Yup one of those I’m very busy at the moment but will be back with you shortly posts – with more on Sean Power our junior minister for ‘equality if you are not a lesbian or gay parent’, and Brian Lenihan – Minister for forthoming inJustices but who get’s invited to openings of envelopes…and then there are the overseers/warlords of discrimination- the Green Party.
Anyways…go have a look at…
- White, male, Irish, middleaged and able bodied…this poor diddums is feeling aggrieved (nay discrminated against!)
- Some Lesbian Phone sex – really…. go on you know you want to!!! (Oh now I think the google searches…sigh)
- I wish I could say go read Beaut.ie (been buying a bit of make up meself recently shock horror!) but anyway their host company got a dose of the willies (oh that is rather beautiful – I’m keeping it) and as for the Indo and the rubbish they are printing all week – from someone who has had the indo hanging around my site digging and nicking stuff I can only add sure they have bloggers working for them for free anyway!!!
Did Beaut.ie’s host pull the plug over the Indo allegations? Or did someone trip over a wire?
As a South Park fan (yup I know) I’m giggling cos your post reminds me of Officer Barbrady… “Move along der people there’s nothing to see…” [it is in the genes?]
But one link (above) did resonate with me…
Had a good laugh at “Diddums”: he has to stop speaking for men and speak as one (did I get Liz Stanley’s dictum right?) He needs to take himself off from his ivory tower of Economics 101 to one of the many men’s groups around Ireland and see how marginalised men are impacted (they’re heterosexual, single, married/ divorced, straight and gay,able-bodied and disabled, etc. etc) but left in long term unemployment/ shitty jobs, poor housing, in either rural isolation or in crappy urban housing estates like Ballybeg in Waterford. Before anyone jumps on me… men in general are privileged in Irish society over women and over minorities, but within the category of men, there are masculinities who are also deprived. CSO stats and a dodgy analysis, plus a misguided belief that if “it’s only 2% who are gay etc. its not inequality, it is just a few poofs” doesn’t highlight that!
I’ll go somewhere else to froth at the mouth about Fianna Glas so….
The lesbian phone sex clip was hilarious. Can’t wait to explain that one to the accountability (i.e. anti porn) software on my brother’s laptop.
I was told during the week by one of the lgb community’s leaders (the kind who need to catch up with us because they are our leader) that great store should be attached to the movement over the weekend of 29 November, evident in the details of what Seán Power said (on-script) to the NLGF and what Brian Lenihan said (off-script) to GLEN.
I see straw clutching, dear people, straw clutching.
Have you seen this Maman Poulet? Ditto people?

Yes I and lots of bloggers have seen it Sean. Hoping that she get’s it sorted soon – She shouldn’t have to go to her TD – ..but I’m glad she has. Also her GP is a bit lax on the raising hell bit.
