Anti-woke Canadian psychologist Jordan Peterson has defended a tweet where he said a plus-sized model in Sports Illustrated was 'not beautiful' because he doesn't think she is 'the ideal of athletic beauty'. Peterson, who faced backlash for his tweet in May, told The Telegraph in a new interview that the tweet was 'not a mistake' or the reason why he decided not to use the platform. He initially tweeted a photo of model Yumi Nu, stating: 'Sorry. Not beautiful. And no amount of authoritarian tolerance is going to change that.' Peterson told The Telegraph: 'The use of that model, who was not athletic (remember: SPORTS Illustrated) was manipulative economically and in relation to the model herself (although she participated in her own exploitation),' he told The Telegraph. 'Beauty is an ideal. Almost all of us fall short of an ideal. I'm not willing to sacrifice any ideal to faux compassion. Period. And certainly not the ideal of athletic beauty.'

He added that he deleted his Twitter account from his personal devices to prevent him 'from reading comments from anonymous trolls' that insisted he was 'a white supremacist' and a 'transphobe'. In the same interview, Peterson once again spoke out about his controversial political ideologies in relation to the LGBTQIA community - who he reportedly calls 'the alphabet people.' The former psychologist claimed that many people are 'confused' about their 'sexual identities.' Peterson argued that some men and women become confused because they notice personality traits of the opposite gender within themselves. 'So the idea that there is fluidity and there is overlap in gender personality is true,' he said. 'What isn't true is that this means you're in the wrong body, and that's not true even a bit.' He added, 'the radical types' notion of gender is completely empty.' Peterson went on to explain how some women can claim they feel like a man, but argue they can't know if they do because they aren't. 'Gender is what you feel. Ok, what do you mean by "feel?" "I feel like I'm a man" Well, how do you know, because you aren't,' he explained of his logic. Peterson said there are many gay adolescents that 'are being convinced they're transsexual' - claiming 'That's not so good for gay people.' When people have approached Peterson about their sexual identities, the psychologist said that, rather than telling them what they should do, he helps them find the solution. 'The right way to handle that therapeutically is to say, OK, I dont know what the hell is best for you, and clearly you dont either because youre confused. So lets evaluate the whole range of possibilities before we do anything precipitous, let alone surgical.'
