The insult isn’t related to the rent boy profession, it’s the implication of homosexual activity that is the intent.

I always assumed they were called the rent boys as they all went for the coin when the russian took over. no one was ever accusing them of being gay (except Le Saux perhaps just because he read the Grauniad)

You may well be right about the mercenary nature of players in the Abramovich era, but I also think that the chant references the fact that the Kings Road area of Chelsea was where affluent and influential gentlemen could buy a bit of #@&%!.

This is the Lukaku dong song all over again.
They said that was racist.
How was it racist? Because of the length of the dong? Why is having a long dong and being black mutually exclusive?
Whomever made that song sure didn't think that way so obviously it's those that are triggered that made that link in their heads is it not?
So who's the racist?
Those singing or those complaining?

It's the same now with this.
It's those complaining who are homophobic or whatever they are accusing.

Only a gay man could make that claim. I'm not suggesting you are gay, I'm suggesting it is not a straight man's call

This.... I didn't realise people read so much into it.

I chant(ed) it because the point is the players were selling themselves for cash rather than because Chelsea had any actual history or culture as a club


Any confirmation that actual rent boys find it offensive?

If I said you had sex with men, as a means of an insult, that would be homophobic (I'm assuming you are a man)

If I said you look like a gay man, as a means of an insult, that would be homophobic

To call someone a rent boy, as a means of an insult, is homophobic
