During a periscope livestream, Cardi B discussed several topics including Offset's lyrics that have been deemed homophobic and how she feels about being called transphobic:
-On being called transphobic for using the word, "tranny": "I didn't know that that word...like I didn't know that that was a word that you cannot use, especially because my trans friends use it and growing up, my parents never told me that that was a bad word. You know, there's bad words that your parents teach you that you're not supposed to say. Nobody taught us that. Nobody taught us that in our school."
-She asks why people don't "educate" her and let her know that these are derogatory words to use instead of bashing her.
-Says that she hasn't even been talking to Offset lately because of "personal problems" but still defends him: "I'm not gonna let somebody call him homophobic when I know that he's not." She continues, "I'm saying this because I see him around these p-, around gays, and he treats them with the same respect he treats everybody. He never acts uncomfortable, and he just don't care."
-When she asked Offset why he used that word (queer), she says he responded by saying, "'I didn't even know that was a word for gays.'"
-She goes on to say that she's never even heard the word before and then again says that people need to be educated instead of bashed.
