USHER - USHER WANTS MEN TO SHOW WOMEN GREATER RESPECT

R+B star USHER has pleaded with men to start treating women with respect and stop turning them into sex objects.

The YOU MAKE ME WANNA singer, whose former girlfriends include TLC's ROZONDA 'CHILLI' THOMAS and NAOMI CAMPBELL, is unimpressed with the way the sexes behave towards each other and believes relationships would work out better if couples returned to more traditional forms of courtship.

Usher says, "Every relationship I ever got into started off with, 'You're the only for me,' and then that male ego comes in."

When it comes to courtship, he advises men to "treat that woman like a lady", adding, "Don't treat her like a ho just because the music says so.

"Women, treat yourselves like ladies. Don't move like that just because the music says so."

Of his time living with SEAN 'P DIDDY' COMBS, he comments, "I wanna save some s**t for my book one day. I'll put it this way, there was a lot of sex."
