Megyn Kelly, a former Fox News host and current SiriusXM podcaster, has riled up the left once more after announcing a significant policy shift on her Friday program.
As “Pride Month” got underway, Kelly, who has emerged as a key advocate for women’s rights as the left pushes transgenderism, particularly in high school and collegiate athletics, declared that she is done referring to individuals by their “preferred pronouns.”
She began the portion of the show by bringing up the cover of this month’s issue of Glamour UK magazine, which has a photo of a pregnant woman who is dressed as a man. She then went on to discuss the topic itself.
“I, for one, will not be celebrating this dishonest,” Kelly said. “In fact, I’m in a very different place when it comes to this entire issue.”
Following her declaration that she would no longer use “preferred pronouns,” Kelly went into great length about her history as an early supporter of “trans rights” and the terminology the trans community insisted upon. “I didn’t see any harm in it,” she claimed.
Later in the program, she declared that “truth and reality” now serve as her compass in life and that she will therefore refrain from using preferred pronouns out of concern for children’s and women’s safety and for women’s rights.
She stated that she would speak to a trans person with “kindness and empathy,” but most likely would strive to stay away from any circumstance requiring the usage of a pronoun.
“But I will not take this gateway drug anymore,” she declared, “because I have a daughter. Because I am a woman. An adult human female.”
Quite a few people on Twitter agreed with Kelly and lauded her decision to take a firm stance in support of women’s rights while simultaneously making a commitment to refrain from intentionally hurting or insulting anyone who identifies as transgender.
When I lost my job over this in 2015, I remember feeling so betrayed to watch Megyn play along with this crap. Seven years later, this is so healing to watch. Thank you, @megynkelly , for the humility and the courage it took to speak this. 😭😭 https://t.co/1HTPhPLrgk

It’s been a tough & sometimes lonely road for those of us who saw through this early, but what matters now is that enough people see the truth before our ability to discern & stand up for it is taken from us.

In the past, Kelly has urged for women to “find your voices” and strike back against the left’s cultural and sociological assault on their traditional places.
“If we don’t find our voices and start speaking up against this nonsense, we can kiss every woman’s space goodbye!” Kelly said during a show segment in April. “We can kiss women’s rights goodbye.”
“We can kiss sororities goodbye,” she added. “We can take off our tops and our underwear and do our yoga in front of perverted men who just want to get off watching us til the cows come home. Stick your daughter in the sorority, let ‘em at her.”
“Find your voices, ladies — and the men who support us,” Kelly continued. “Otherwise, this is our future. I’m sorry. I’m done. I’m done. I don’t want to deal with this s*** at Tri Delta, Kappa Kappa Gamma, in the women’s locker room. You can be supportive of trans people and what they’re going through without surrendering to this madness!”
