They are certainly happy to ignore it. The same way they ignored episiotomies, mother and baby homes and various other horrific harms against women and girls over the decades. Another reason why we need #MoreMná in politics. This is man-brain in action. It's absolutely sick.

It's 2025. Wow. #MoreMná #Limerick
Tks for sharing, I do not know her personally either, but I like her work, and her new research direction is fabulous #moremná both in academic posts and in scholarly studies!
Today I had a little post election meet-up with some of my amazing #GE24 crew. I am so thankful for all the amazing support I have received since the general election. If you would like to get involved and join my team please let me know 🩷 #MoreMná

There is a great free event coming up in #Limerick next week, April 9th. It is designed for women to learn more about how our political system works. It includes great guest speakers and plenty of time for questions and answers.

Looks like just three women appointed as Cabinet Ministers in Irish government (20%) - McEntee (Education); Foley (Children & Disability); Carroll McNeill (Health) - down from four women in outgoing Cabinet. Of 219 people appointed to cabinet in Ireland since 1919, just 23 are women (10.5%) #moremná
My 5 year old was rhyming off my 1st 5 preferences in the voting booth.
Cycling to school really gets your kids into politics!
Feel privileged to have my daughter witness me vote for so many talented women in Galway.

Given the state of the past year, even just around the corner from this polling station, it feels a huge privilege and honour to give my 1 & 2 to two women who are proudly the child/grandchild of immigrants. Let's go @hazelchu.bsky.social & @ivanabacik.bsky.social!

Holly Cairns gave birth to a baby girl today!
Holly was the only female TD elected of 18 representing the 5 #Cork constituencies in the last Dáil and did a stellar job running her campaign whilst heavily pregnant.
Congratulations Holly 🥳

Her 4th time at polling place - and #MoreMná on the ballot for her to see than ever
Happy voting day!
I'll be out canvassing for Cllr Elisa O'Donovan of the Social Democrats in Limerick today! Its heartwrenching talking to people on the doors who are on waiting lists for basic services, then to find out that #UHL have no PET scan, if you want change you have to vote for it! #GE24 #MoreMná

Just had a lovely chat with @SocDems Ellen Murphy about the need for #MoreMná in #DubW as we have had none at all since the last election! We also agreed that establishment parties demonising young people in under-resourced communities is deeply irritating!
Hitting the doors for great chats today on the canvassing road for Cllr Elisa O'Donovan, the most hardworking councillor I know, she would be a fantastic TD for Limerick! Vote number 1 for Elisa! #SocialDemocrats ##GE24 #VoteForChange #MoreMná
I have spent the morning sending to everyone I know! 👏🏻 #MoreMná
