Mr Ireland Wayne Walsh blasts double standards after claiming that female fans ripped his clothes off in night club
Mr Ireland told yesterday how he was mauled by female fans and had to be rescued by bouncers.
Wayne Walsh revealed the incident in a nightclub was “the most uncomfortable few minutes of my life”.
And he said if the same thing had happened to a Miss Ireland model “there would have been a court case”.
The 27-year-old, a finalist in Mr World in the Philippines tonight, added: “Women are always talking about equality this and equality that [but] I was at an event in a dancehall full of women.
“I was walking through and two bouncers had to come and rescue me.
'The women had taken my blazer off and were trying to take off my buttons.
“If that had happened to Miss Ireland in a pub full of men, there would have been a court case.
“Because I’m a man they thought, ‘Sure he only loved it’.
“They were middle-aged women who I don’t know, it was the most uncomfortable few minutes of my life. There’s so much equality when it comes to so many things but when it comes to male models there’s no equality, we’re seen as eye candy.”
The personal trainer, who is in the final 12 out of 70 contestants after winning the extreme sports challenge, said the competition was sexist against men.
He added: “There’s a swimwear section, at the end of the day the caption they use here is it’s Mr World, the world’s most desirable man. But there’s a small bit of
inconsistency there, we can’t have 30 women in bikinis for Miss World but we can have the lads up there in their swimwear.
“To me I don’t see a whole lot wrong with it, when you post topless pictures, it just comes with the industry.
“There’s a bit of a disparity there, the one thing I will say is that for young women they’re a lot more self-conscious.
“A lot of guys who go in for these pageants they’re in the gym seven days a week, here at Mr World the guys are only dying to get their tops off to show off their physiques.
“There’s the macho side to the men doing it.”
