Abuse wasn't happening on that show so it's again a straw-man argument to say I'm the kind of person responsible for (effectively) protecting pedos or discouraging people to come forward. My attitude to people's responses here is absolutely not why some people never come forward about abuse. Did he even pause to consider the context? If he did, he kept it to himself. I can't believe I'm the first one in the thread to suggest that.Ĭlick to expand.My attitude is that you shouldn't label people as pedos because you're too lazy to think about what you're seeing - eg the OP's total over-reaction. To settle this, I say we look him up and build a bridge out of him. The context was only slightly sexual but the way he went about it and the girl's ages made it seem less appropriate. To me, it's not necessarily OMGpedo behavior as much as a male host taking advantage of a power asymmetry over a female guest.
If most of our reactions here were to be chalked up to a cultural difference, IMO, the girls should have appeared much more comfortable with it.Įven if the girls were adults and nothing else were changed, it would still appear creepy because he didn't respond to behavioral cues indicating they weren't comfortable with his actions. He could have kissed them on top of the head and made the same point, if he wanted to show affection. It may make for cute camera schtick, but what I saw was an adult figure breaching a child's personal space/comfort zone. It's just that the girls were obviously uncomfortable (for whatever reason(s)). IMO, his actions don't make him a pedophile. Now let's see you ruin a man's life and marriage and drag his name through the gutter based on your FUD. There's no statute of limitations, he can still be investigated and prosecuted. If you believe what's happening is wrong - report the man. It's people like you who used to burn witches.īTW, how many of the posters here who feel they HAVE witnessed multiple publicly televised sexual assaults by a pedophile have actually done anything about it? Anyone reported this man to the FBI yet? Oh that's right, you don't give a flying fuck about child abuse, you just like to act all morally superior and shocked and disapproving on the internets in front of all your internet friends.
He's not behaving in a sexual manner, he's not touching them in a sexual manner, he's not groping them, he's not seducing them. He's not going to cancel the show or give up his act coz some of them say no or whatever.

He's a TV presenter working with shy kids. Click to expand.A whole metric-shit-ton of context is needed, that isn't there.
