“With the whole 14-year law, I bet you for a fact, some people who were signing or voting for that law are gay themselves. It’s ridiculous.

If you look at it statistically, you would know for a fact that a few people who voted on that law would have been gay themselves”.

He also took on women who are homophobic. According to him, women should be the ones pushing for acceptance of gay men so they do not end up marrying gay men. According to him, many women are married to gay men.

”I do feel sorry for the women.You women should be fighting more for acceptance because a lot of you guys are married to gay men. I am sorry but your whole lives are a sham, fake. Your husbands are living in secrecy and leading double lives. I feel like some of you know and some of you don’t mind because your husband is rich but some of you don’t know but discover later and it’s heartbreaking.

I feel like you all should be pushing for acceptance more so that you don’t end in situations like this. Me personally, I would never want to be in a situation where the person who I call my lover or who I am married to does not even like me or is living a fake life. It’s a lot.

That is a fact”
