This is Ireland, CE.

Fucking Ireland. . . .

A devoutly religious country.

Times are changing.

Hardcore religious types don't typically care for gay people, I imagine.

If he does become prime minister, he will be the second gay prime minister he world has seen.

The first being Luxembourg's prime minister.

Oh

My

God

Who fucking cares?

Are we going to have to deal with a headline story of every single unprecedented first gay person to do something?

As long as they're qualified and don't hit pause during the middle of diplomatic talks to say "Oh, and by the way, Chancellor, I'm gay" every chance they get, then let them do their job like the rest of us.

I always find it hilarious that the people who scream and cry, "who cares!" are always the ones who seem to care the most.

I can see why you really respect Russia's conservative views

A gay PM in Ireland would be a pretty big deal considering how traditional and religious the general population is in

Where do we draw the line?

We already have gay athletes, politicians, doctors, and teachers, etc. Me thinks that's equal opportunity already at its essence. The more we go "The first gay _______ does this!" the more it seems like like they're this massive anti-gay conspiracy. I live in Texas, and there are gay people everywhere.... and we don't give a fuck. They pay taxes and do the same shit straight people do. Whoopdidoo.

Not sure if joking or just really..... yeah.

You've obviously been living under a rock, so here you go, buddy: https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2017/05/15/texas-bills-lgbt-rights-bathroom-bills/101633302/

To say nothing of all the anti-gay violence and murder that takes place in your state.

For Ireland this is a big step.

This is a country where for the better part of 50 years, dudes ran around in ski masks blowing up buildings because of Religion.
