"My wife is not happy with the way I've conducted myself" - Tyrese apologizes for bashing women negatively on social media

Tyrese Gibson has been on a roll on social media recently. From criticizing women who enhance their beauty, calling them fake and saying that no man will take them seriously (See here) to lashing out against promiscuous women, calling them "sluts, skeezers, hoes, tramps"
(See here) After facing serious backlash, Tyrese has now apologized in a humble way, probably hoping that it won't affect his career. He wrote:


"My mother taught me better than this..... lesson learned in life you will learn that It's not always "what" you say, it's the "how" we choose to say it.  For the record I'm far from a misogynist, a male chauvinist or flat out mean..... My intentions were there but my delivery fucking horrible.... And clearly all the way off.... And for that I sincerely apologize to all of the ladies... Even after this apology.... Some may likely decide to NOT forgive me.... Time and consistency heals all wounds.... Although I've been consistently for years speaking on these topics and some of the same words in my message, I have never experienced what I am experiencing right now. 
I've been getting dragged and feel the heat from my poor choice of words and approach to my messages, trust me..... Please accept this as my sincere apology for my poor choice of words -  Shit gets real when it goes from a social media dragging to my own wife giving me the side eye and coming at me,  even she's not happy with the way I've conducted myself.... it's crazy how non-public figures can say and do some really dumb shit and it will stay amongst your family and friends or local in your hood.... When you have been an entertainer for 15+ years the whole WORLD is literally watching you grow up & learn, bump your head, make mistakes and evolve as the world watches.... This is a real lesson learned... This is not just a regular IG post for me.
I want to truly say that I'm sorry, I'm not APOLOGIZING in an effort  to be politically correct, I apologize as a man first for the things that I've recently said about choices women have the right to make, for the terms that I've used and the way I've come across. I was raised to think and feel certain ways, and I'm learning new things that combat those messages. I am not perfect or all knowing, nor am I the one to claim to be. I've learned things through experience which I share, and through these last couple of weeks, I've learned a lot through this well deserved internet dragging...... This is about a man owning up to his actions, taking responsibility, recognizing how to do better, and actually doing better. Ladies you deserve better...

  1. When u have diarrhea of the mouth, that is usually the outcome. U talk without thinking, forgetting your sense in the toilet. Next time think before u talk. U have been forgiven, go n sin no more.

  5. Defeat UnEmployment !!

    A skill is capital! Exchange it for money. INVEST!
    A business either sells products or services. Oftentimes, people wait for an individual, corporate organisation, or a small business set up by another individual to employ them before they earn a living. There is nothing fundamentally wrong with that. However, the reality is... Get Started
