The singer shared his views on being child-free in a post on his Instagram page, saying he could understand a woman deciding not to have children.

However, Mr Real drew a distinction between women and men who make the same choice, claiming that men who do not want children are homosexuals.

“It is understandable if a woman says she don’t wanna have kids in this life, very understandable. But you as a man saying you don’t want kids, bro you be agege,” he wrote.

His comment quickly generated mixed reactions on social media, with some users finding humour in his remarks while others criticised the singer for what they described as a biased view.

Some respondents argued that choosing not to have children is a personal decision and does not determine a person’s sexual orientation.

The debate has since drawn attention to broader conversations around marriage, parenthood and the growing number of people who consciously choose to remain child-free.
