Earlier he said “Not to be s-xist but, I can’t vote for the leader of the free world to be a woman,” he said. “Just because, every other position that exists, I think a woman could do well. But the president? It’s kinda like, I just know that women make rash decisions emotionally – they make very permanent, cemented decisions – and then later, it’s kind of like it didn’t happen, or they didn’t mean for it to happen. And I sure would hate to just set off a nuke. [Other leaders] will not be able to negotiate the right kinds of foreign policy; the world ain’t ready yet. I think you might be able to the Lochness Monster elected before you could [get a woman].”

wow at all of the s-xist replies to his apology

let me show you how to run a country

I find it funny that some celebs can make such rude, s-xist and overall ignorant comments and expect a tweetpology to be enough.

Another example of a hypocritical member of a minority group. He won't vote for Donald Trump because he's racist, it seems, so that's immoral...but it's totally fine to make s-xist generalizations?

These cookie cutter apologies are so annoying... He wouldn't have 'apologised' had there not been a sh*t storm over it, so it doesn't mean a damn thing. The man's an idiot.

This is the dumbest comment I've read in a long time    Congrats T.I.

The worst thing is that people will forget about this in no time.

This is similar to what Trump said to that reporter. I am disgusted with these people. So I'm worth less because I don't have a d*ck between my legs? I'm worth less because I supposedly act upon my emotions rather than rationality? That is complete and utter bullsh*t. All they try to do is mask it under the veil of "oh you know women are just more emotional than men" when in reality a lot of people still think women are inferior. 

I refuse to let these disgusting pigs tell what I can and cannot do. Times have changed but sadly their mindset has not. 

UGH makes me so mad.

But how else do people learn? They learn from other people getting pissed off about it and educating them. lol

So it can either be he learned that it was actually wrong or he's just apologizing to just apologize to get rid of the controversy. But we don't really know.

He's pathetic.

You think posting a typical PR apology message in less than 140 characters shows that he's 'learned'? He hardly even acknowledged what he said.

Well I don't know if he did. None of us do, we can only assume.

If he says more stuff like it then yeah, I'm going to assume he didn't learn. I have no other reason to not think he learned something. lol

I think he learned not to make ignorant and bigoted statements like this publicly. He certainly hasn't been 'educated' in the two hours since this came out.

"It’s kinda like, I just know that women make rash decisions emotionally – they make very permanent, cemented decisions – and then later, it’s kind of like it didn’t happen, or they didn’t mean for it to happen."

You're not talking about a woman you've dated, you're talking about a woman being president. Don't get the two mixed up, T.I. You don't just accidentially set off a nuke either. If anything, it's men who are stereotyped as making rash emotional decisions without thinking things through. You'll find that women are more likely to discuss things with others first before charging into something (surely you must have seen how women have to ask their friends first before buying a dress, asking their friends if they should go over and talk to a guy they like, etc). I've found that women like to plan out a course of action and potential consequences before taking things further. You'll notice that nations with female leaders are prospering right now. Angela Merkel, the chancellor of Germany, is considered the world's most powerful woman and she's helped keep Germany afloat during the recession and has one of the most balanced budgets in the world. Dilma Rousseff, the president of Brazil, fronts the 7th largest world economy. Park Gyen-hye, the president of South Korea, is considered the most powerful woman in East Asia and is aiming towards the reunification of North and South Korea. Erna Solberg, the prime minister of Norway and Simonetta Sommaruga, the president of Switzerland, are leading some of the most richest countries in Europe.

Women have been proving they are capable of ruling for years, just as they proved that they are capable to vote, to go to university, compete in the Olympics and so on. Personally, I think with a female in charge, there'd be less wars. You'll notice that the countries with female leaders aren't exactly picking fights with anyone and trying to keep things civil. Then you see the countries run by men and there's corrupt, trigger happy leaders everywhere you look. Of course not all men are like this, but a lot who go on to become politicians sure are. You look at the state of some of these countries under a male leader and you have to think: "Could a woman do better? Well, I'm sure she couldn't do much worse."

His comments highlighted his obvious lack of intelligence and complete stupidity. One of the dumbest things anyone has ever said in the world, ever. He really is a fool and should feel nothing but embarrassment.

I absolutely love your posts. You are never afraid to speak your mind.
