I mean, this is.

I'm just delighted. I'm just delighted to have, you know, had the opportunity to write the book and be heard and to say something about misogynistic Ireland. Because one of the things I know about the misogynist is that he wants to shut you up. Mm-hmm. Verbally and physically. In Maureen's case, obviously she was incarcerated.

So it was lovely to be able to come out the far side of that and use my voice and use my power to be able to say something which obviously Maureen at least does not find in any way offensive and finds it accurate.

Well, Ireland is and was primarily Catholic, you know, and the Catholics were, generally speaking, poor and Protestants were not. But I just wasn't brought up with any hatred. I was very lucky in that regard. And I never remember my parents having any kind of a them and us relationship.

And I actually remember my mother saying that a Protestant was more likely to give you a lend of a plow than a Catholic would be. And so I was very lucky. I didn't think about Protestant neighbors as being anything other than more privileged than we were. So there was there was just no no hatred at all. There was no hostility as far as as far as I remember any anywhere in my childhood.

There wasn't a great deal, apart from the motor cars, I don't know that there was a huge difference between the 80s and the 60s or the 50s. Wow. We had bad hairdos in the 80s. Contraception was illegal in Ireland until 1985. Martial rape was legal until 1990. So that'll give you a picture of what the 80s were like in Ireland. We also had the highest unemployment in Western Europe. Wow.

So it was a difficult and backward time.
