"Do I have to say… 'OK, maybe I do'.That is not how I feel about the situation, it was critical about the way Mermaids was conducting itself."When asked whether he feels it is appropriate to state the gender identity of a child, he stated: "Sure, I think it’s on a case by case basis but I’m not really an expert, you’re a parent and you’ve got first-hand experience."Los Angeles native Jesse has since taken to social media claiming that a representative for Robert Webb had asked for the discussion to be cut from the final edit of the podcast, to which he declined.In view of his 62,800 followers, he tweeted: "Their publicity team asked if we would consider dropping the last segment and re-recording, if Webb and Mitchell agreed.This would be
