Milo Yiannopoulos Is A Child Abuse Survivor
?I am a gay man, and a child abuse victim,? Yiannopoulos wrote Monday night on Facebook amid the fallout. ?I would like to restate my utter disgust at adults who sexually abuse minors. I am horrified by pedophilia and I have devoted large portions of my career as a journalist to exposing child abusers.?
Yiannopoulos wrote that being a child abuse victim himself led him ?to believe I could say anything I wanted to on this subject, no matter how outrageous.? On the podcast, he joked about how a priest taught him to give oral sex while he was a minor.
During a Tuesday press conference, Yiannopoulos reiterated that he does ?not support child abuse ... a disgusting crime of which I?ve been a victim.? He apologized for using the word ?boy? on the podcast when referring to young men of consenting age, and to other abuse victims who may have interpreted his remarks ?as flippant or uncaring.?
