You can’t discuss society without generalising. And what I said is true.

You know how Italian men wear vests and scarves right into June? That would never happen in Sweden.

On the contrary, the problem with Maltese men is that Maltese parents do NOT have a ‘boys will be boys’ attitude.

Boys in Malta were raised like girls, always protected from spills and ills, their mothers clucking over them dramatically if they scratched a knee, never owning a bike let alone riding it without 1,000 adults in attendance, never running wild or making a mess.

Haven’t you noticed how FUSSY Maltese men are, how UNMASCULINE? That’s the reason: too much time spent with mothers who fussed over them like girls.

In reply to Daphne Caruana Galizia. You're lucky. I'm hoping to do the same for my children.

I think you’re proving the point that church schools wreak havoc on a child’s mind. Too much religious dogma and repression, shaping the child into the uninformed, mentally challenged idiots we see today.

That can’t be possible, because you look to be my age, and I have to cast about me with a wide net to find even 10 men who went to that school and don’t speak Maltese English.

In reply to J Sammut. That's the sad truth re democracy.

In reply to Daphne Caruana Galizia.

Again, you’ve just described my father. NAIL-ON-THE-HEAD. His constant confusion of prepositions gives me anxiety. “Mike, what time do you arrive at Malta?”

SERIOUSLY? Grrrr.

Had this woman been a history buff, I would have said that she’s consciously trying to emulate Eva Peron and Imelda Marcos.
I must conclude that it must be a bogan’s reflex reaction to a sudden encounter with wealth and power.

In reply to Daphne Caruana Galizia. Daphne is totally spot on. My dad went there and he's just as she describes. And all he does is boast about how tough he was when the priests whipped them with some leather stick thing. I tell him it was because those paedophiles enjoyed their bondage moments with him. He gets upset.
