Sorry I can't share the article, but liked this:

What is the funniest thing that has happened in your job?

As a result of my work in this area, apparently becoming an object of admiration on Mumsnet [the Internet parents' forum] - improbable in many ways.

Considering hearache said this back in July:

I don't know what Peter Tatchell's view are and I have no interest in finding out. All I know is homophobes always bring up paedophiles when LGBT rights are discussed and it's absolutely no surprise to me that this has been done by LGBA supporters.

I think that readers can begin to understand why the question being asked across many threads now is being determinedly ignored.

It must take a very ideological believer to continue to ignore the writings of Peter Tatchell the way Hearache has. It is remarkable to see it in action. And once you see the utter hypocrisy in action, you can never unsee it.

Damien Barr said some horrifically transphobic things this century. He tweeted mocking comments about a transwoman's uncompleted suicide.

But he's a TRA media darling. Why?

Because he apologised sincerely, meant it and now stands up for the rights of trans people.

As the Bible says, "I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent."

And anyone else remember hearache gleefully stating they couldn’t wait for heterosexuality to be cured?

Remarkable really. The prejudice behind that comment.

Just coming back to this, let’s get back on track? You know, considering I am now the patriarchy…

I mean, fuck that is just the most astonishing accusation I have come across and shows the absurd lengths some posters go to.

so, getting back to this much avoided question.

Is that a yes or a no, Hearache

Do you support the statements about ‘intergenerational’ sex (and more recently underage marriage!) that Peter Tatchell has made?

Yes or no?

Do you hold Peter Tatchell, Jane Fae and Nancy Kelley to the same standard as you are holding Baroness Nicholson?

Continued avoidance indicates that you are indeed a very hypocritical person. And really says all that needs to be said about you and your opinions.

"the most astonishing accusation"

You support and excuse a legislator who has voted to deny women the right to marry who they wish and raise a family with who they wish. Your posts here are little more than a 1950s tribute act.

Patriarchy, thy name is Helleofabore.

As a straight person, will you condemn all malign statements and crimes committed by other straight people?

Yes or no?

When a cure for heterosexuality is found they should be first in line.

Wow, someone is trying to avoid answering for the crimes of other straight people. It's very telling!

ErrolTheDragon · 21/08/2022 22:48

I can't work out if 'a cure for heterosexuality' is serious or sarcastic but it's fatuous either way.Confused

I am serious. The world would be a better place if the WBC could be cured.

Helleofabore · 21/08/2022 22:53

you have stated you prefer to remain ignorant of Peter Tatchell’s statements. Why? What kind of person would do that?

By the way is this a yes or a no,m answer, Hearache?

Do you support the statements about ‘intergenerational’ sex (and more recently underage marriage!) that Peter Tatchell has made?

Yes or no?

Do you hold Peter Tatchell, Jane Fae and Nancy Kelley to the same standard as you are holding Baroness Nicholson?

Please keep giving the live demonstration of how hypocritical your activism is. It just leads readers, and there will be thousands in the lifetime of this thread, to go and find out and drawn their conclusions about what you actively support in reality.

VestofAbsurdity · 21/08/2022 22:53

Ah so no comment on the support they are showing for the aping of their signs at Manchester Pride by participants in Pride then? Well colour me surprised, as ever one rule for you and your cohort and another for everyone else.

ErrolTheDragon · 21/08/2022 22:53

Sure the world would be a better place if WBC could be cured of their appalling homophobia.

But heterosexuality doesn't need a 'cure'. Seriously, are you advocating conversion therapy for heterosexuals?Confused

Yes Errol, Hearache has advocated for it on other threads. And been deleted for it, I believe …

It doesn’t mean you are any less deeply prejudiced at all.
