to think Nick Conrad (BBC Norfolk) should be gagged with his own bloody knickers

The man is pathetic, but his views are still very harmful.
Apparently a man's sexual urges are some sort of juggernaut without brakes. Turn it on, and there is nothing to be done but let it roll on to the finish. Sad and sickening.

Is he married, gf? Surely huge alarm bells will be ringing for her now.

No response here yet.

TheAlias, I meant to bring up the incompetence angle but I was too bloody angry!

Foul little bastard. Am concerned for his DD if that's what he really thinks - imagine what lessons she'll be absorbing as she grows up.

They make a point on the complaints page about how they use license payers' money as efficiently as possible and will reply jointly to complaints on the same subject. So I imagine we'll all get the same blanket reply that doesn't really cover any of the issues.

Thanks for that link reddaisy, I've just complained.

This cunt should be sacked. Obviously to hold views like that means that he probably practices what he preaches. I wonder how many women have fallen victim to him?

I am not sure if they knew the full details of the case which he should do if presenting a programme about it. He should have known the full details of the case. He knows enough about the case and his still has these views

I'm hoping that his views (and those of most of the public he led) would be different if the detail of the case had been clear. I don't think any of them, or he had a clue what had actually happened to the poor woman.

Presenting a BBC programme with such poor preparation is almost as bad as the abhorrent views.

Fucking hell, what a dick head.
There are a fair number of people who have these kind of view. Sadly.
I hope he is made an example of by the BBC.

Rotten shithead.

If a man can't control himself, he should take himself off into the toilet for a wank

He should be sacked. End of. Others have had to resign for less. Sad this kind of thinking is still out there, but doesnt surprise me.

If you want any serious action taken you need to complain to Ofcom.

The BBC will just whitewash it.

HiddenHome, I once worked with a man who used to discuss in our open plan office how he did just that at lunchtime. I was only young so had no idea what to say and everyone else just used to laugh it off

The Eastern Daily Press are running an online poll to see if people think he overstepped the mark.

At the moment it is running at
47% said NO
53% said YES

Depressing eh?

Bod, that's because no-one knows the detail of the case. They think they're talking about a woman who intentionally set out to end up in his bed and changed her mind. Which is still wrong on so many levels but not at all what happened here.

I so wanted to put that in capitals, but I'd be shouting at them, not you.

How safe do the women who work with him feel I wonder?

Well if he likens a man with a hard on to a dog who has their tail pulled, this means the rapist can put down yes?

I have emailed the paper to tell them they're just as lazy and irresponsible as he is for asking the public to vote without explaining the facts.

It's @BBC Norfolk of you want to tweet them, I have done. I live in Norwich and am complaining am horrified by his rape apologist bollocks.

Could someone link to the original or actual details of what ched did please?

Seems a timely point for a reminder.

I googled but I'm finding lots of half stories. I'll put the wrong one up...

This man has given away what his thought processes are, how he feels, and what he thinks is OK.

ie that he thinks rape is perfectly understandable if the man is aroused and women need to mind themselves more if they want to avoid it.

Right.

The mistake he made is assuming that how he thinks is how everyone else thinks. Because of course not all men think that once they've got an erection that is good cause and excuse to commit rape. And thank fuck for that.

And AND it occurred to me when I read the thing that he doesn't think that women have strong sexual urges or desires. He's totally into this whole women as gatekeepers of sex, whether they decide to do it or not isn't because they might want to but it's something the man has to persuade her to "give up".

And the only men who think like that are (quite obviously and logically) men who are shit in bed.

So there we have it.

Plenty of people just like this odious little man have worked/work for the BBC.

Dear god. How depressing.

His advice to women to avoid being raped seems to be to keep your knickers on. Bet there are hundreds of thousands of women who wish they'd had that useful advice. :(

He needs to be sacked
