THE BT OF GAY DUBL
One day when we were playg the park, one of the olr kids told that we better not enter at night bee there were “rent boys” and “gay men”. By the time I was The Gee watchg the film, I was a long-standg, fully-fledged lbian unr no illns about cisg culture and “rent boys” or even “gay men”. I assumed, although we never discsed , that many of my gay iends had cised.
The sndal was a plex and long-nng se which began after William O’Brien, the Natnalist MP and edor of Uned Ireland newspaper published several articl accg Cornwall and Jam Ellis French, Director of the Detective Department of the Royal Irish Constabulary, of beg homosexual. The ensug trials acced Cornwall, French and Kirwan of solicatn and buggery as well as three gay brothel owners of buggery and “keepg disorrly rooms”.
The sndal had untold repercsns for the gay muny Dubl and throughout Ireland and the UK, the most signifint of which was the passg of the 1885 Gross Incency Act.
