Does anyone have any opinion on why Kanye West keeps taking his wife out places naked?

I don’t believe it’s her idea. He has often declared the women he has dated and married as his ‘muse’, so my assumption will be that he is behind it.

It’s bothering me on so many levels. There’s the worry it is part of an abusive/coercive relationship that’s just happening in plain sight. Because he is wealthy then it is fine, whereas the truth might be she needs help.

There’s the worry from a feminist angle that he might be trying to prove that all women are no better than prostitutes. He seemed to be furious when his ex wife dressed provocatively and yet us happy for his new wife to be constantly naked or partially clothed wearing sex clothes.

Then there’s the racial thoughts that I have. Would he be doing this to a an American black woman and get no negative commentary? I honestly don’t think so. I think they’d be a huge backlash if he was walking around with a black woman in gimp masks and naked under rain macs. It’s interesting to me that the women he likes to humiliate are light skinned. He calls them ‘cream of wheat’. Again is part of the thrill the humiliation? I don’t know. But every time I see another set of photos of him completely covered from head to toe and her naked it makes me feel very uneasy.

I just see it as "The Emperor's New Clothes" syndrome
Attention seeking, self obsessed and mentally disturbed.

But then, I don't like the guy, there's something creepy about him.

RudolfsLeftToe · 06/02/2024 13:03

He’s obviously still pissed off at Kim K for leaving him so he’s picked someone who looks very similar to her and is fulfilling his punishment / abuse / humiliation fantasies through her. Granted this isn’t my theory but when I read it it made a lot of sense.

Amara123 · 06/02/2024 13:04

I think the reason so many of us suspect abuse is that she has no "voice" in this. Agree with previous poster about contrast with Miley Cyrus.

All the social media/interviews are done by him.
She is like a sex doll being brought places. Mute, naked. It just doesn't read as an empowered woman exploring her sexuality.

Jk8 · 06/02/2024 13:04

I'm 50/50 on it - I do believe he's a terrible person & abusive as fuck ......but really who is this girl without him, no fame, no wealth, no social standing (in the entertainment field) & none of her family/friends have leaked any critisism of her/them ??? Surely she has to be in on it to some degree

CactusMactus · 06/02/2024 13:27

They just look so silly!

She is loving the attention and the rewards of being married to a very rich man. She is probably astute and playing the long game of being married to him for a decent amount of time before pulling the plug and getting a divorce and playing the victim card saying he made her dress that way to humiliate her.

When it's all done and dusted she will be a wealthy woman without having to 'entertain' that douchebag of a husband every night.

But they are not married, if you see the daily mail link somebody posted, it says they had a non-legal ceremony

vacay · 06/02/2024 14:07

Honestly, I think she's enjoying it. She seems to be a very intelligent woman, she is an architect, she has a high IQ (which Kanye has boasted about) I think she knows what she's doing with Kanye and is making the most her of time with him.
Kanye got very upset with that reporter the other day questioning if Bianca was being controlled. I think she seems happy enough to go along with Kanye and be his 'muse'
I do wonder what Kanye kids think though lol oh stepmum is naked again wearing a gimp mask , no big deal 🤷‍♀️

It’s starting to give me R Kelly vibes. Just another abuser hiding in plain sight.

She may not be underage, but the push towards parading her as a human sex toy makes me wonder if there might be pressure for her to perform with others for him.

I agree! It’s giving puff daddy or diddy or whatever he wants to be called. Hiding in plain sight with what he did to Cassie.

kanye is abusive, you could see it with Kim, I saw one episode of her show and she was saying how he and her went to a trainer and said she wanted to lose 16lbs, the trainer said she looked great and advised no weight loss. He went ballistic and said she needed to find out how to get Kim to lose weight. And then there’s how he acted post divorce.

yes there is mental illness but there’s also being a narcissistic abuser. 2 things can be true at the same time and I think he’s given too much grace for his mental illness

Has anyone seen the film 'Idiocracy'? A satire when it was made. Looks like everyday life now.

I think about this movie almost every day. Also dystopian films made in the 1980’s that seemed like impossible entertainment. It feels like we’re walking into both scenarios with our eyes wide open sometimes.

SeenYourArse · 06/02/2024 12:21

It’s absolutely a coercive relationship, he doesn’t love or respect her (as he absolutely did love Kim and didn’t like her dressing provocatively or showing too much skin as he said it’s not appropriate for a married woman) he’s using Bianca as a prop for publicity and to get Kim’s attention and it’s abusive. It’s actually sickening that this is playing out in public, he’s mentally very unwell and needs an intervention.

Really? He was very happy to have Kim pose naked to "break the internet", $$$

Probably not married, but probably has an iron clad contract.

I cant believe i know this but yeah he had a huge change of heart around the time she wore that actually quite cool Thierry mugler wet look to the met gala, he said it was too much and didn’t want her dressed like that. Perhaps it’s just on his terms

Its not supposed to read like that. Empowered woman is not the role in the script in the contract she signed.

Begsthequestion · 06/02/2024 15:57

I figured it was some kind of humiliation kink they're into. I think it's grim to nonconsensually involve the general public, who are just going about their day like in Venice, in their sex life.

Agreeing with @Honeychickpea here. There was never a time (bar the grandma's curtain dress debacle) where Kim dressed 'modestly' around him including a nude photoshoot & cut out lace wedding dress.... & I doubt he was ever really capable of loving her the way he loves himself or she wouldn't have divorced him within 10 years & with 4 kids regardless of what people say about her eyes its a different ball game in your 30's+ with children

But I agree with others that his currant 'wife' (regardless of wether their married) has something to gain from this either now or post split & I find her family/friends complete lack of public critisism/legal efforts (if you felt your sister/daughter/cousin was in an abusive relationship & she was seen walking around naked in public you'd have a pretty solid arguement) pretty much confirmation that she enjoys this too some extent & there accepting that.

Janetime · 06/02/2024 16:59

I just looked at rhe images of them , her totally naked in the transparent rain mac and him completely covered and his face mask on. She literally walks about totally naked now. And he hides. I’m clearly not clever enough to understand what point they think they’re making, but it’s seriously fucked up. I assume it’s for publicity and they think they are being clever.

I don’t think she feels humiliated. I think she feels special. A star. It’s just odd.

Tinkerbyebye · 06/02/2024 17:13

They are both mentally unwell and someone, no idea who, needs to stage an intervention

MissRheingold · 06/02/2024 17:26

@RedPinkPeach

'She’s humiliating herself now. She could have already cut ties and launched her career. She has an amazing body and I’m sure she can be famous for being famous like KK.'

Probably a clause in the marriage/business agreement that she has to stay married to him for x amount of time.

LlynTegid · 06/02/2024 17:41

I think your concerns are valid OP. Seems even worse than the control probably exercised by Donald Trump on Melania, or examples of women with low self-esteem that are nearer home.

SummerFeverVenice · 06/02/2024 17:45

I think it’s a way to earn a living. Kanye is known to spend money faster than he earns it. He used the Yeezy brand to get out of $53M in debt, that brand is now passé. He and Bianca are likely getting paid a lot to give the paparazzi clickbait especially since many of the photos being released are from indoors that he has taken himself. No one wants to see him naked, so Bianca is the one that strips off.

Anjea · 06/02/2024 17:54

How has she not been arrested yet for public indecency?

I have wondered the same thing, but then I was thinking don’t most places where she has been naked in public have only a fine? So it is possible the fines are a cost of doing business. What is a €1000 fine if you’re being paid €15000 to walk around Venice naked for the day?

TheTimeIsNowMaybeNow · 06/02/2024 18:06

She's just another attention seeker who's probably getting rich doing it

Shadowonasun · 06/02/2024 18:12

So a woman married (or 'married') a man who is:

openly antisemitic, racist, praising Trump, misogynist, sexist, in a weird cult ('church'), dresses and acts like a total fruit loop, has a God complex, thinks that sun shines out of his arse, openly threatened his ex-wife's (now also ex) boyfriend, encouraged his fans to bully him/scare/stalk the said BF, bullied all his exes (and all of them spoke about it publicly), the list goes on. It's not like he's trying to hide anything, it's all well known.

So she shacked up with him knowing all that and expected what exactly? To 'change' him? Nah. She knows what she's doing perfectly fine. Why does she do it? Nobody knew who the hell she was before Kanye ('successful model'? please). Pretty much everyone knows who she is now. Just think about all those tv shows ('my life with Kanye'), book deals, etc post-'marriage'.

So in the same vein, if some woman started dating - say - Tom Cruise. Would she be reasonable to expect him to be anything else than a batshit Scientologist? And when he inevitably proved to be just that - a batshit Scientologist, could she cry 'coercion' then?
