    In 1993 Ireland was forced to change its law against homosexual acts by the EU in what can only be regarded as a vicious vile attack on national sovereignty. Now it appears that homosexuality is totally acceptable across society- when exactly did this happen?

    It was accepted by most decent people in the South long before the EU made the government change it. The EU done us a favour by forcing the religious bigots to change the laws.

    Demanding human rights, a vile attack on sovereignty? I cordially invite these vicious overlords to run the country. :cool: In all seriousness though, there's nothing wrong with being gay hence it being socially acceptable

    Based on your posting history you do...... In fact, your belief that they have a problem is evidence of it.

    In northern Ireland it is still not widely acceptable on both sides of the divide.

    Derry is the "gay bashing" capital of the UK- not that such activity should in anyway be supported but you could argue that it is a natural human reaction to people flaunting a perversion such as we are supposed to be discussing, certainly more natural than treating it as if it was the same as love between a man and a woman.
