This was a good example of how social media talks a lot but doesn’t really say anything. Ayesha Curry gave a pretty mundane opinion about how she likes to dress sexy for her husband and isn’t a fan of how so many women are basically naked all the time.
If you didn’t agree with it or felt she was judging your IG boutique outfits, that says a lot more about you than Mrs. Curry.
It generated such rhetoric on social media, Steph himself had to address it.
Spoke w/ Steph Curry about Ayesha's tweets. Said he was surprised ppl took offense to it. He thought Twitter was for expressing opinions.

Steph Curry said all Ayesha did was express her style preference. It was not a judgement.

Steph Curry said he's pretty sure some ppl look up to his wife Ayesha bc of what she stands for, how she carries herself & her priorities.

Steph's also proud of Ayesha bc "she has her own following. Ppl care about what she says. You have to be true to self & she's best at that."

The one thing Steph is wrong about is Twitter being about giving opinions. Twitter is more about fake outrage, not respecting opinions, name-calling and ignorant behavior.
Sadly, the Currys had to learn that the hard way.
