Cam Newton Attempts To Explain His Women Comments, Insists He’s Not Sexist

Cam Newton is finally opening up about his controversial comments about women … insisting he’s not sexist.

Nearly two weeks after Newton was captured on camera saying he believed a real woman is someone who, among other things, knows how to cook and “when to be quiet” … he attempted to clarify the comments in a new video on his YouTube page.

Cam admitted that he should have expounded on the remarks so they were more inclusive and less abrasive … explaining what he was trying to say was “you can’t expect so much from a person and give so little.”

“I should have said on top of what I also said and mentioned that not only should a woman know when to be quiet, a man also should know when to be quiet,” he said.

Cam continued, “Whether it’s being whatever you need to be as a human being — man or female — you should be that. And, I think not going into depth like I should have, cost me.”

In the video, Newton repeated over and over again that he did not believe men are superior to women. He also insisted he’s a great father and a good member of his community.

“I never wanted to demonize or to shrink the woman’s power in America,” Newton said.

As we reported, Cam was ripped for his initial comments — athletes, journalists and fans all over called them incredibly offensive. In fact, Travis Kelce‘s girlfriend, Kayla Nicole, said Cam was a straight-up “bozo” for the remarks.
