He looks exactly how you imagine he would, very camera shy, unsurprisingly.
Some excellent strategy by Wings over Scotland, they managed to get him arrested at a court hearing of yet another malicious case brought by him.
Well played, very well played.

I'm really quite concerned that people on this board are convinced that women can do no wrong and that women's wrongdoing has no consequence for others.
I have said, multiple times, that men abuse an much greater numbers than women. Sexual abuse of children is, probably, one of the most harmful things one human being can inflict on another.
It is my belief that it is incumbent on us all to call out any and all sexual abuse of children, to not call out the sexual abuse carried out by a small number of women is not helpful imo.

No one is saying women do no wrong. No one is even saying that women never sexually abuse children - they do, albeit very rarely.

But you are conflating two things: women are capable of sexual abuse, ergo this is a plausible explanation for LW's behaviour. There are an almost infinite number of reasons why he behaves as he does, many of them more likely than this scenario, so why you've settled on the oddly specific idea of a woman's historical sexual abuse is baffling.

Literally nobody has said that.

We just disagree with your cod diagnosis of a man's behaviour that blames a woman.

In fairness the second photo was taken 25 years ago (according to The Telegraph) - I don't know what kind of filters there were then?

What it does show clearly is the effect of ?30? years of cross-sex hormones on the body - more than half his lifetime.

I am fairly sure there were means to manipulate images that far back, going by my DDs age and the friend who refused to believe it existed, it was called airbrushing I think (?)
I remember wanting to make it quite clear to teenage DD that images were not as perfect as they made out to be.

No idea if the image in question has been tarted up tho.

Hardly, but if you wish to continue to believe that, there is nothing i can say to persuade you otherwise.
The fixed belief and lack of debate, instigated by tra's is not something which gender critical people should follow, in my view.

We are all capable of reading the post where you made it clear you blamed a woman.

Based on reading them talk about themselves, and their behaviours, to each other, I've seen these men constructing sympathetic narratives to hide their fetish-driven behaviour, particularly in their dealings with medics, counsellors, and state bureaucracy. They only admit to each other that they do this because they know it would not be well received by the rest of society.

At no time have I suggested that it is otherwise. It is, i think, useful to at least try and understand what drives the extreme letigiousness of these men. It is my theory that they do this to keep the " noise" going to stop them having to think about reality.

Yes, it does happen but it also does women no favours to look at an abusive adult man and speculate that it was his mother's fault.
Men abuse at much higher rates than women. It would make as much sense to blame a father as a mother.
In this case, Watson is an adult, a grown man, sixties at least I imagine. His behaviour is his own.

The cases that I'm thinking of, it was a woman who sexually abused her son. We do not do women any favours by pretending that none of us ever can be guilty of sexual abuse.
The vast majority of abusers are male, but there are still women who sexually abuse children. The survivors of csa, who experience the most damage are those abused by their primary care giver, there is not enough research into why, or into why some women abuse

He's clearly got a lot of issues and is a deeply unpleasant and vindictive man. That's all anyone other than his own doctor or psychologist can conclude. He might be mentally ill. He might have had an awful childhood. He might just be a git.

Understanding the drives behind behaviour is not excusing that behaviour. People are expressing a wish to understand the man, i suggested some explanation.
The absolute need to keep chaos around him, alongside his apparent belief that he is always right suggests a form of personality disorder which may well stem from poor attachment, which can correlate to early sexual abuse from a primary care giver

You are apportioning causation where there may only be correlation.

And yes, you did blame a woman.

And that is even if they were telling you the truth, as a PP has pointed out. Maybe you were being manipulated?

Please do not blame women for men's behaviour.

Having worked with survivors of abuse for decades, I did indeed believe the trans identified men who told about being abused by their mothers. I do not believe that this makes them women, i believe it makes them men with very specialised psychological needs, who should never be given surgery and/ or cross sex hormones. It does not help any of us to not investigate the men who use needful in their early 20's and continue with the delusion into their 50's and 60's.

Based on reading them talk about themselves, and their behaviours, to each other, I've seen these men constructing sympathetic narratives to hide their fetish-driven behaviour, particularly in their dealings with medics, counsellors, and state bureaucracy.

Dumbo12 · 16/02/2026 13:44

My thoughts on why this man behaves as he does, this is, of course theory only, as i have never met the man!.
He was possibly abused by a woman as a small child and so identified as woman, to "protect " himself, his early sexual fantasy/ porn use triggered the sexual fantasy of himself as a girl. He then became so invested in this "persona", while knowing that he was still male, that he had to squash his self knowledge by lots of mental " noise". He was also affirmed by those around him, feted for being stunning and brave this in itself becomes addictive and he can't cope with the change of perception. He has to keep the merry go round going to stop himself from having to have who he is and what he has done.

Blimey, I hope you warmed up before that stretch or you’re going to do yourself a mischief.

I’ve seen a lot of apologists come on here and try to spin why the poor ickle man is actually the victim, but that is almost impressive in its determination to find an excuse, however far-fetched.

I did not blame a woman, but have come across trans identified men who were sexually abused by their mothers when they were small boys. It is not helpful, in my experience, to paint all women as incapable of sexual abuse of children. The vast majority of those who sexually abuse children are men, but there are women who do and they have an impact on child survivors.
