‘Gay men hate women’

-

AZEALIA Banks, 23, claims lots of “gay men are way more misogynist­ic than straight men”. The rapper got embroiled in a war of words on Twitter with celebrity blogger Perez Hilton in January last year during which she branded him a “messy faggot”.

Azealia was criticised for using the homophobic slur, but she defines “faggot” as being an insult for misogynist­s – and a hatred of women is something she believes many gay guys have.

When asked if she regretted the feud by The Guardian, she said: “I don’t regret doing it, but I’ll never do it again, because I don’t care enough about the person to have the battle again and defend my use of the word ‘faggot’. A lot of gay men are way more misogynist­ic than straight men. The s**t they say about women behind their backs…

“A faggot is anybody who hates women.”
