Special Tours | Piety, Penance & Potatoes
A Sexual History of Ireland

From the Celtic brehon laws (bad breath and poor sexual performance were grounds for divorce) to the impact of the Potato Famine on religion, sex & marriage; from 'the Monto' (Dublin's inner-city red-light district) to the virtual slavery of the Magdalene laundries; from the sexual repression of post-independence Ireland to the Womens' Liberation movement of the 1970s and the exposés of recent years
