Curry says the lack of attention has made her question if something is wrong with her.

Steph Curry and Ayesha Curry are one of the power couples in basketball right now. While Steph Curry is out here winning championships with the Golden State Warriors, Ayesha has become a successful entrepreneur who is also an established cook with her own restaurant. Ayesha was recently on an episode of Jada Pinkett Smith's Red Table Talk where she spoke about her relationship with Curry and how she's had to fend off groupies in the past.

While Curry's comments on groupies had already been seen in a teaser video, it was what she had to say about male attention that got people upset. As she explains in the episode, she doesn't get very much attention from men, which had made her insecure about herself. She is constantly comparing herself to Steph in that regard, which has forced her to reflect inward.

"Something that really bothers me, and honestly has given me a sense of a little bit of an insecurity, is the fact that yeah there are all these women, like, throwing themselves (at him), but me, like the past 10 years, I don't have any of that," Curry said. "I have zero – this sounds weird – but, like, male attention, and so then I begin to internalize it, and I'm like, 'Is something wrong with me?'"  

As soon as the clip made it to social media, the Twitterverse exploded with memes dragging Ayesha through the mud. Many people took exception to her comments, saying with such a loving husband, she shouldn't look towards other men to validate her. 

Some believe her comments were taken out of context while others are outraged that she would say such a thing. Where do you stand on this issue?
