“As part of an extended podcast recently, I suggested that if closeted
people were instead open about their sexuality they wouldn’t abuse
others. That, of course, is wrong. My intention was to encourage the
LGBT audience I was addressing, to be proud and open about their
sexuality. In doing so, my point was clumsily expressed. I would never,
ever trivialize or condone abuse of any kind. I deeply regret my
careless remarks and apologize unreservedly for any distress I caused.”
