    Rory O'Neil looking like a bad joke on television.

    I'd take him more seriously if he made a dignified appearance.

    Dignity is measured in much more than appearance and that man has an amazing dignity in spades.

    Why,it's his choice as to how he wants to look?

    Also, he doesn't look as orange as Miriam does.

    A collar and a tie like seanie fitz or a charvet shirt like Charlie perhaps........

    I think he's being just however he wants to be, and trying to accept people just as they are, I take him all the more seriously for that.

    Grand, let him dress as he wishes but he is representing a cause on national television and is, in my view, undermining it by appearing in ridiculous fake boobs.

    Proud day.

    Since Sinn Fein misjudged public opinion over the Royal visit, Gerry really is keen to be associated with any queen he can find.

    Where can you find the break down of results in individual constituency? I'd like to get an idea of how my own area voted within Cork NC

    Good mad David norris lol all the Brits fault

    Everything he said is historically accurate.

    No prohibition against homosexuality in Gaelic Ireland - those laws were introduced by Henry VIII...

    Different ways of looking at it.

    For me, this enhances the cause, as for me (and I'd imagine many more) the cause is about much more than just whether homosexual people can marry, and part of the cause is accepting people just as they are.

    Good man, Rory, you dress however you like, it will never take anything away from the important message for me.

    I'm glad the country voted YES, at least from now on the Gay Community won't be able to play the poor victim card anymore. They'll have to let that go, and about time aswell.

    Because as we all know, those who dress in suits always act in a dignified manner

    Well it's normal for victims of discrimination to stop being victims when discrimination ends.

    Great day to be Irish and bad day for the bigots.


  • Registered Users Posts: 959 ✭✭✭maringo


    Someone should tell David Quinn that it WAS a free vote. The Irish people have come out massively and voted freely to give equal rights on marriage to all whether he likes it or not. :P

    Meath West 60.1% Yes vote.

    So f***ing happy with that, especially being a bisexual teen from that constituency.

    As a straight 30 year old I'm happy my fellow Royals said yes.

    Nobody knows how they got in there. They just appeared, magically miraculously.
