Former All-Star point guard Gilbert Arenas didn’t hold back when talking about the LGBT community in a recent interview.
During a conversation with Vlad TV, Arenas called the LGBT community the “most unfair group” in the world.
“I think it’s the most unfair group walking the planet right now. They have a playbook that only they’re playing by. No one else gets to see this playbook, but we’re being judged by everything that’s in this playbook,” Arenas said. “But we don’t know it. So, there’s no open dialogue about what is appropriate and what’s not. We only find out after we f— up. That’s unfair. That’s f—ing unfair. You can’t do that. How do I know something’s wrong until you give it to me?”
Arenas provided somewhat of an explanation as to why he feels this way.
“Just words, phrases. Like he, she, it, they. … How do we know? You’re making it up as we go,” he explained. “There’s not like there’s this f—ing dictionary of updates, and we can sit there, click it and say, ‘All right I can’t say … they took this out. They added this in.’ We’re just learning, right? That’s really unfair that you can cancel somebody on a playbook that only you have.”
