Sex Instructions for Farmers by Charles Mcsherry
Sex Instructions for Farmers is a light-hearted guide to finding and keeping love for that stalwart of the Irish rural community – the bachelor farmer. This man, while a prince behind his plough, who can freely discuss international problems, wilts before the female form. First published in 1980, chapters include sage advice on how to ‘prepare the soil’, how to sow the seeds of a fruitful relationship and how to reap the bounty from his labours. Filled with pearls of wisdom, such as ‘bottom pinching is unsporting’ and ‘the practice of changing one’s socks once a month will in future be regarded as insufficient’, this humorous piece of nostalgia may still prove useful to some modern men!
Charles McSherry was born in Dublin in 1930 and was educated at Blackrock College. He spent seventeen years as an actor in Dublin and touring Ireland and Britain, before settling in Limerick. Many of his poems and short stories were published in magazines and newspapers, and he won the top award in the Humourous Essay section at Listowel Writers' Week in 1979 and 1980.
