I tried to phrase that in many different ways so as not to say âtodayâ for exactly that reason.
I would say that todayâs society is less homophobic than 50 years ago. I would also say that homophobic attitudes change from not understanding to understanding yet hating.

What about the poor lads having to grow up as homosexuals in the homophobic world of today? It is much tougher on them.[/quote]
Well they did choose to be homosexuals their father did not choose to have 2 homo sexual sons.
To be the receiver in a gay act was considered heinous in Ancient Rome, but being the giver was seen as ok.
TS, you are well informed. Podcast or book?

I knew that!
I would disagree on the hating word and use fearing instead.

Itâs just Julio covering his homophobia. Itâs a retarded comment, and as you say, itâs about the lads.
What was the outlook on reacharounds?
Amongest all this you pulled out the father as being the one who itâs tough on.
I presume you are taking the piss so Iâll leave that there.
It was mentioned in a book I read. Think Julio Ceasar had been accussed of being the receiver in such an act early in his life and the allegations dogged him throughout his political career, before he was ultimately stabbed to death.
@caoimhaoin , DOG does speak very highly of his da in the book and said that he knew it affected him the most, I would know his da and he is as a sound a man you could meet, but shur thatâs how it is,
His mother and sister stopped going to games after Tipp in Semple stadium in 2009, for obvious reasons
Fuck the lads, oh waitâŚ
I was merely commenting in passing that itâd be tough for any father to have two gay sons, I didnât say it wasnât tougher on the lads themselves, in fact the toughest part of the whole lot as a father is knowing how difficult it would be for your sons.

less homophobic today ??..its almost fashionable to be gay now !..
Same as modern prison so. Fucking pussies is for queers so the saying goes.
The comment reminded me of a comment made by a relation of mine when we were discussing a girl from home who became pregnant at 18 and was unmarried.
âAw think of her poor mother. And she is so religious. This will devastate herâ.
Her husband interrupted with âNever mind the mother!! She will just have to wake up and realise that this is the modern world we live in. Think of the poor girl more so. It is her who will have to live with the consequences of it.â
Never a truer word spoken.
