Gay pride 2018 (James Chimney)
Meanwhile…
There’s always one.
Earlier: Changing of The Guard
Saturday: Pride In Appearance
Meanwhile…
This year at @DublinPride, we had the proudest bus in the parade, not because it had the most glitter or flags, because it had the proudest people, Proud Dads. Gwan ahead and warm the cockles of your heart. #DBPride #ProudDads pic.twitter.com/m4wNYMdiKs

That guy with the sign was outside the church on Church St — totally on his lonesome. LOL. I don’t think anyone even bothered to argue with him, from what I saw — he was just too pathetic. There were also four older types praying the gay away, kneeling in front of the cross.
He was moved on by the guards on Kevin Street.
But enough about him – there was a great atmosphere in town on Saturday for pride. Hurrah!
Yes and the guy in the S&M gear walking around like that on the day with in your face attitude most probably in front of children only down grades LGBT to a sleazy place
I actually found it quite offensive and only pushes the anti gay agenda of those that carry placards like yet man
To be respected one must act with respect and not use the day to get your jollies
That is confined to the bed room
WOOP! WOOP! IT’S THE SOUND OF THE TONE POLICE WOOP WOOP!
We are getting closer to a normal society. Keep going!!! What a positive expression of life.
It is all good. Pride is a great festival. A great way to celebrate and be proud of who you are, whatever that means to you.
The heat in that pig face must be stifling. No wonder they’re protesting.
I know I probably shouldn’t have
But yeah
An’ out thru the nostrils n’all
please move on from this over indulgence. Get on with your lives.
back into the closet with them, eh?
See SOQ’s comment below. See also: the various people who have been assaulted leaving the George in the last year alone.
we’re here, we’re queer, get over it.
Didn’t know you were gay Star, hope you had a good Pride :)
Bi actually – but thanks Clamps :)
Why would you?
You new? :)
Is that a typo, or did you mean new, and not knew?
No, I did not know that this person is gay, how or why would I? (see my original question)
No, I am not new (assuming you mean reading/posting on here). Pretty much here since it began. But not sure why it is relevant.
I feel a bit sorry for Topsy, it can’t be easy being miserable all the time.
exhausting I’d imagine
I didn’t think it was even possible, but most of those photos have made me even more straight. Straight a warp speed.
Howayeh Shane…..

You’d want to be careful. If you look too closely at them for too long, you’ll catch gay.
You know that song ‘big gay heart’ Daisy?
I have an idea for a comedy sketch where a man’s man goes in for a heart transplant and comes out screaming. Ok it’s a literal interpretation but it would be very funny.

” even more straight”
You seem a bit unsure about your sexuality.
seems it, doesn’t it?
i’d guess what he wants to say is that looking at those pictures has given him a simmering semi and an intense curiosity to try out a bit of gayness
would you take him under your wing, soq?
Def not BB, I don’t do ‘srt8 curious’. You see them on the sites and apps, for years and years. I mean what does it take to be no longer curious and just be plain bisexual?
Seems very intolerant.
Route should have been more central though. I was in town and couldn’t find it until looking up a map and having a rather long walk.
You were too early for the pope. Wrong route?
We met a straight Turkish couple in the evening and she had just came from the airport to be there. They were hoping for the best next day in Istanbul but unfortunately, that is not how it turned out. They actually used rubber bullets, tear gas and water cannons against the marchers ffs. I am not trying to be at all negative by posting this, just pointing out the contrast between the two events and how hard won freedoms can be.

How did your man survived the heat wearing the black dog head gimp mask thing?
Maybe that’s what he’s into… sweating behind a mask…
Not for me tho
Because his mistress told him to do it maybe?
I did LOL :)
Please tell your man Chimney its not GAY Pride.. its LGBTI Pride. grrrr
What about all the other letters!
No madam, it is just Pride now because the amount of srt8s was at an all time high. And they should be proud too, proud to support the rest of us. Earlier in the day at Smithfield we met two married srt8 women from Longford. They parked the husbands in the house with the kids and came up to have a bit of craic…. and why not?
Hope you had a good day?
Can somebody explain the use of the pig mask? I’m a bit baffled.
Kinky sex, domination, asphyxiation ?
And i didn’t even use spell check for that last one :)
Thanks Clampers, just looked it up on the Urban Dictionary…there’s alot more to it than you or I may have imagined.
A gold star for your spelling :)
@dublinbusnews
You cancelled nearly all buses from the Tallaght area into town on Pride day except you couldn’t be arsed even updating your info screens / app. The service is dreadful in the first place but if you want to transport ‘precious’ LGBT to and from an event then at the very least; inform them when scheduled services are not available
Then run cuddly ads.
Should have cancelled all buses.
There is a cure for that you know, its called compassion.
Vodafone.Why bend over for a Telecoms company.Why!?
Is it just me or does that fella in the first picture look very like Chris Wylie, the Cambridge Analytica whistle blower?
