A man who horrified families after attending a mid-afternoon performance at Shakespeare's Globe dressed in a gimp suit may not be allowed in again, the venue has admitted.

The theatre goer left other audience members in shock as he arrived at a matinee showing of The Comedy of Errors while dressed in the tight blue latex suit on May 24.

The sight has sparked outrage, with one audience member calling the head-to-toe outfit, which included a facemask and leather harness, 'extremely inappropriate', adding that the 'scary' scene left other visitors visibly uncomfortable.

The audience member later made a formal complaint to the venue, but was shocked as managers defended their decision to allow the man in despite the sexual nature of the clothing as it 'did not contain offensive slogans'.

However, the venue has now appeared to back down amid rising anger at the decision to allow him in, and has admitted he might not be let back in should he reappear.

Yet again proving that the slippery slope is not always a logical fallacy. Hilarious that they would tolerate a gimp suit, but probably wouldn’t tolerate a “Woman - Adult Human Female” t-shirt.

I still can't believe we're on the way to live in the reality of a Judge Dredd comic book from the '80s.

Dredd would know how to deal with Gimpman.

So much of the T and Q are just public fetishes. Sissy fetishes, autogynephilia, masochism, sadism, and other things that belong behind closed doors. I couldn’t give a shit less what happens in people’s bedrooms, so long as it’s consensual and between adults. But this shit does not belong out in public where we are all NOT consenting to be a part of their sexual exhibitionism. So much of the fight for gay rights was proving to everyone that the community is composed of normal people who happened to be same sex attracted. I totally support them in that light!

But now we have elements of the T’s and virtually all of the Q out here doing every depraved thing in their power to prove to everyone that they are every bit as grotesque and abnormal as people were initially concerned over. Simultaneously, they are glomming onto people in the LGBT community, who do NOT fucking want them associating with them. As community acceptance and tolerance continues to decline, we all know who is to fucking blame.

The Ts & Qs are single-handedly undoing all the tolerance and acceptance the LGB worked so hard for. Kids are being dragged into fetishes, women can't use the bathroom or try on clothes without a man of unknown intent in the stall next to them, lesbians get cancelled for turning down a feminine penis, etc. I remember when pedophilia and corrective rape were bad things but they've been rebranded as tolerance and inclusivity. I actually feel really bad for normal gays, they must be really kicking themselves for letting these degenerates latch onto their cause.
