I’m Irish I never heard that expression maybe I’ve been sheltered.Although it clearly was a "thing" for many people, I can remember years ago, it being referred to as "Irish contraception"!
I always heard that Muslim girls favoured it to preserve their virginity for marriage.
I’ve heard of fundamentalist/evangelical Christian having bum sex to present virginity but I’ve never heard it from catholics!I’m Irish I never heard that expression maybe I’ve been sheltered
I heard it was the American girls thing? Anything but foof.I’m Irish I never heard that expression maybe I’ve been sheltered
You know what, Paula could be really funny sometimes too, you lot make me laugh you do x
Michael looked rough when be was with her. Mystify is a really good documentary about him
It was a great documentary, I was moved by Kylie's recollection of their time together. I don't know if it's true but I remember the tabloids reporting that Paula didn't want his exes at the funeral.
It was hilarious when they did that on Downton Abbey. To preserve Mary lol
Back to Peaches 
Does anyone remember this programme when she went to Morocco? As a study of Islam. I watched it at the time and it was so cringe. Her main conclusion - 'like, there just doesn't seem to be any fashion'. Tbf she was 17.

Does this thread load super slowly for anyone else? Same with the gender thread. Makes me wonder if they’re being monitored.

I believe it's quite well known that Bob was an emotionally and physically distant father, who left the kids to their own devices (nannies when they were younger) in their own wing in his huge house. Peaches often mentioned the fact that her and her sisters didn't get to grieve their mother properly - they were all sent to school the day after Paula's death, as if nothing had happened. "The show must go on" was his motto, it seems. Those poor little girls.
I'm going to have to watch this, is it on YouTube?
I must be too young but I dont think I'd know any of his songs, he always looked a bit grubby
INXS were SUCH a good band. Their music was amazing - you must go & listen now. Never Tear us Apart is one of the best rock love songs.
So sweaty - like he needs a good wash.
(I realise this makes me sound a lot like my mother, who would say such things about the pop stars of my youth).
It's happening to me on every thread and I have locked myself in a room, and put foil on the windows as well as on my head
I just spent way to much time reading both of the Peaches threads. Clearly I have too much time on my hands, but it’s been a fascinating read.
I was a little jealous of Peaches when I was younger. We were born in the same year. I think it was in her column for Elle Girl that I first heard of her, 2003 maybe? I was very much obsessed with the London indie thing going on at the time and I was pissed that a girl (who seemed to be just like any other random girl) was being handed the lifestyle I wanted because of her famous dad. Yes, it’s incredibly embarrassing to think that I was once so bratty.
That said, I remember seeing Peaches on the cover of Elle - I think it was the cover - after she’d had either one or both sons and she looked beautiful and sounded so mature. I also saw her take on Katie Hopkins and thought she did so well. It changed my opinion. I’d also done some growing up and was less of a brat myself. It was a shock to hear she’d died and it was very sad.
Reading more about the family here I can see how the trauma has likely been passed down through the generations and it goes some way to explain Peaches’ addictions. Recent research has shown that trauma changes a persons’ DNA and this can be passed on genetically. It’s not an excuse for addiction, but it’s somewhat of an explanation.

What?! I have never seen Downton, had no idea it featured BUM sex?!!!!!!

I kind of imagine her going a bit Ulrika, how UJ is now with her complete lack of filter when divulging details of her personal life on the gram.
Or she sticks with the sexy schtick and carries on presenting and interviewing as a saucier version of Mrs Merton
It's very sad, someone posted a pic with her, Michael and peaches altogether and it really brings it home how tragic it's been for them and their families.
Really hope the remaining three girls/ women are making happier lives for themselves

Sent to school the next day?
Where are the ‘beloved’ nannies & BFFs in all of this?
Duty of care at schools?
Beggars belief at the insensitivities & self-absorption of the adults in this privileged milieu.
That said, there is an interesting book out at the moment, Bodies by Ian Windwood.
Here’s his article in Telegraph: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/music/w...always-drugs-rock-n-roll-dream-almost-killed/
& review in the Gruniad: https://www.theguardian.com/books/2...Wy2EI4ZwcMsVqGATkDI1nS0_AQ2-St02PDmgdpHGzQ4fk
Just how elementarily duck’d up, substance dependent & financially exploitative the ‘Rock’n’Roll industry is - no surprise there, but IW spells it out.
Saint Bob of that parish & his R&R mateys are the survivors (some only just) & thrive of that thrash, somehow seeing the world through the eyes of young vulnerable girls is unlikely to occur as default.
Yes!! Mary had a foreign suitor who died in her bed. He “preserved her virtue” ie-bum sex!!
Wow! Saints preserve us! Whatever next?!
