Speaking for myself and a few close friends we tend to just go "meh". If someone's parents were both Irish then that's not too bad or even their granparents, what is a pain is when Americans say "oh my great grandmother on my fathers side was Irish, so im Irish too" and despite their claim to be Irish couldn't even tell you that Ireland is in Europe, that kind of statement tends to drive some of us crazy. But people who actually know somthing about Ireland and have strong links to the people over here are fine, i don't mind calling them as Irish-American since their not ignorant of the culture of Ireland and are American so hence Irish American. Just my 2 cents.

How did the Irish think of movements for Irish dancing?

When the British invaded Ireland in the 1900s & 1800s, they forced the Irish to stick to British culture and not do jigs and Irish Dances. The British would peak in Irish people's home windows to see iof anyone was Irish dancing. The Irish would hold their arms tight & straight against their sidesn and gently moved their feet. Through the windows, all British couyld see was a stiff standing person, but below the window view, those Irish legs were skipping and flying.
