Kanye Is Sick Of Being Discriminated Against By The Fashion World For Not Being Gay

Billboard – Kanye West is sharing some thoughts about breaking into the fashion industry.

“I feel like I got discriminated in fashion for not being gay,” he said during an interview with SHOWstudio on Tuesday. “In music, you definitely get discriminated in music if you are gay. It takes amazing talents to break down barriers. Everyone thought that when Frank Ocean dropped that it was going to be bad for his career. I feel like it’s so cliché to speak about him as it relates to this subject, but there are people who broke the ground and he broke the ground. The people that break the stereotypes make history.”

Goddammit, Kanyeezy. You beautiful son of a bitch, you. You did it again. Just when you think that Kanye can’t go out there and out-quote himself again, he pulls off a masterpiece like this. Do you have any idea how hard it is to be a straight male in the year 2015? Gay is the in-est thing there is right now. You got gay dudes harassing straight guys while their walking down the street just because they prefer pussy to dick. Calling us “straighties” and other derogatory terms of the such. So for Kanye West to have the bravery and the courage to be one of the first straight males to enter the fashion world, well all hats off to him. Because it is certainly no small feat.

I don’t know much about the fashion industry. I do know that Kanye’s new stuff looks like it was designed by Obi Wan Kenobi but that’s neither here nor there. Because what I do know is that gay dudes are just inherently more fashionable than straight dudes. Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, ever heard of it? And every time you see a man who is putting on a fashion show, said man is typically into other dudes. So I have no other choice but to believe Kanye in his claim that he has been discriminated in the fashion world for not being gay. But like he said, he’s breaking those stereotypes. 10, 20 maybe 30 years from now when we are all old and have kids of our own, they won’t be afraid to enter the fashion world if they’re a straight man because Kanye already paved that path for them. And I think that’s truly something special. Yeezy 2020.
