Rapper TI, full-name Clifford Joseph Harris, Jr., received a backlash after claiming that he takes his daughter, 18-year-old Deyjah Harris, to be examined by a gynecologist annually to verify whether she remains a virgin.

TI made the comments this week during an interview on the Ladies Like Us podcast. The interview has been removed from the Internet.

During the episode in question, TI stated: “This is what we do: right after the birthday, we celebrate. And generally, like the day after the party, she's enjoying her gifts, I put a sticky note on the door: 'Gyno. Morning. 9:30 ', as reported by the New York Times.

The Atlanta rapper went on to explain that the doctor, "maintaining a high level of professionalism," always tells him that his daughter has to sign a privacy agreement before the results can be shared, he revealed. Also, according to TI the doctor tells you that a hymen can be broken in many ways that do not involve sex.

“I say: Look, doc, she doesn't ride horses, she doesn't ride a bicycle, she doesn't play sports. Man, just check the hymen, please, and give me my results back quickly,”he said, referring to the results that legally belong to your daughter.

The comments of the interpreter of "Whatever you like" provoked harsh criticism that led the presenters of the program, Nazanin Mandi and Nadia Moham, to apologize. Mandi and Moham posted on Instagram that they regretted their own reaction to TI's statements, but said they were taken by surprise.

TI has not made statements to the media or social media. Her daughter, who is a model, has also avoided commenting directly on the matter.

However, he has approved with “likes” the comments against his father's statements.

In 2018, three United Nations agencies, the World Health Organization, UN Human Rights and UN Women called for a ban on so-called virginity tests, calling them harmful and medically meaningless.
