Here's his latest output for the Guardian. Note the penultimate paragraph where he claims to have been victimised by various Twitter feminists and has a very selective memory of what really happened.

Owen only #listensandlearns when it's with women he deems non-problematic. And to think I used to like him. 'This generation's Orwell' indeed Hmm

I know some of the feminists he's referring to and witnessed their interactions with him on Twitter at the time. He was asked why he'd allied himself with a certain feminist (can't quite remember who, possibly Stavvers) who claimed lesbians were transphobic if they didn't want to have sex with a trans woman who still had a penis. He was questioned on this and when he didn't seem to be getting the point they asked if he'd be willing to perform cunnilingus on a gay transman, as this was the equivalent. Cue OJ throwing all his toys out of the pram and resorting to repeating "TRANS WOMEN FTW". Odious little toad.

Woe is he, definitely.

I wish I had a column to deliberately and selectively misrepresent other people when they argue against me.
