Rapper Ne-Yo called out parents who let their children pick their gender, saying they have “almost forgotten” what their role is supposed to be.

The musician made the remarks during an appearance on VladTV with Gloria Velez when asked about transgenderism.

“Parents have almost forgotten what the role of a parent is,” he said. “It’s like, okay, if your little boy comes to you and says, ‘Daddy, I want to be a girl.’ And you just let him rock with that? You just let–, he’s five.”

“If you let this five-year-old boy decide to eat candy all day, he’s going to do that,” he continued. “Like when did it become a good idea to let a five-year-old, let a six-year-old, let a 12-year-old make a life-changing decision for they self? When did that happen? Like, I don’t understand that. I don’t get that.”

He said it was absurd that a young boy “can’t drive a car yet, but he can decide his sex?”

Ne-Yo said that if a boy tells his parents he wants to become a girl, his parents should ask him what a girl is.

“What is he gonna do? He’s gonna say well, he might want to play with dolls. All right, you want to play with dolls? Fine play with dolls but you’re a boy,” he said. “‘I wanna wear pink.’ All right cool, wear pink, but you’re a boy wearing pink.”

“I have no issue with the L-,B-,G-, I have no problem with none of y’all, with nobody,” he said. “I just personally come from an era where a man was a man and a woman was a woman. And it wasn’t but two genders and that’s just how I rocked it. Now you could identify as goldfish if you feel like it, that ain’t my business. It becomes my business when you try to make me play the game with you. I’m not going to call you a goldfish, but you want to be a goldfish you go be a goldfish. It’s just, we live in a weird time man.”
