💨 Abstract
The author reflects on LGBTQ+ visibility in Limerick, Ireland, noting progress since his mother’s era, when queer people often hid their identities. Today, rainbow flags and ally support are visible, though challenges remain, especially for trans rights. The city’s Pride, though small, is mighty, and Dublin’s Trans Pride march drew 10,000 allies, showcasing solidarity. While Ireland has advanced (e.g., legalizing same-sex marriage), systemic issues persist.
