The LGBTQWEYHJSHGKDKLMNIY+%@%#!^&$*÷^#?(×^÷* is a globalist agenda. I think Ireland would be even more progressive if we did our thing and rejected these agendas which strive to take away anything unique or induvidual plenty of countries haven't bowed down to this nonsense and you wouldn't call them backward.

george soros, amirite?

When did I mention George Soros? All I'm saying is gays should keep their sexuality to themselves not go around banging the LGBT drum you know just like straight people don't push their straightness down gays throats.

Straight people don't get beaten up for being straight, they can hold hands walking down the street unlike gay people.

If a straight pride happened, it'll be filled with male "masculine offended" marchers which in irony would like a gay march (perhaps they finally show their sensitive side! :pac:)

This is a genuine question, and I hope I'm not derailing the thread. Someone asked similar earlier and it was just dismissed.

Why do the LGBTQ community regularly show such strong support for Islam and Muslim groups. Even though Islamic views on homosexuality range from "its sinful" on the moderate scale to "hang them from buildings" on the radical scale.

I genuinely don't understand it.

Me either

Have you made your anti-Pride religious protest poster yet? Have you chosen the colours, remember to leave out the rainbow colour! :rolleyes:

Do you go out of your way to look to be oppressed or something? :pac:

“Pride month” is nothing more than the promotion of a particular political viewpoint, fcukall to do with being lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender. As I’ve told you before, I used to be involved in organising Pride parades, but when I didn’t agree with their politics any more, I no longer wanted to be involved.

As it happens, I actually don’t know that many people who have any interest in political rallying masquerading as a Pride event these days, it’s just another tacky effort to sell tacky merch like flegs and feather boas to people who are into that sort of thing. I wouldn’t assume that people by virtue of their sex, sexual orientation or gender share a hive mind, any more than I would assume people who are religious are all bigots. As your post demonstrates there are many ways in which people are bigots.

Seven colours in the rainbow btw, which is why the rainbow was chosen as a symbol of the political movement - meant to imply acceptance of all people, not just those of a certain political bent.

So this is just gonna turn into another Muslim thread I take it? Like the gay women on the bus one.

That's not my intention, I asked a simple question that should hopefully have a simple answer. There was no gay-bashing and no Muslim-bashing in the question and I wouldn't expect any in the reply.

And the vast majority that go around beating up gays are Muslims

Well it wasn't my intention, but I may have opened the door for others...

Apologies. I was genuinely curious.

I’m waiting for the straight month to celebrate. Anyone know when that is??

You can have one of these if you like...

Is this for a month, annually?

would it bother you if it was?

That's all well and good... But a fooking month of it??

A Saturday afternoon was more than adequate in this day and age IMHO.

you know you are not obliged to do anything, right? it could on for a year and it would make **** all difference to your life so why moan about it?

Only since companies realised they could make some money from it

Most people only do something the weekend of the parade and most of those events are the Friday or Saturday

That's excellent news One Eyed Jack that you've turned a corner and won't be holding up your protest sign at the Pride, it makes me as a LGBT ally not to look out for you on the day! Strangely I have never met you in the organising sphere of Dublin Pride(assuming you are in the big schmoke )

Not sure what you on about on the political front but i'd agree that there is uneasy tension within the community about corporates taking over Pride full of non-LGBT marchers(while ignoring disabled access) plus the recently separate Trans Pride to get away from the corporate takeover.
