It’s not a question of whether or not Evander Holyfield hates gays after his extremely incorrect speech on Celebrity Big Brother UK about how he believes being gay is like being handicapped — and that a doctor can fix it.
(Watch his speech and the producers scold him HERE!)
You can be completely misinformed about gays and homosexuality without hating them, but it’s still not very nice!
Evander Holyfield’s son, Ewin, is defending his dad after his anti-gay comments and wants the world to know his dad doesn’t hate gays!
Here’s what he said:
“My dad is the most loving and caring person you will ever meet. He treats everyone like a human being … even if they are homosexual. My dad feels that being gay is a choice … and naturally that’s how things work. You cannot procreate and make a baby with two women, or two men. But at the same time, my dad is not going to judge someone for their sexual orientation.”
That sounds exactly like judging someone (on the ability to have children at the VERY LEAST), and what he said about how gay boxers shouldn’t come out sounded a whole lot like judgment too!
Ewin went on to say he has a gay uncle, and Evander treated him like a brother.
Brothers don’t treat brothers’ like that, sorry Ewin.
