Duval hit TMZ Live last night to address all of the backlash he received after ‘joking’ on The Breakfast Club that he would kill a transgendered woman if he found out he’d been tricked into sleeping with one and he stands by his statements and also says the deception involved should be a crime.
Duval faced a ton of backlash when he joked about how “someone would have to die” if he found out he’d been deceived into having intimate relations with someone who was born male but he also insists he has no problem with gay or transgender people.
I?m trying to figure out do y?all see why did I say what I said? Like what made me say that?
I said that because they were saying, ‘take away someone’s power of choice’, and that’s what you did.
When you take away somebody’s power of choice, it should be criminal and you don’t know what that can do to somebody psychologically.
Duval continues…
I don’t have a problem with transgenders. I ain’t got no problem with gay people. I’ve got a problem with somebody trying to take something from me.
He further notes…
The situation was… what would I do if I found out somebody was a man that I thought was a woman, and didn’t tell me was a woman. All that other stuff they put on it, that’s on them.
As for why he’d retaliate with murder — Duval offered an explanation. It’s basically an insanity plea because a straight man could incur ‘psychological damage’ from a deception of that magnitude.
