Ireland represented by a middle easterner. *shake head*
cj
@AlwaysGay: Nay, he’s legit Irish. Not red head Irish, but still legit Irish. Thank you.
fredo777
He is foine. I’m okay with that win.
Dimi
A white, a black, and a mulatto. How diverse! POWER TO MIXED PEOPLE!!!!! Yay! Mixed people will probably be the majority in this planet in some hundred years.

@AlwaysGay: change your name to alwaysracist.

Most of the pics don’t look like my idea of a man–more wax, shaving, gowns than Miss USA. Was Carrie Prejean there?
AlwaysGay
@cj: Not by ethnicity.

Cute! Love the idea of a male beauty pageant. Female beauty pageants are fun to watch too, but this was creative and I really think some of those guys are dreamy. Mister Ireland is a looker with his smile. Love me a genuine looking smile.

Ibrahim is a middle eastern name, and so what if he is?
Gays being racist against any non white person? shocking.
I’ll take a middle eastern/latin hottie over a generic wasp with no ass any day.
Reality bites
Alwaysgay: People like you make me not get so angry about Prop 8 losing.
Middle eastern gay here and frankly, it’s comments like yours why ethnic groups will never ever warm up to pompous (caucasian) gays. You perfectly illustrate what most ethnic hetros think of gay guys to be. White, racist, and ignorant. You white gays are so deluded to the world around you because you’re so consumed by Abrecrombie, lip gloss, and being vapid that quite frankly, no one WANTS to champion your cause…including us ethnic minority gays.

@AlwaysGay: when you look at the US olympic team, do you shake your head at the Arab-Americans, Asian Americans, Hispanic Americans, etc. representing the USA?

The winner is HOT. Love his look. Reminds me of one of my first boyfriends who had the perfect blend of pretty features and masculine bone structure.
Chris L.
Delurker, isn’t it amazing reading racist comments on a GAY blog? Same people screaming about discrimination, yet behind closed doors, all racial slurs and bashing is perfectly appropriate. Now that’s something worth shaking your head over. As my comment above said, the winner is one stunning man. From his eyes, smile, bone structure and especially beautiful skin color.
jeffree
The winner has a mega-watt smile! Handsome guy!
Really, this racist talk here is nasty. We should b more accepting.
I still believe the HRC only represents the white, aged 30 y/o plus, urban, upperclass men and so, us poor, rural or minority guys (Lt. Dan Choi, 4 exmpl) or wymyn (!) are just fashion accessories or after-thoughts!!
Do the contestants have to go thru the talent competition or Q & A ritual like the Miss Universe pageant?

I’d actually say that it’s a mark of amazing progress that Ireland is represented by a Middle-eastern contestant. Ireland had always been ethnically homogeneous to the extreme, and during the five years I lived there in the early 2000’s, it had a very difficult time coping with the emergent multicultural society that started to form there due to the huge influx of immigrants. So I for one think it’s pretty cool that Ireland has been dragging its way out of the 19th century! ;-))
AlwaysGay
The Irish people deserve to be represented. If some foreigner wants to be in the contest then they could represent a country their roots are from instead of hogging someone else’s.
Slavek. The Irish government has a duty to serve it’s people not outsiders.
DEREK WASHINGTON
@ALWAYSGAY: So, America should always be represented by Miss North Dakota? As long as she’s Blonde right?
You are what is usually referred to as a dumbass.
jeffree
If he has an Irish passport he is Irish! Please familiarize yourself with the EU and its laws before ranting on who is Irish and who is not.

Congratulations to Kimal Ibrahim. Wow, what a beautiful man!!
But all this talk about him being Middle Eastern? He’s not.I wonder if the same people who thinks he’s sooo hot because they think he’s Middle Eastern would still think he’s hot if they knew that his acatual lineage, Italian (mother) Nigerian (father),which in Ireland, Europe and here in the states would make him Black.

Alwaysgay is just a jealous, racist queen!
Alfonzo
Is there a contest on here about who is the first to call someone a racist, because it’s usually within three comments. Everyone is entitled to their opinion and you can choose to ignore it. Think about it this way, how would you feel about a white person from Zimbabwe winning one of their pageants? You also have to understand some of the tension felt by people in europe feeling as though their countries are being changed to be more sympathetic toward muslims when they feel as though these same muslims have no interest in having anyone else’s beliefs protected. Think about how you feel toward the right-wing nut-bags here in the United States.
You have to consider many factors before calling someone a racist and when you do so without considering things like this, YOU are the one who looks ignorant.
On to the actual subject, congratulations to the winner. Muslim, Irish, whatever, he’s handsome.

@Alfonzo: Not an apt comparison. The whites in Zimbabwe, Namibia, the former SA were mainly colonizers and minority rulers. The people of color in European nations are mainly immigrants. Big, significant difference.

@tjr101: For God’s sake people! “Alwaysgay” is another alias for Jason!! He also uses “Revupman” and other aliases. The Jason who’s obsessed with hating women and Blacks, that Jason! Why am I the only one who can tell when it’s him spewing his bile???
