The video of Benin, aged 10, when talking about an episode he had with a classmate. In the recording, published by the boy’s mother, KimberlyBenin said it was a “serious matter”.
“I was talking to Ágata and, out of nowhere, Luis said: ‘Hey, you gay, what nail is that?’”, told Benim who added: “Then I said: why am I gay? I’m an artist, you bag mouth.”
“Then I said: am I really gay? Prove it, prove it”he added, revealing that he did not receive a response from the boy: “Since you didn’t say anything, tell me something: where did you learn to say that? He said: ‘On YouTube, you dumbass’.”
“Ze mané? Do you want me to tell the pro (teacher)? He said no. I said: okay, I don’t care. Then I told the pro and then ‘board, bye! Alright guys, problem solved”he finished.
In the caption of the publication, Kimberlly wrote: “When Benin painted her nails, on the same day I had to have a complex conversation with someone close to me after a speech full of prejudice.”
“No, I’m not gay, I don’t have a place to speak on this agenda. But I’m a mother, I’m a daughter, I’m a friend, I’m human and it’s okay for me to enter agendas that are not my reality, but that give me the minimum literacy to live in society. This conversation crossed me in so many ways, that I didn’t even have time to have a conversation with Benin and try to shield him from any kind of violence that he could suffer at school”, he spoke.
“Before I spoke, before I taught anything, he came to ask me to record content for his followers, about ‘a serious subject’. This is my son, an artist. !”, concluded.
