Maglera Doe Boy says he will not shy away from loving his friends loudly to perpetuate toxic masculinity.

A social media troll questioned the rapper's sexuality after he shared images of him hugging and holding his friend's hand.  

Maglera Doe Boy denied accusations of him stepping out of the closet, saying he was comfortable with himself and his friends.

“No, my brother. What you are looking at is a auti who is secure about his masculinity so much he is not scared to embrace the people who love him. This image above your tweet is my friend Slash. He was my friend since we were in primary school. He was a gangster and they shot him seven times two weeks ago. Is it also uncomfortable that I held his hand in the last image I took with him?” he said.

“Those fathers and big brothers who didn’t show love to their sons and little brothers always have the saddest ends to their lives when they need it because they were trying to be tough all the time. They don’t even know how to tell family they love them. Nna hake tsabe ho rata bagotsi Baka le ma laaitie aka. Le pela bohloko mauti.
