After facing intense backlash earlier this month for stating that he goes to the gynecologist with his teenage daughter each year to check her hymen, rapper T.I. defended himself this week during an appearance on the Facebook Watch show Red Table Talk. T.I. told host Jada Pinkett Smith that he thinks a false narrative about his comments has been sensationalized but he also defended his choice to protect his daughter from the little slimy, grimy, chubby-fingered little boys who want to just come and defile and destroy the sanctity that I have.
The rapper made the initial comments during an episode of the podcast Ladies Like Us, which was released earlier this month. T.I. was speaking with hosts Nazanin Mandi and Nadia Moham about parenting when he was asked about whether hes had the sex talk with his daughters, BuzzFeed News reported.
The rapper, who has six children, brought up how he handles the discussion with his oldest daughter, 18-year-old Deyjah Harris.

His original comments faced swift backlash on social media.

This is horrible on so many levels, tweeted prominent gynecologist Jennifer Gunter.
