A chara, – Your excellent front-page picture (November 18th) of one of Ireland’s newly married gay couples has filled me with joy. The only sadness in my heart is for our gay sons and daughters living in fear and terror in less tolerant parts of the world. We need to be a voice for them. – Yours, etc,

Sir, – Your front-page photograph (November 18th) depicting the marriage of a same-sex couple perfectly encapsulates the dramatic manner in which our society has transformed. In fact, I was quite stunned to discover the very existence of a delightful creature known as a groomsmaid. – Yours, etc,
