Well, he has defended pedophilia in the past.

Recently, his essays were in a volume edited by Kraus, titled the "War on Science". And you probably think the war is anti-vax, RFK jr., or the dismantling of federal funding for basic research. No, it's holding professors accountable for sexual misconduct actually.

Well, he has defended pedophilia in the past

A survivor of child molestation encoded the molestation as "not that bad, see I turned out all right, everyone got molested at my school" and for some reason instead of people telling him "dude, I'm so sorry this happened to you, use those resources to process that" he's getting called "defender of pedophiles".

Is it because he's a man?
