Traitors Ireland star Páraic K says show's 'boys club' was 'turning my stomach' Páraic raised the question of there being a 'gender dynamic at play' after Aoife was roasted for her lack of emotion when Saoirse was murdered, but none of the guys were held to the same standard View 2 Images The banished Traitor Páraic K has lashed out at the 'lads, lads, lads' culture on this year's series The most recently banished Traitor Páraic K has lashed out at the 'lads, lads, lads' culture on this year's series of The Traitors Ireland, admitting it was 'turning [his] stomach' to see the guys treat female players differently. Monday night's episode of The Traitors Ireland was something to behold. Yet another Traitor was banished by the clever Faithfuls, leaving Carla in charge to recruit Aoife and together, the ladies will be tasked with carrying out a murder on the remaining vulnerable players tonight. So far in the series, there have been three murders, all of whom have been women and several of the players have raised the point both on the show, and following their exit, that there is a 'boys club' mentality of the guys protecting each other and leaving the girls to fend for themselves. Speaking to RSVP Live, Páraic raised the question of there being a 'gender dynamic at play' after Aoife was roasted for her lack of emotion when Saoirse was murdered, but none of the guys were held to the same standard. 'There just seems to be this channelling of really, really, severe accusations,' he said. 'I personally didn't think Aoife's reaction was all that bad, I feel like they're going into these micro expressions. It leaves me a question: is there a gender dynamic at play here?' 'There's never an expectation for male players to have particular emotional responses, in my view, but it seems that when a female player doesn't behave in a particular kind of way… There seems to be a script that women in the game are expected to follow, that the guys aren't meant to follow.

'I remember, in particular with Anna, I was kind of going, why aren't the guys looking inwards? It's just women getting killed. I don't understand this. And my logic with that was serial killers will never kill within their own profile, so I thought they would think it was women killing women, but obviously that didn't work out for me'. Speaking of Carla's move to recruit Aoife, who the Faithfuls already suspect as being a Traitor, as 'the 100% correct decision'. 'I would absolutely have done the exact same thing,' he says. 'If Carla had been banished and it was me still there, I would have gone for Aoife or Donal to throw under the bus. Carla's made a great game there, bringing in one of them would get her that little bit further. 'They're next on the table for the chop, in my view, they're getting the most heat. So if she pulls this off and pulls off a master stroke, she possibly might guarantee herself the Endgame. And by the way, by God, I hope she does.' The Traitors Ireland airs Sundays, Mondays and Tuesdays at 9.35 pm on RTÉ One and RTÉ Player. Article continues below Want to see more of the stories you love from RSVP ?
