Draya Michele recently made a comment where she joked about getting shot in the foot. She said - ” I want you to like me so much you shoot me in the foot,” to Tory Lanez and fans linked this comment with rap superstar Megan Thee Stallion. Since then fans have been getting very angry about the comment. One fan talking about the incident wrote - This is what happens when you have normalised abusive relationships to the point where you think getting shot means love holy s**t and another wrote - so sad. and thats as simple of an explanation as it gets. people (mostly women) think the more abusive their partner is, the harder the love is. idk where it stems from, maybe parents physical discipline? Take a look at the tweets.

It's the cultural glamorization of toxic monogamy in a culture that is also largely misogynistic fr. All that obsessively checking on ppl, going thru phones, beating up ppls exs, cheating for revenge, is NOT cute or normal but folx act like it is. It's abuse & it's sickening.
