We came a long way, then turned 90 degrees and went up another path even more terrible. I'm so ashamed that I voted in favour of "marriage equality", which relies on the premise that unmarried people should be discriminated against.

My mother from Mayo, in her 90's now, Mentioned a neighbouring farm, just up the road when telling a story. An old bachelor who was often seen dressed in woman's clothes when out and about on the farm. Arah she said, a lot of those old bachelors and spinsters were fierce eccentric.
I grew up in Ireland in the '70s. Up our 'terrace' there were same sex couples living together. No one ever talked about it. Not sure what people, including my parents, actually thought about the subject.
@@colin4958 Every town and village always had gay people in every line of work. People knew they were gay and they were not blacklisted by their communities.

The irony being a huge number of priests were gay compared to the general population.
They are still like that in Northern Ireland, only this week Foster said she was ousted from the DUP because she planned to abstain (not even vote against) from a vote banning Conversion Therapy.

These ordinary people don't have the vocabulary to dissect the issues here, and they are groping around in the dark trying to discuss this complex moral issue. They make a perfect target for this kind of Struggle Session, to be deconstructed, and picked off one by one. It's shocking how the people who created this obvious propaganda have been so utterly successful in turning the most obvious moral issues on their heads. There are serious answers to these questions and you can find them if you seek out the right people. The point of this TV program was to ridicule normal everyday people as a way of overturning the protections society has put on antisocial behaviour whether it's this carry on, or alcoholism, or thieving, or whatever kind of vice it is. Shameful to read the comments here. You lot have absolutely no clue what happened in the 20th century. Staggering ignorance
Yeah, but now it’s gotten too far to the point of us you can identify as as anything and it’s now a crime to say that they’re not us. It’s ridiculous now. 0
@@DL10663 no you can identify now whatever you want and then if someone says anything to you it’s now considered a hate crime. It’s ridiculous whatever about being gay or straight but then people are on 1 million labels onto things and we have to put up with it.
@@SmcdMcd-d2k people don’t identify whatever they want. Some people identify as male, some female and others gender neutral. That’s it. I don’t see the problem with this. Some people are very feminine, some very masculine. What’s the problem? It’s not a negative.
LOL some people identify as a tree or a cat or a dog. I saw a grown man with 5 children identifying himself a 5 year old little girl. And even places that grown men go to so they can wear a nappy. So yeah , people are now identifying as many many things now actually
"It's not really a difficulty". Wow, Brenda is unbelievably stable in a time and space that must have been hell to her.

How times have changed!
"You don't know what they're going to do next" lol
Are you involved in any conversations today that will be equally embarrassing from future perspectives?
Fair play to the 2 brave gay people for facing that barrage of ignorance and stupidity. And for the Kajagoogoo girl sticking up for them 👏
jesus christ, we have come on a long way from these attitudes thank fuck.

Was thinking the same thing

Mentioned a neighbouring farm, just up the road when telling a story.

Your parents had deep reservations about it all. I guarantee.

You wouldn't have known about it.

Would love to know what their opinions are today as times have changed so much .

How many roads must a man walk down, before you may call him a man?
Seventeen.
Ireland is not like that now (unless you're gay in a small town or village in the middle of nowhere).
Some places in Kerry could still be quite homophobic.
I don’t remember this episode of brass eye?
She's right...if you don't understand it you slag it to cover up for your own ignorance and hope it'll go away
"Is it a genetic difficulty"... 😂😂😂😂😂

Feel silly asking but is that Charlie bird?

They should have interviewed the bull Mick daly about this subject. He has some good informative videos on Utube about these people
Lol

The good old days
Yes, when you would get treated like dirt for simply liking someone of the same gender, very good!
being gay is okay
Id like to go back to these times.
Get working on your time machine so!
