festive St. Patrick's Day.
ReplyDeleteI had no idea it was customary to lick another man's nipples to show that one was not aggressive. I would have liked that custom, TBH.
DeleteAnd hope you had a happy St. Paddy's Day, Mr. Shife!
XOXO
