That and writing the foreword for a book by a notorious paedophile, writing a letter to The Guardian saying that 9 year olds having sex with adults was not always abusive or harmful. Oh and he has campaigned for years for the age of consent to be reduced from 16.

I see. Well some of those are a little more questionable. Both of the first two quotes I saw were just about not invalidating people who had "intergenerational sex" as he calls it, and don't feel abused. That much at least I can agree with. For the rest I'd have to do more research to say if I agree with any specific positions, but I do wish it wasn't so taboo to even discuss such things.

The Guardian article seems fairly reasonable. He suggests maybe it should be 14 (which is the same as some other European countries) and that a close-in-age exception is needed. Is it all based on pedo agenda? Maybe, but I'd rather see it rebutted on his actual statements' merits (or lack there of).

Good. That's what I want them to think.
