Looks like the internet aren’t the only ones disturbed by T.I.’s comments that he checks his daughter’s hymen annually.
His own daughter just reacted to the controversy — and not in his favor.
This week, T.I. unleashed a new level of “huh???” on the world when he made unexpected comments about his 18-year-old daughter, Deyjah Harris’ virginity.
These controversial comments took place while the rapper was on the Ladies Like Us podcast.
BTW, Deyjah isn’t his only child.
He has five others!
Deyjah is his oldest who he had with Ranniqua Harris, who now goes by the stage name, “Ms. Niko.”
T.I.’s controversial comments began when he was asked whether or not he’s had the “sex talk” with Deyjah yet.
The rapper then proceeded to give the world much more than we were expecting…
“Not only have we had the conversation. We have yearly trips to the gynecologist to check her hymen,” he said.
“Yes, I go with her.”
After her 16th birthday party, he even recalled leaving a sticky note on her door with the message: “Gyno. Tomorrow. 9:30.'”
“So we’ll go and sit down and the doctor comes and talk, and the doctor’s maintaining a high level of professionalism,” T.I. said.
“He’s like, ‘You know, sir, I have to, in order to share information’ — I’m like, ‘Deyjah, they want you to sign this so we can share information.”
Since T.I. has a vested interest in his daughter’s hymen, he’s well-educated on what can and can’t break it.
“And so then they come and say, ‘Well, I just want you to know that there are other ways besides sex that the hymen can be broken like bike riding, athletics, horseback riding, and just other forms of athletic physical activity,'” he said.
“So I say, ‘Look, Doc, she don’t ride no horses, she don’t ride no bike, she don’t play no sports. Just check the hymen, please, and give me back my results expeditiously.'”
“I will say, as of her 18th birthday, her hymen is still intact.”
Not surprisingly, T.I.’s comments have been met with tons of backlash online.
People couldn’t imagine the level of humiliation that comes with your father having an interest in your sexual health.
His yearly routine has even been called “toxic.”
“This hymen talk is very strange and at the core of it teaches your daughters their bodies aren’t theirs. Don’t do that,” another wrote .
Chrissy Teigen also got involved.
Later, she wrote: “alright it’s time to mute ‘hymen.'”
Now, even Deyjah herself has weighed in on the controversy.
She did so by sending a silent, but strong message when reacting to some of the backlash online.
So far, she’s liked three tweets from her father’s critics.
All three tweets are super similar, with mention of T.I. being “possessive” and “controlling.”
Deyjah’s reaction has even led some people to believe that this is her way of crying for help.
One person who hasn’t reacted to all the controversy, though, is T.I.
We’ll just have to wait and see what he says, or if he even says anything at all.
What do you think of Deyjah’s reaction to her dad’s comments?
