Grammy-winning rapper Doechii has found herself at the center of an online debate. During a recent episode of Hot Ones Versus, the Florida-born artist revealed her biggest dating red flag: 'being a straight man'.

The statement was made in an exchange with her DJ and collaborator, Miss Milan. It was quick to spark discussions across social media platforms. While some fans defended Doechii’s right to have personal dating preferences, others criticized her for generalizing an entire group.

Glock Topickz took to its official X (formerly Twitter) to share a clip from the Hot Ones Versus' Doechii vs. DJ Miss Milan episode, captioning,

"Doechii reveals ‘being a straight man’ is the biggest red flag when dating"

Netizens were quick to note the X post as they gathered in the comments to voice their thoughts. Below are what some of them had to remark:

"She spoke the truth", declared an X user.
"There are people who shouldn't be famous", criticized another.
"It’s “love a Black woman from infinity to infinity” until she’s open about her queerness and dating red flags.", noted a third.
"She can be open about all she wants, she doesn’t hve to bring a straight man into her red flags if she’s not dating us to begin with. Talk about the gay ppl she dates those are the ones with flags she’ll hve to worry about.", added a fourth.

Others also chimed in:

"Noted for this preference to be aired. Let's move on shall we? We all have our own preferences, as long as it doesn't impact others negatively, let's just move on...", opined a netizen.
"If you knew Doechii from the start this should not be surprising. And Tampa got some cute bi's", penned another.
"They should’ve did this inorganic push at the heights of the alphabet agenda, perfect era for her", stated a third.
"Sooo you rather be with a gay man when dating this world is so weird", joked a fourth.
"I mean, who cares? People are allowed to speak their minds. It doesn’t affect straight men one way or another unless you’re just uber sensitive about it", expressed a fifth.
