Peter Tatchell gets it handed to him

Did anyone see his GB News slot and then tweet where he explains that there are ‘two different kinds of woman’?

Apparently there is a woman as defined by biology and there is a woman as defined by gender identity. Both are equally valid.

Nearly every comment and quote tweet is a variation of no, had enough of this now, total nonsense, why is anyone listening to this guy?

I think we’re moving away from all of this.

Good that Malcolm C is honestly sharing that there are people who think that PT came, and comes, with questionable warblings on paedophilia/child abuse. Based on having read and heard PT's own words.

I know that PT now doth protest that he, in fact, finds paedophila/child abuse hard to condone. He has issued a statement to this effect. However, oddly enough, some people might still not be reassured by this new statement. Maybe because of his former statements where he alleged that most of the people he knows who were abused as children said they were not harmed by it at all. Indeed PT said friends abused as minors allegedly reported to him that they found it 'enjoyable'. I don't think he has retracted all that stuff. Or the 'questions' about it. Maybe PT was only trying to open a debate. Maybe child abuse/paedophilia could be debated and the views of all sides shared! Maybe on 'Any Questions'. Bring the 'sides' together for a respectful televised discussion. Let those who want decriminalisation for paedophilia/child sex abuse be open about what they want. Sunlight on something which you can stand behind is good, right?

I won't post those statements by PT here. I could, if Mumsnet finds the simple reference as too speculative without a link to the printed statements as supporting evidence. It is not speculation that certain views/'questions' on child abuse/paedophilia were expressed by PT.

Indeed. The BNP were gaining in popularity in the late 2000s, so the BBC invited Nick Griffin onto Question Time. The BBC were roasted for giving him a platform but the end result was that everyone saw him and his party for what they were. Their support collapsed rapidly.

Exactly.
