Á Tea For Two with Áine TyrrellÁ Tea for Two With Mandy NolanAs someone said to me last week, Mandy Nolan is a whole lot of woman. What words can contain this mighty woman who I am lucky enough to call my witch, best friend, and sister. We met years ago on a couch when accidentally someone missed a flight and she had to step into interview me. I laughed and cried in that interview which is the usual with Mandy, but I didn't know that at the time. And that happy little accident was the beginning of nearly 10 years of our lives, work and families intertwining i...

Living Hormoniously With Lissie TurnerGovernmental Ovarian Oppression - Aine TyrrellOvaries and their owners worldwide are no strangers to oppression. Different rules for different genitals have almost always negatively impacted more greatly the female of the species. In Ireland the misogyny was born through invasion by the British and when church then hopped into bed with state. Ireland became a nation littered with horrendous events - some as bizarre as banning tampons due to their 'sexual nature' to the horror of church and state-led infanticide. What was it like to grow up female under such a regime? How did it flow into the day to day and how did...
