Pride events take place this weekend across Ireland.

IN THE UNITED States, Gay Pride marches were triggered by the Stonewall Riots in 1969, which were a huge turning point for LGBTQ history.
After ongoing harassment by police, a group of LGBTQ people (who were predominantly transgender women of colour) took a stand at the Stonewall Inn in New York’s Greenwich Village.
Word spread throughout New York and the rioting patrons were soon joined in protest by over a thousand LGBTQ people.

Over the next two years, gay rights groups assembled and began to hold marches across America.
It wasn’t until over a decade later that in Ireland, on the morning of September 10th, 1982, the body of 31-year-old Declan Flynn was found in Fairview Park.
Declan was a gay man who had been beaten to death by a group of teenagers who had admitted to previously attacking at least twenty other gay men in the park in the six weeks prior.

The young men who murdered Declan Flynn believed that they had been vigilantes and that there was justification for the regular “queer bashing” sessions that they partook in for entertainment purposes in the park.
The Irish courts did not see the young men at fault.
The judge who dealt with the case said (at 31:00) that there was “no element of correction required” in the young men’s behaviour. They were handed suspended sentences and allowed to walk free. The very same year, someone received a one-year sentence for stealing a purse containing £20.36.
At the time, David Norris described this as giving people “a license to kill” members of the LGBTQ community.
The following year, Ireland’s first Gay Pride march was held in protest of the levels of violence against gay men and women in Ireland. 400 people marched from Liberty Hall to Fairview Park.
Today, Pride has drifted away from its meaningful political beginnings.
Gay Pride marches are now massively sponsored events with a huge corporate presence.

So much so that there was outrage last month when it emerged that there was no space left in London Pride for a Bisexual bloc. That’s right. No bisexuals at Pride. A day later it was rectified, but not until after London Pride had placed the blame on bisexual groups for not being organised enough.
Surely bisexual groups (50 of which were on the waiting list) should have space held for them and be prioritised over groups like ‘LGBTQ Supernatural Fans’. (Does anyone even watch Supernatural anymore?)
This is where the problems with today’s Gay Pride become particularly evident.

The presence of companies like Google, Facebook, Dropbox, Smirnoff and a serious handful of banks is overwhelming.
Pride events are seen simply as advertisement campaigns for these companies. Perhaps this wouldn’t be such an issue if they were doing anything at all in order to help LGBTQ people. In New York, sponsored events are charging up to $50 for admission. That’s simply just not what Pride is about.
A lot of people believe that companies openly associating themselves with the LGBTQ community are brave and radical. In this Burger King advertisement, young girls are moved to tears after Burger King presents them with a ‘Proud Whopper’.
What’s a ‘Proud Whopper’, you ask? It’s a normal Whopper, in a rainbow wrapper. It’s supposed to be a heartwarming way of saying that we’re all the same on the inside. People are literally crying over a hamburger because they find its wrapper inspiring.

What would be more empowering and inspiring would be for Burger King to have gender neutral bathrooms, donate money to homeless charities (homelessness disproportionately affects young LGBTQ people in America) or maybe campaign against the immense violence that transgender people face.
Wrapping a Whopper in some rainbow paper and selling it to gay people is neither radical nor beneficial to anyone (except Burger King’s revenue).

In Iceland, sponsors are not allowed to display logos at the country’s Pride march.
A third of the country’s population of 300,000 attend Reykjavik Pride annually. Advertisements are only displayed on the event’s website and in magazines to prevent commercialisation of Pride.
The event’s treasurer, Gunnlaugur Bragi Bjornsson said the goal is:
“to keep the focus on the cause, what we have achieved and what is yet to be won. [They do not want to] lose sight of their main goals; we believe it’s likely that corporate floats would outshine our important message”.
That’s one way of keeping space for bisexual people.
LGBTQ people in Ireland may have won same-sex marriage, but it’s only the beginning of solving the issues that our community faces.

Last month, days before the anniversary of the marriage referendum, The George was vandalised with homophobic graffiti. To straight people, this might seem like a bit of chalk and not a huge deal.
To LGBTQ people, it’s a reminder that there will always be people trying to undermine and attack spaces that are welcoming and safe. People still beat up LGBTQ peoplein Ireland regularly. I have little doubt that it doesn’t go on in every school in the country to some degree.

Last year in Orlando, Florida we saw 49 people get murdered for being LGBTQ. Pride needs to be more about standing up against violence to the LGBTQ community and less about LinkedIn handing out business cards to teenagers in the parade.
The presence of TERFs (Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminists) and SWERFs (Sex Worker Exclusionary Radical Feminists) is a huge issue for LGBTQ people and something that needs to be addressed.
You can’t be a feminist if you do not support the rights of all women. This includes sex workers and trans women.

Yet, there are plenty of lesbians and gay men who are openly transphobic and not supportive of sex workers’ rights. This is an issue that Pride should focus on before worrying about giving space to DropBox to hand out discount codes.
Gay Pride in Dublin should be in solidarity with Gay Pride in all of the countries where homosexuality is still illegal. It should be in solidarity with all of the countries where people put their lives on the line simply to march through a city openly identifying as LGBT.

Pride should raise awareness about HIV/AIDs (and how nearly 500 people a year are diagnosed with HIV in Ireland), and how to prevent the contraction of the disease with drugs like PrEP.

Gay Pride in Dublin should focus more on helping working class LGBTQ people who are still suffering because of austerity in Ireland.
We have a gay Taoiseach, we have a Pride festival full of corporate sponsors, but this country cares very little about LGBTQ people who are not good for the economy.
It’s time to change that.
Working Class Queeroes are a group that have set up a bloc at this year’s Pride in Dublin. They aim to mobilise a radical presence and re-politicise an otherwise commercial and politically sanitised event.
In other words, they want to strip Pride back to its roots. They are meeting at 1:15pm this Saturday for the parade for anyone who is sick of Pride being about Microsoft instead of real people.

@Paul Gallagher: I think people are annoyed by Tony because he seems to be smarter than the contributors taking him on. He doesn’t feel the need to insult you guys either, despite the insults getting flung at him which seems to get your guard up. Fair play to Tony.
@Paul Gallagher: or in the pub. Regardless Tony is undoubtedly an employee of TheJournal. For entertainment alone he deserves every penny of the wage they pay him and every thumbs up from his work colleagues in Meath, or wherever they are based these days.
Thanks Meekus. It is really decent of you to defend me but I don’t want you to make yourself personally unpopular.
My views are different. These views infuriate those who hold an orthodox perspective.
I’m relaxed about these attacks on me, many of them highly personalised.
It is perfectly natural and to be expected that the viewpoint which challenges the cost consensus will be strongly attacked. The person who expresses such divergent views will equally be attacked, if not more so.
@Meekus: Like your style , Although I hope Tony knows I don’t ”hate” him , or anyone else on here . I might not agree with a few comments , but we are all entitled to our opinions . And judging by Tonys’ prolific commenting , he’s not too bothered or put off , which is the way it should be .
@Meekus: it attracts bigots of all sorts Meekus. But that’s life. Tolerate those that are intolerant and lead by example. Bigots should be outed and shamed. You’ll find plenty of them on the Journal. Call them out on it.
@Tony Daly: like everything it takes time, things like this just further the cap some might not accept. Like women in job rolls most now would not question but some at the beginning did.
Gay people according to this article and the others that theJournal have posted seem to be suffering more than Yazidis or Christians in the Middle East.
@Pharmyco: well if bakers can be forced to write a message they disagree with then surely the pride parade can be forced to accept an entrant they disagree with…or is it only one group get to impose their opinions, views and beliefs on others?
@Beachmaster: Vehemently opposed to the RCC and it’s continuing role in our education, hospitals, sport etc. – notwithstanding their now acknowledged paedophilia, blankly denied for decades.
@Paul Foot: Jez, if it’s for that I would reckon you will have a full time job being opposed to everything from the past that still exists! What next, the milky bar kid!
@Tony Daly: interesting comments Tony in light of your intolerance of Catholics, the institutional RC church and those that believe that terminating life in the womb should be illegal. You should be more tolerant Tony and practice what you preach. Live and let live bud.
@Sean @114: I am tolerant of Catholics. I am a Catholic. I consider the institutional Roman Catholic Church to be an evil, pernicious and toxic agency, partly but not only because of its judgmentalism and hatred towards those people who happen to be gay because they are gay.
I oppose those who seek to impose compulsory incubation and forced birth on women, which I consider an abberation if the Roman Catholic Church caused by ideological adherence to irrational dogma.
On the overall nature of your comment, I recofnisevhow you conflate and confuse separate and different comment.
I see no need to be tolerant of the dogmatically intolerant who hosted fear, hate and prejudice.
@Tony Daly: ”I see no need to be tolerant of the dogmatically intolerant who hosted fear, hate and prejudice.”
I hope you remember that paragraph the next time you defend Islamic ideology . You seem to flip and flop on your intolerance .
@Sean @114: I mean oppose. They are entitled to their view, a view which they made into a Constitutional imperative, a view with which I adamantly disagree, but a view which they are entitled to express.
@Tony Daly: you didn’t answer the question directly Tony. Are you tolerant of them? Your narrative to date (many hundreds of posts) would strongly suggest no but I would be interested to receive a Yes or No answer.
@Sean @114: I am tolerant of their right to expression so long as these views are not an incitement to hate. I disagree with expressions of prejudice. That does not mean that expressions of prejudice should be banned. In that sense, I am tolerant, however firm my disagreement with such prejudiced views.
@Tony Daly: ok so you are half tolerant. A simple yes or no would have done but I will point you back to your previous comment Tony, practice what you preach bud.
@Minom Pnom: Gay Pride and Gay Liberation is now acceptable to corporate sponsorship but that does not detract from the value of and need for Gay Pride and Gay Liberation.
its about time the gays move on they got what then wanted they want to be equal yet they have the money making racket Pride remember it was Gay Pride for the hotels, bars with their flags every where why! they making themselves different, i heard today that a group representing gays didn’t like the work queer on some t shirts, yet they use that name sometimes to each other or worse, it seem they dont want to be equal but different! well girls/boys or what ever your having you are!!, there are more important things going on in this country, wait for the pink mist now!!
@Tony Daly: no it doesn’t it time to cop on and move on you got your so called right, I had to put with gay propaganda ie corporate responsibility for a week in my work I have no interest in gays or their life style if I want to be a proud straight I would be told to go back to work not a hope!
@Tony Daly: typical bull if you think about its your the lot with a chip, nothing is right for you, there a plenty of gays who just get on and don’t want this crap, its a typical answer for a liberal who want things their way if you don’t like it your racist or homophobic! so much for free speech.
So trolls like Tony Daly get to spam an article with 20+ comments but my single popular comment is deleted because it goes against the Journal narrative. Censorship alive and well. I expect this comment to last 10mins if it’s posted at all. Never mind I’m deleting this pathetic app. They won’t make money off my clicks anymore and the SJW can live in their little safe spaces all protected by mummy
@Tony Daly: wow Tony you really are a sad man living on the Journal all day commenting 20 times on every article for external validation. Enjoy your echo chamber.
The author states that the Stonewall was instigated predominantly by transwomen of colour. This is factually untrue. There is no recording of that weekend but the most meticulously researched account of the riots was written by David Carter in his 1990s book ‘Stonewall: the riot that sparked a revolution’. He interviewed hundreds of people who attended (or claimed to attend) that event. Backed up by the photographic evidence it was actually poor working class white men – with a good number of lesbians, drag queens and people of colour – who were the instigators.
This narrative that it was the trans community that started it is not backed by any evidence – it is only recently that this is gaining currency and is driven by a trans agenda not based on fact or evidence.
In London – the deadline for participation was advertised well in advance. It was widely known. The fact that no bi groups submitted on time is surely not the fault of LondoN Pride. Why did no bi group submit on time?
Since the gay and lesbian movement has welcomed every sexual minority into its fold there has occurred this sinister erasure of gay men and lesbians from the movement.
Pride does need to return to its roots. Trans people and ‘queer’ people (queer remains a homophobic hate slur irrespective of whether millennials have decided to reclaim it) have decided that gay people and lesbians are no longer welcome in the movement that they started.
This is unacceptable.
Gender identity and sexual orientation are separate issues. It is time to separate them.
@Meekus: in fairness, he knows that what he says will make him popular. That is what Ed Byrne wants and needs. I’m happy to let him play to the gallery.
@Tony Daly: indeed they are and ALL should celebrate it. Why categorise the day based on sexual orientation(s) when it could be a Freedom for All day? We should all celebrate liberty. Rename this liberty day. Be gone with the separatist rainbow flags, let’s all march under the same banner as a show of solidarity between the various shades of sexual orientation Let’s be one!
@Sean @114: suppressed, oppressed and discriminated against minorities are entitled to keep up the movement for liberation and acceptance. It is a combination of freedom of assembly and freedom of expression. It has my full support. Visibility promotes acceptance. Stonewall deserves to be celebrated and memorialised.
@Tony Daly: I suppose the premise is that all of these afflictions apply to the LGBTQ community only. The fact is that they apply to many outside of it and on that basis alone there could be a LGBTQ-like march everyday for different sections of society yet these people just get on with life.
@Sean @114: I don’t think that the LGBTQ community would seek to assert a monopoly of disadvantage and discrimination. There are other disadvantaged communities. In time, they too will start to achieve parity of esteem.
@Tony Daly: I just don’t think they feel such a strong and insatiable need to express victimhood Tony and there is no commercial driver either. Pride is the summer St Patricks day.
Why does the gay politicos feel the need to justify there lifestyle by constantly promoting the gay propaganda machine.Two million people did not vote for gay marriage . The politicos in the gay community should re visit their history and see the result of promoting the gay lifestyle and how it ends. The silent majority become radicalised by a right wing leader, transgender toilets promote homophobia. The easiest way to radicalise the Muslim youth, is by promoting homosexuality, for many it remains a despicable act. Extremists on both sides will find common ground , so the next time you promote transgender toilet spare a taught for the one that’s fastening his suicide belt, and ask yourself , why.
@michael k: you seek to demonise and scapegoat a valid and legitimate sexual orientations and gender identities by offering them as the root cause of and provocation Jihadist terrorist attacks. That is shameful.
@Tony Daly:
It’s 2017, all civilized societies have recognized gay rights, particularly Ireland which the recently became the first country globally to afford same sex marriage as a constitutional right, the highest office in the land is held by a gay man, gay people are free to do as they please in any aspect of life in a modern democracy without fear of hindrance with the full weight of the law behind them yet staggeringly the argument for Pride still presents itself as a noble one seeking to break down societal barriers of exclusion.
It’s not convincing.
San Francisco is probably the most gay friendly city on the planet yet the gay community still celebrate Gay Pride as if they were an oppressed grouping. Seems an irrational stance on the face of it.
Maybe the real and pertinent question around Gay Pride now is ‘Is it time to abandon it?’.
You highlighted a differentiation between marches for ‘true love and pride’ and marches based on triumphalism.
Given that the gay community now enjoy full equality as citizens here and abroad one could argue that Gay Pride without any specific political goals left to achieve has merely become another triumphalist march occupying the public square.
I have noticed a philosophical divide emerging between older gay groups who put themselves on the front line in an era when being gay was actually an oppressive experience not a merely a question of which costume to don at this year’s festival and the modern gay youth who are the inheritors of that political effort. The older ones often even harken back to that era and the existential vitality experienced in the struggle.
The youth merely ask ‘Here we are now – entertain us’
@Tommy Browne: the people didn’t put our gay leader in it was his party did, also only for the people who left this country during the worst recession only to come back for gay marriage it would not have past, the same people who fecked off again and left the rest of us to get this country back to recovery
Will there be Muslim men and women participating in the parade. Hopefully, yes, Go and enjoy yourselves! Lose that
Irrelevant religion, and for once, be true to yourself and those around you.
Do not label yourself. You are worth more than that.
Nb. Be careful when travelling to Muslim countries; keep your sexuality to yourselves. You have NO rights there.
