She also noted that men do not need love, but all they need is respect. The model, however, added that to get respect, they must also earn it.
She wrote: “Men don’t need love, all they need is respect.
“These are two different things, bro If that’s all you need, what’s the difference between your partner and any random person. ’cause anyone can respect you. But there’s respect in love too.
“And those men that keep demanding respect up and down like their lives depend on it, hope you know it’s earned? Stop acting like a dog and treat others with respect too.”
