While purely anecdotal, none of the neurodivergent people I know have ever had the compulsion to, allegedly, expose themselves to women wearing nothing but a cocksock. Might just be my social circle though.

Can’t blame autism for being a creep that’s just all him

This is rage inducing for the sheer fact life is hard for many people who are on the spectrum and neurodivergent.
using this defence is a spit in the face, its horrible in so many ways.

As somebody who is autistic it makes me really quite angry that he is using it as part of his defence, some people who have no experience of neurodivergent people might think that’s what they are like, when in reality he’s just a creepy old man, who may not even have autism. I have certainly never heard of autistic people doing crazy extrovert things like running naked. He’s also pretty sharp with his eye contact and causal small talk.

It’s so infuriating that these people use their position, power and influence to abuse people for years.
And when the victims come forward, they are treated like the criminal by their abuser and made to feel ‘less than’.
He’s already tried belittling the victims and downplaying the accusations, now he’s using the disability card to create a false narrative surrounding his behaviour/actions.

I’ve met many people on the spectrum, and absolutely none have told me about their cock.

Autism might mean you miss social queues, they still understand what no means

This shit is an insult to people who live their lives and adapt their world to being on the autistic spectrum. It’s a real neurodivergence for some people.
It’s not an excuse that nonces can use to show their cocks to people who don’t wish to see them.

I’m autistic but I’m not a sex pest. The two do not go hand in hand

He is saying now that the BBC are at fault for not investigating his disability, yet he has only recently been diagnosed. I’m assuming that previously people at the BBC just thought he was a twat but now know that he is a twat who is also autistic.
Trying to use an alleged diagnosis of autism to excuse deviant behaviour actually makes the whole situation worse.

I read Greg Davies and nearly had my weekend ruined.

I feel people have been a bit unfair to greg. Over the course of 20 years in tv, he must have had to host and entertain so many people and personalities at the drop of a hat. And that’s really tough to do. And he probably made mistakes.
If things were getting bad, his production managers have had every opportunity to talk to him and discipline him if neccessary over the years. But instead nothing gets done or said for years and years, and then all the complaints come in at once and he gets painted as this deviant prolific sex pest.
I dont believe the sock-penis saga. And i think a lot of the critisicsm from former masterchef guests was absurd and petty.

He’s not too neurodivergent to become successful and rich, but he’s too neurodivergent to know right from wrong?

“TV arsehole reaches for autism save-my-career card” would have been a better headline.

‘Greg(g) Wallace faces backlash’ is a sentence I’m always happy to read

I laughed my ass off when I read his statement. Is no one advising him on this? Dude just completely doubled down on it all with desperate nonsensical BS. Crazy creepy bastard.

Gregg Used: “Autism Defense”!
It’s Not Very Effective.

As an autist, I hate the “autistic defence”. Fucking BS.

Autism isn’t a defence, it’s not an excuse, man is just a gigantic smeg encrusted jeb end.

What an absolute fucking wanker. First he dismisses and insults the accusers, then claims it was “just his humour”, now he’s hiding behind autism, trying to capitalise on the stigma autistic people already get by using it to excuse his behaviour.
And the cheek to blame his bosses for not “taking action to protect HIM” in a dangerous environment when it’s a very recent diagnosis and the person making the environment dangerous was him!
As an autistic person this kind of shit makes my blood boil. There is autism, and there’s being a cunt. The fact he tried to write it off by demeaning the accusers, then saying it was “just his humour” before saying “but I’m autistic” shows he knows what he did.
This is up there with Kevin Spacey answering accusations of molesting underage boys by coming out as gay.

I knew quite a few who have been diagnosed with Autism and none of them have ever gotten their cocks out in public and act like utter bellends

I swear to God recently it seems like every criminal pulls out an Autism diagnosis when they get to the dock. What a thing to have popping into people’s heads when I’m trying to explain my condition to them!
