Amber Rose has schooled her antigay followers on social media.

The model, who recently divorced rapper Wiz Khalifa, spoke out against those who criticized a recent Instagram post of their son, Sebastian. The photograph showed the 3-year-old wearing one of Rose's wigs, an act that some said would make the boy grow up to be a gay man.

"Wow you people are so smart huh? Putting on a wig is gonna make a baby gay?" Rose stated in the comments. "Straight guys, do yourselves a favour: Put on a wig and see if your turned on by another man.... I'll wait."

Addressing female critics, Rose, 32, instructed them to "grow the fuck up and educate yourselves" and "read a book you remedial fucks."

"Throw one of your wigs on your BF or your Dad. Yay! He's gay! Oh wait... no sorry, you're all just fucking idiots," she added.

Rose, a Philadelphia native, came to fame in music videos such as Ludacris's "What Them Girls Like" and Nicki Minaj's "Massive Attack." An artist in her own right, Rose has released the singles "Fame" and "Loaded." Her talk show, The Amber Rose Show, recently debuted on VH1, but LGBT fans might also know her as a former guest judge on RuPaul's Drag Race.

Rose is also known as an advocate of empowering women and affirming their sexuality. She organized a 2015 SlutWalk, raising awareness of how women are shamed for being sexually active. Funny or Die released a video with this message, "Walk of No Shame With Amber Rose," which went viral last year.
