Tweeps are also reminded that this is not the first time David Tlale has been accused of either rape and or sexual assault. As they are recalling some of the past instances where allegations of this nature were leveled against him but never gotten any media attention to them.
“A lot of gay men get away with a lot of disrespectful, dehumanizing, cruel and evil things especially against women bcz they are gay. David tlale raped a lil girl and not even one of the “feminist” celebrities said a thing. If it was a regular we’d be taking a different story” wrote Will Dunhill

Evidently, tweeps are certainly not buying what David Tlale is selling following him denying the rape allegations leveled against him. Over the weekend, a young fashion aspirant took to social media to voice some of his grievances against the fashion mogul.
“This is the reason why rape victims of the well known keep quiet and don’t open a case. That “Consult with team of Experts” is so loud while you are a nobody who will depend on legal aid lawyers. Already you have lost the case because money talks …. Its sickening. David Tlale” wrote Nceby Cbu

Tweeps are also conflicted amongst themselves as some have pointed out that Tlale won’t face the cancel culture of his social standing as well as stature. Meanwhile some tweeps have compared Tlale to media personality and reality TV star Somizi Mhlongo. Who in the past have been accused for sexual assault as well but never faced the music.
“David Tlale and Somizi are here to show us that rape is a serious crime in South Africa that gets you cancelled unless you gay..” wrote Chris Excel

“Somizi’s fan base is mostly heterosexuals, especially heterosexual women. David Tlale is LOVED and protected by heterosexuals, especially the ones who are looking for freebies. Now why are y’all pretending like these men are shielded by the queer community????” wrote Nampree
