Grant to study city's Irish gays
« on: March 27, 2008, 01:11:02 PM »
Now I am all for scientific research but of what use is this?

A university has been given £82,000 of taxpayers money to examine experiences of Irish homosexuals living in London.

Sociologist Roisin Ryan-Flood, leading the project, said: "By exploring the relationship between sexuality, ethnicity, and migration, the study will uncover the ways in which contemporary sexual citizenship, migration and LGBT imaginaries of the metropolis are mutually implicated in complex ways."

It means they want to find out if some Irishmen come to the big city and feel compelled to use the back door or if they come to the big city BECAUSE they prefer to use the back door but cannot at home.  ::)







Honestly ~ do I have to explain everything around here.

But when mixed (Mickst?!) with a Home Counties chap, they are Ben Dover and Phil McCaverty..

Anyway, back to my network problems. BT should all be eviscerated and then burned in a pool of their entrails.
