Daithi O’Se launching the 2018 Rose of Tralee festival
“If you look at the Rose of Tralee from the beginning, there was a set of rules from the first day and those rules have changed as the years went on.
“The Rose of Tralee has always been forwarding thinking, say for example there was a time where if you had a child you weren’t allowed to enter, that changed a good few years ago.
“Trans women in the Rose of Tralee; I just can’t wait to get the first trans woman up on stage because it’s going to be great fun.
“It’s about being inclusive, we’re all here together, it’s a very safe place and it’s a good fun, happy place to be,”
Daithi O’Se Speaking to RTÉ Entertainment at today’s Rose of Tralee festival launch.

hahah excellent
What is a woman, Daithi?
Will they have to call the cis contestants menstruaters now?
I saw an email circulated within the public sector recently (this week) that referred to “those who menstruate”.
Isn’t there a word for Trans “women” ? Oh what was it again… oh yes: Men. Or in this case, Autogynephile (AGP) males…
Yet another disgraceful sacrifice of women’s rights at the alter of AGP “Trans” inclusion.
…..Nigel incoming…..
Nigel left the band, Giddy, we shan’t be working together again.
Awwwww
We used to call them cross dressers in my day.
…is that like Angry Birds?
That was Transvestism, RB, it’s entirely different now, some professors of Gender-Fluid Studies in a Californian university have investigated it, by reading some incomprehensible gobbledygook by Judith Butler & declared it all changed, changed utterly.
Ireland is a Progressive Country now, we’ve had an American Lesbian Witch and Roderick O’Connor, a bloke with friends who are apologists for paedophilia, working away at their weird obsession of making all our kids’ school toilets “Gender Neutral”, all at taxpayers’ expense. Money well spent, I’m sure you’ll agree.
I identify as Transvaccinated- I am not vaccinated as such but my rights should be respected.
I can’t wait for The Rose of Tralee
And this wide range of girls for to see:
Trans, Cis and non-Binary
Decked out in their finery
Who’d have thought it could be so PC.
:-D
Could be a drawback though.
Women need to realise that a Trans Woman, waving her dick around in front of your 12-year-old daughter, in Penny’s changing rooms is not the same thing as some bloke in a dress, waving his dick around in front of your 12-year-old daughter, in Penny’s changing rooms.
Any bloke doing that is a sick weirdo.
Daithi really is the epitome of Paid Goonery.
You can’t try on underwear in penneys
*Clamper’s head explodes.
“The Rose of Tralee has always been forwarding thinking, say for example there was a time where if you had a child you weren’t allowed to enter, that changed a good few years ago”
Ah yes, 2008, a distant time back when the notion women’s equality had barely been conceived in Ireland. But then came The Rose of Tralee trailblazing the way with a change in the rules, allowing unmarried mothers to participate. If that’s not a great example of forward(ing) thinking, I don’t know what is.
This is a remarkably unpleasant thread.
My comment got deleted? Is it not ok to be a little critical of the posted topic and general tone of the comments? Seems a bit like censorship to me non?
Par for the course with Broadsheet these days.
I don’t comment too.much here anymore, site is now a spreader of hate.
You can sort of rely on these sorts of threads to bring out all the gimps
