Delighted to see you posting the bootboy pieces again. Also delighted to see someone writing about intersex – such a ridiculously taboo topic in many circles.

Life is full of HARSH REALITIES, including those called MISconceptions. The word PEDOPHILE is defined as ‘child love’. Just because some young person had a first kiss from a man, and chose to to tell a documentarian about it, then was brave enough to share the rest of his experience, does not categorize him or his male lover as a Pedophile. If one is too inhibited to view such stories without being biased, and is unable to walk a mile in another mans shoes for a few minutes without hurling insults, then he better begin to look DEEP WITHIN to see why the BULLY WITHIN is crying out so LOUDLY.

B. Calm down, we are all entitled to our opinions, and this is not a clear-cut case.

C. It is fair to challenge the anonymous views of the inexplicably livid.

Cheer up Joe!

B. How naive and retarded can you be? Anyone can see that Cathal is a fucking pedo. Thanks for embarrassing the community with your weak apologetics.

C. If you were as confident on these issues I believe you are, I find it strange that you’d need to investigate whether I use a phone, or a computer, or whether I use broadband (notwithstanding the fact that an IP address/device does not necessarily equal a user). Considering your defence of Cathal and Tony’s remarks, I’m not surprised you’re such a deviant and sick person. Self hating gays like yourself, who whether conscioously or not, sabotage the community should be shot for their regrssive mindset.  If you weren’t such a pompous little pseudointellectual hack writer, you’d see that.

You’ve followed this blog on your computer on broadband, and on your mobile phone, and yet you say you don’t have an email address? Forgive me if that’s hard to believe, or if I suggest that your arguments are lacking credibility as a result.

I’m just interested in the truth of people’s lives. I’ve not been dishonest, nor has Tony, (nor indeed has Cathal Ó Searcaigh, I believe, after meeting him for that one interview.)

Loving truth is not the same as hating a particular community. Indeed, how can you not love a particular community without accepting and respecting people’s truth?

So, your truth please, if you wish to continue dripping shame and embarrassment all around you. Who you are, and why you feel it’s OK to snipe and sneer anonymously instead of coming out and standing over your insinuations.

Have you something to be ashamed of? I don’t, and neither does Tony. It’s his life, his experience, and he’s made his peace with himself.
