Tyrese Is Back With More Misogynistic, Slut-Shaming Advice We Didn’t Ask For  

Sigh...Tyrese!

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready…

Tyrese is back doing what he does best: Tyrese-ing.

The Fate of the Furious actor is in hot water after spewing his usual hotep and misogynistic viewpoints while promoting his latest flick at BET.

In a Facebook live interview, the newlywed offered his insights to women who were being patient and waiting for the right man.

LOL: Tyrese said some things here and now people are mad https://t.co/a7SYTb4hU6

“I appreciate all the ladies out there that are still single, that are holding out. Don’t settle. Don’t settle.”

He added: “Sluts, skeezers, hoes, tramps and overly aggressive promiscuous women, they are never without a man because they don’t have no standards. They ready to have sex with any and everything that want to have sex with them. But when you are single, and you actually love yourself, you know your value and your self worth you hold out until God sends you what is yours.”

But he didn’t stop there. There’s more: “So sometimes they be talking mess to women that are single but I have a respect for them because if you’re single and you might say, ‘I’ve been single for a couple years.’  what ever the case may be, you actually holding out because you have your value. You have women that are active out in these streets, they going to lunches and dinners every night. Private planes, mega yachts, it’s cracking. They’re never without. However, it comes with a cost, you gonna put a lot of miles on yourself down there, come on.”

Social media, of course, reacted swiftly to his comments, making Tyrese a trending topic on Twitter.

Women don't ever want your advice @Tyrese 👌🏾

I really want Tyrese to LEAVE WOMEN ALONE. Stop letting him spread his hateful inarticulate
bullshit misogynistic views on your platforms.

It looks like BET isn’t getting off the hook either, with many accusing the media company of promoting Tyrese’s misogyny. The company has since taken down a tweet promoting an article of the interview, and has made sure to note that Tyrese’s views do not reflect those of the company.

Welp!
