Mentioned on this blog last week, Dil Wickremasinghe writes again this week in The Irish Times.
She blames the Catholic Church for the fact that Irish people don't like to talk about sex.
What would she write if she spent two or three years living in a religious community, especially a place where men 'train' to be priests.
It would be interesting to know what she would write about those who 'form' the 'trainees'.
Of course Dil Wickremasinghe has not the definitive word on the topic. But surely those who think they have, certainly don't.
