Why are all the stories about the gay slurs coming out now?

LINK


quote:

Irvin told Gary Myers of the New York Daily News that he’s talked to Beckham three times this week, and the gay slurs are commonplace.

“He deals with it a lot. For some reason, everybody goes after him with gay slurs. He’s a different kind of dude,” Irvin said. “He has the hairdo out, he’s not the big muscular kind of dude. The ladies all love him. He’s a star. I wonder why people are going in that direction. It blows my mind. I told him he can’t let stuff that people say get to you.”

He's an essentric dude. And when someone is talking shite calling someone a fig, it's not always a literally thing, just another insult to throw.

Some guy was on Russilo and Kannell yesterday and dropped a hint that OBJ slays all sorts of poon


Basically refuted the gay rumors by saying "he hears a lot of rumors to the opposite effect"

Magic Johnson was supposed to be gay too right?

That's what I'm thinking. The guys talking shite likely have a very limited vocabulary and diminished mental capacity to begin with. They probably sound like Dax Sheppard in Idiocracy yelling 'fig!' at everything.

Yeah that's what I figured but people are making it a big deal that he's being called a fgt. Bros call bros fgts all the time.

It's an expectation in Black Man Culture. Being called a gayboy is about the worst thing you can call them.

He gets called that because he doesn't really conform to that culture in his style of dress.

I imagine there are at least 50 instances of people being called a fgt on the field per game. I just found it peculiar that it blew up this time.

Well, it might be because OBJ knows he doesn't conform to BMC and that makes him insecure to a degree.

It blew up because OBJ is appealing the suspension.

When it happens over and over, at some point it reaches a boiling point. Did you hear Ray Lewis say that he talked to Odell before the game and told him don't let anyone question your manhood? Sounds like Odell has been talking to former players about it for a while and the advice he has been receiving has been to stand up for himself.

He acts like a 14 year old with the swag shite, but I highly doubt he's gay.

I really can't stand the whole whip and nae nae and dab garbage

I don't disagree with you at all, but I wonder where that would fall into the new progressive NFLs view on hate speech and what words are allowed to be said on the field? Racial slurs are a no-no but homophobic ones aren't?

*IMO they shouldn't be policing anything the players say on the field, but they do, so where is the line?

Oh, I see what you're saying now. I don't know. Sexual identity/orientation PC is the thing right now. I'm also guessing because of what happened with Rondo. Who knows.

Pretty sure the NFLPA is appealing the suspension like they do for everyone.

Funny thing is that Odell's haircut and style is super popular with black teenagers. That shite is everywhere now.

It's funny you bring this up because a guy on my Facebook posted about it today, saying how back when he was growing up (he's black) they dressed like "men" and now black guys are dressing like gay dudes.
