Are they admitting that lgbtq+ are groomers then?

Yes.

Now, not all gay or bisexual people are groomers. Just a small fraction of them are. But that tiny fraction make up the majority of groomers.

Do you have a source for that? Most of the large scale grooming situations I've read about have been men-girls, like Rochdale and Telford. In my personal life, I know soooo many women who were in relationships with adult men when they were teenagers. I know a small few men who as teenagers, were involved with older women. When I was a teenager it was so common it seemed quite normal, but as an older adult I see most if not all of those relationships as involving elements of grooming. Especially as most of the men as they got older, just kept going from relationship to relationship with girls of 16/17. I find it hard to imagine that most grooming scenarios are same sex, especially when most people are exclusively opposite sex attracted. I could see how it might be disproportionately likely for groomers to have same sex targets, but that the majority would still be overwhelmingly opposite sex.
