Are they deleting their tweets yet? I hope those who archived them are ready to start posting them under each and every reverse ferret.

I cannot, CANNOT understand how this revolting man is given mainstream airtime. I have heard from his own mouth that he believes 9 year old children can enjoy sex with adults. It beggars belief.

A nine year old child cannot consent to sex.

Only a man who is supporting paedophilia (either intentionally or not) would even suggest that a 9 year old could consent.

And consent cannot be retrospective either.

And it is fucked up that any person would declare this without considering that their mate who told them their story would not have built a lie around their rape. It is like Tatchell knows nothing about rape and sexual abuse victims.

Tom Swarbrick's reply is amusing. He's gracious enough to delete his own misleading tweet and then adds a video of Tatchell saying the TWAW thing he said he has never said 😅

  1. Peter Tatchell referring to rapist as ‘she’
  2. Also Peter Tatchell

The idea that a would-be male rapist is going to dress as a woman for 3 months to get a GRC is laughable.

Does he really have no idea how self ID works? He seems to think there's a requirement to 'dress as a woman'. What does he think this means? Does he think there are dress codes for women in Scotland like in Afghanistan or Iran?

Just wondering if/when this thread with publicly available and documented information will get zapped

I don’t think the media should necessarily ignore Tatchell, but his history of interest in children should be included every time he is mentioned.

LaughingPriest · 27/01/2023 09:23

I'm honestly not trying to get at BoiledBeetle but I noticed in another thread you referred to him as Thatchell throughout - is this a 'Thatcher' joke or a typo? Only because it took me a while to click that it was Tatchell!

MorvenOfMalvern · 27/01/2023 09:11

Really disturbingly, Ben Bradshaw MP, who shouted at Rosie Duffield and defended LRM behaviour as "calling out transphobia" then retweeted Tatchell's post about it being "laughable" that a rapist would dress as a woman to access female prison.

Not a word on it since, interestingly.

I cannot get my head round being an MP and then amplifying someone like PT. Especially when you're all over the news being criticised for your behaviour already. Blows my mind.

Allthegoodnamesarechosen · 27/01/2023 09:11

But if you are held in a ‘seperate wing’ , presumably with other female identifiers, what would be the point? Because that wouldn’t be a woman’s prison, it would be a ……..prison, a prison for penis deniers. So that wouldn’t be affirming, which would be ‘literal violence’ ( plenty of that around, of course, where these penis deniers are concerned).

Waitwhat23 · 27/01/2023 09:10

Ugh, Tatchell. The reverse ferreting is so very predictable.

We would do well to not forget that Mr Tatchell wrote of his belief that sexual abuse by adults on children brought 9 year olds great pleasure, although of course his comments were <checks notes> 'misunderstood'. A letter to the Guardian, no less, in which he stated 'it is time society acknowledged the truth that not all sex involving children is unwanted, abusive and harmful' Lovely man, don't you think?

How he gets air time given his clear ‘propensities’ is utterly beyond me

BEYOND ME

Ah Peter Tatchell. Quite the expert at the reverse ferret.

www.petertatchellfoundation.org/what-peter-tatchell-really-said-about-child-sex-abuse/

How does that phrase go? Once is an accident, twice is a coincidence, three times is a pattern...

rogdmum · 27/01/2023 07:50

It won’t last. He’ll only be saying it because if the current outrage. Once it dies down and the media moves into something else, he’ll be back at it.

@Boiledbeetle " And Posie gets shat on from a great height because her only remaining option was to employ some right wing security company in a different country? "

I could be wrong, very wrong but i think at least some of it's down to pure jealousy and therefore, anything they can throw, they will!
Good for her, that she doesn't care what they say, good for her!

Mummyoflittledragon · 27/01/2023 02:07

Are you saying this is a gotcha otherwise the rapist would also need to be segregated in a trans wing?

TheClogLady · 27/01/2023 01:38

Peter Tatchell is the individual human equivalent of Stonewall the Org.

Both were involved in some really effective activism for LGB people in the dim and distant past and they’ve been coasting on that success ever since. It’s getting harder and harder to keep doing it.

And everyone in the media, political, laptop, liberal class is politely doing their best not to look at Tatchell or Stonewall up close because there’s a lot of bad wood underneath that shiny rainbow veneer.
The smell of damp is hard to miss, but as long as the mould spores aren’t visible they can keep politely ignoring the rotten core.

It’s getting harder and harder to keep doing that too.

One thing about Tatchell is though, when posters are fuckwittering around with the ridiculous ‘guilt by association’ accusations, it is Tatchell that proves to be their undoing.

Once his name comes into the discussion, they have to either accept that their own movement is in no way pure or they attempt to distract. Usually with very personal attacks.

Although, I have had posters try to convince us that Tatchell was a great spokesperson and bluff their way through .

It must be something absolutely massive.

Nah, memory cards are really small these days.

AndyWarholsPiehole · 27/01/2023 01:11

I wonder what he has over those in the media that make them give him a platform despite him saying several times that raping a child is not always rape.
