    I wouldn't say "amusing" so much as "frustrating".

    Unfortunately yes. Caught the woman "who isn't equal to her husband" by mistake on the way back from Aldi. Nearly crashed the car. Yes, we're well doomed.

    Some valiant woman trying to make sense of her though, fair play :confused:

    And she sounded so young. You could almost understand if she was elderly. Imagine what her marriage must be like poor thing :(

    I dunno, she sounded thick as the proverbial s*** to me. I expect she's well matched with someone.

    I was trying not to remember, but I vaguely recall her bleating about "what happens when the child calls out for the mother during the night, and she's not there?". Seemed incapable of making out that children only call for their mothers when one is present in their lives. The way this one was going on, you'd swear the gheys were ripping them from their loving mothers arms, FFS.

    Ah, you've been on a deserted island, no net, no TV, no radio. OK, the Holy Islanders have been busy spreading their faith the past few days. If you haven't got a large whiskey by your side, don't scroll back for an update.

    Not specifically about gay marriage but very, very much about equality for gays in all spheres of life.

    From the video...
    12 years; the length by which life expectancy is shortened for gay, lesbian and bisexual people in highly anti-gay communities compared to accepting communities

    How is it reduced? Suicide? I know trans life is reduced very much even in supporting countries due to the mental issues so might not be the same on the lgb side, I would say Ireland is very open and very little here would kill themselves due to being gay and aids would not reduce the L female bi population.

    I would imagine it's the stress and high blood pressure of having to be equated with paedophiles and the like by fúcking bigots, y'know like.....

    Have you tried watching the video before commenting? By all means don't watch the video but in that case you are in no position to comment on it.

    I posted video at 22:56
    You replied at 23:02
    Video lasts 10 minutes.
    Does not compute.

    Why aren't priests life so low so, they are equated as paedophiles even more then the gays and receive more hate too.

    You were the only one here equating anyone to being a paedophile so excuse me while I put you on "ignore", dismiss your obvious Iona affiliation and ask you if you could please just go away.

    You just brought up the paedophile links, to the average person they link priests as paedophiles way more then gays, so if the link reduces life so much priests should be dieing way eailer then the gays.

    at least people defend the gays when the links are brought up, no defends the priests they just joke about it.

    Are you just pretending to completely miss the point?

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    ? No I didn't I asked why the life expectancy was a lower in a western country for gays, he brought up paedophiles, I countered it can't be that as priests are seen as paedophiles more then gays and it doesn't lower their life expectanc.

    Perhaps this is true but do you have any supporting evidence?
