A Black lesbian couple has lightened up social media with their much publicized engagement with them receiving tons of homophobic reactions mostly from fellow Black people.

Erica Nicole and her girlfriend Adia Marie recently got engaged in Hawaii and shared pictures and video of the event on Twitter.

The post was initially met with love and before some Twitter users, mostly Africans, flooded the post with homophobic comments.

A Twitter user Isaac Anyama called same s£x attraction a “psychiatric and spiritual issue.”

He wrote: “To be attracted to same sex is Psychiatric and spiritual issue. May they come to the saving grace and knowledge of our LORD and Saviour Jesus Christ!”

Another user called homos£xuality an “understandable sin”, writing: “Being a gay is the worst lie you can ever lie to yourself It doesn’t make sense and it’s an understandable sin.”

“What a waste Jesus christ, rest in peace ladies”, wrote another Twitter user.

Celebrating the couple, Twitter user @deevonraee wrote: “Congratulations!!! don’t know why all the men in these replies think they’re entitled to something they were never gonna have anyways. The ring is beautiful and you two are even more beautiful!”

Below is the video and screenshots of some of the comments:
