00:00:00.480
Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show, your home for open, honest, and provocative conversations.
00:00:11.940
Hey everyone, I'm Megyn Kelly. Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show.
00:00:15.280
The gender madness continues for more brands replacing females with males in their campaigns,
00:00:23.680
Now we got to look at the bulge when we're just trying to get our bikinis.
00:00:26.820
Please. Okay, pardon me, but that's disgusting and no one wants to look at it.
00:00:33.400
Biological men continuing to win over females in women's athletic events
00:00:37.900
and drag queen conventions being attended by children as the adults there say it makes them feel reassured to see the children there.
00:00:49.180
Over the weekend, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre claimed that trans kids belong to all of us.
00:00:57.960
Well, if that's true, then I want a say on how the trans kids will or will not receive medical, quote, care as a minor.
00:01:07.300
My decision is they have to wait until they're at least 18 before we start chopping their penises off, their breasts off, and so on.
00:01:15.100
Okay? If they're my kids, that's my decision, Karine.
00:01:17.820
There's plenty to get to today, and we will discuss it with two of our favorites, Britt Mayer and Carrie Prejean Bowler, former Miss California USA's moms and co-founders of The Battle Cry, which is a group that is working to fight back against all of this madness.
00:01:38.980
I've been thinking about you two a lot because I would say when you first started coming on the show and we started to discuss these issues, you were farther to the right.
00:01:48.960
It's not really a right-left issue, but you were more hardcore on this stuff than I was.
00:01:53.420
And over the past whatever months, let's say 9, 10, I don't know.
00:01:57.280
I mean, it's been a yearly thing, but I have moved so much closer to where you are, and I want to thank you because you've been voices in my ear that, you know, when you hear sense spoken, when you hear truth spoken articulately, it moves you.
00:02:12.980
And like on an intellectual level, on an emotional level, you know it when you hear it, and it's like your eyes open, the sun comes up, and you realize, wait, I was wrong.
00:02:23.740
You know, you realize what they're saying is true, and what I've been saying, while maybe compassionate, et cetera, is leading to, it's part of the problem.
00:02:34.780
So I just want to start by saying that to you, because you guys, Kelly J. Keene, what Riley Gaines did, what happened to her, the Leah Thomas, all of it has helped really change my thinking on it.
00:02:54.280
And I recommend everybody follow Britt and Carrie on Instagram and all the places, because they have a lot of smart things to say.
00:03:03.360
These stories are dominating right now, absolutely dominating the news.
00:03:10.200
We've got women's cycling is all but gone to us.
00:03:13.780
I mean, it's worse, I think, than women's swimming, right?
00:03:17.700
There's a story every other day now about a trans person winning a women's cycling event.
00:03:24.260
And the most recent, let me show the picture of the most recent one, where the person who won is a biological male.
00:03:29.800
And this person gets up on the podium after it's all done and says, gee, I don't know where everybody is.
00:03:50.820
It's a century route, they say, that takes you 100 miles onto a special section of gravel right down the seam of the Colorado-Utah border.
00:03:59.820
This is a biological man who says he's a trans woman who's racing.
00:04:03.360
His name was, until two minutes ago, Wesley Mumford, and he was a sheriff's deputy.
00:04:09.420
Now he says he's Leslie Mumford and has won in the women's 40 to 49 age group out of 14 participants and was 6 out of 33 for women overall.
00:04:26.760
I placed 6th in the overall and the first race of the Colorado Summer of Gravel Series, so a lot of hitters were here.
00:04:32.380
My effort also landed me first in my age group.
00:04:35.840
Lastly, I have no idea why so many people bailed before the podiums, but they did.
00:04:42.280
Does anyone here have any idea why the biological women, the women, bailed when it came time to celebrate Leslie Wesley's win?
00:04:51.760
I think that what we're seeing is, like you were just saying, Megan, that we've been polite for so long.
00:04:58.300
And we thought that being polite was going to somehow make this all go away, but it's getting worse.
00:05:05.920
But as it gets worse, I think that women are becoming a lot stronger in their convictions and realizing what's at stake and saying,
00:05:14.580
hey, look, if we don't if we don't protest this now, like this madness is just going to it's going to become this tidal wave that's absolutely going to destroy women's sports,
00:05:23.760
which we're already seeing the beginning of that.
00:05:26.080
I thought it was interesting, too, that Inga Thompson, she called she's a professional or was a professional cycler before her breast cancer.
00:05:41.120
But she had called on a protest right before this and said, when you hear that start bell, you take a knee.
00:05:49.420
This is the way to send a message to sponsors, to coaches, to teams, to the public that we're fed up, that we cannot have men dominating our women's spaces in sports.
00:05:58.880
This woman, Inga, just so people know, three time Olympian, Inga Thompson, three time Olympian, ten time national champion, three time world medalist, two time podium finisher for the women's tour to France.
00:06:10.060
And she tweeted out the silent protests are starting.
00:06:13.300
She loved the fact that none of the other women went up to the podium.
00:06:16.040
The women are refusing to stand on the podium with the man.
00:06:21.440
Empty podium, except for the male, who naturally finished atop all the women in the women's category, despite there being a non-binary slash trans category he easily could have competed in.
00:06:43.260
They're sick individuals, and they get off from beating women.
00:06:46.860
I mean, bravo to Riley Gaines, who is calling out, what, nine athletes, nine female athletes.
00:06:59.260
You know you wouldn't have a chance to compete if you had to compete against a dude.
00:07:03.180
You know you wouldn't have gotten all of your accomplishments and trophies if you had to compete against a man.
00:07:09.040
We all know that men have stronger bones and skeletal structure.
00:07:13.420
We know that they have an advantage over women.
00:07:15.620
So I love that women are getting the balls to stand up and say, no more.
00:07:29.600
So Inga, because she's taking a stance, this is the badass female cyclist.
00:07:36.880
She is calling for fairness in sports, and she's being punished for it.
00:07:43.080
Okay, so there's this group, Sinisca Cycling, C-Y-N-I-S-C-A Cycling, and she was its director.
00:07:51.420
I mean, like you can't get much better in cycling, women's cycling, than this woman.
00:07:56.100
And I know Lance Armstrong a little bit, and he's told me how great she is as well.
00:08:02.220
And they removed her as director because they said she'd gotten too political.
00:08:09.580
We wanted her when she wasn't political, but this is political as opposed to just standing up for women's rights.
00:08:14.240
And she came out and said as follows, I am gobsmacked.
00:08:17.120
I got taken off the team in late November when I was diagnosed with breast cancer.
00:08:21.520
I told them I needed to step down because I needed to take care of my health.
00:08:24.720
I went through surgery and had a double mastectomy.
00:08:32.900
I've made it clear I'm not attacking this other trans woman who won, who's within rights to race.
00:08:41.020
She goes on to add, this is exactly why people don't speak up, because this is what happens when you do.
00:08:46.140
I mean, if somebody like that can get booted off of this cycling board, she's right.
00:08:52.060
It can happen to anybody, and it's meant to scare everyone.
00:08:55.600
Well, as a person who's been canceled before, I know you have as well, Megan and Britt also.
00:09:11.580
So if we women link arms and say, you know what?
00:09:36.620
This guy, Britt, who won the cycling race where all the women refused to take the podium with him,
00:09:43.080
I mean, it's so galling to me that he won in the 40 to 49 age group, 40 to 49.
00:09:47.080
You know how hard it is for these professional women to stay in shape?
00:09:50.700
You know, that is you're getting into the premenopausal, menopausal era there.
00:09:55.920
A lot of these women have probably given birth to children and had all sorts of challenges.
00:10:06.780
They're out there practicing their craft, you know, practicing hours and hours and every
00:10:11.040
This guy who was living as a man up until six years ago, 2017, working in the sheriff's
00:10:17.760
department as a deputy, as I pointed out, suddenly says, I'm a woman.
00:10:20.940
I mean, talk about past male puberty, past everything.
00:10:25.720
Then suddenly decides as a woman and goes and steals all their medals.
00:10:33.820
It's so I mean, sometimes I'm like, I can't believe it's real life.
00:10:37.500
And I think that that's where women are waking up to this.
00:10:41.440
I think the public in general is seeing it for what it is.
00:10:43.920
And that's why I keep going back to, you know, we've been patient and playing nice for
00:10:49.420
And now we've come to a point where it's like, wait a second.
00:10:52.340
Like everything you just said, this actually is not fair by all the standards of fairness.
00:11:04.560
So we're going to allow these these minor exceptions from this subset of culture to come
00:11:09.780
in and completely change the game and change the rules and change fairness.
00:11:13.640
Well, I think that we're seeing the tide shift now to where people are like, it's not OK.
00:11:23.660
We had there was another cyclist who said, I can't remember now what her name was, but
00:11:32.760
And she said, as long as we have these trans women in the sports, I'm done.
00:11:38.020
You have Ingan Thompson coming out and saying, take a knee now.
00:11:45.880
I really think that we are sort of with all those events that we were talking about, reached
00:11:49.680
an inflection point in this debate where it's just not about kindness anymore.
00:11:53.500
Kindness has gotten us having minors have body parts chopped off.
00:11:59.480
There's only one solution now, and it's to fight.
00:12:01.700
And Riley Gaines gave testimony, I think it was yesterday before Congress or it was Tuesday.
00:12:09.900
And she was talking about both getting attacked at San Francisco State University and about
00:12:15.540
the underlying problem with Leah Thomas when they competed.
00:12:18.080
And she revealed, I think for the first time I hadn't heard this before, that they had
00:12:23.060
they had actually changed the policy the NCAA had to make all locker rooms unisex.
00:12:29.980
They did not tell the young women that so because she was complaining and also revealed that
00:12:39.500
Will Thomas again up until the year before changed to Leah and it was an intact male.
00:12:45.560
He has a penis walking around the women's locker room in front of these other women.
00:12:49.440
And so Riley reveals that and says she went and complained to the NCAA about it.
00:12:56.480
And they said, oh, we changed the policy to make all the locker rooms unisex.
00:13:00.040
And as she said, that meant any man could have walked into our locker room at any time,
00:13:06.500
Any man, any coach, any parent, any official who wanted to would have had full access to our
00:13:13.960
The NCAA never even told them about this change so that the women could take steps to
00:13:20.280
Now I get to worry about some freak taking advantage of it, you know?
00:13:30.520
And I want to like start by saying, I know that there are feminists who are doing good
00:13:35.020
Genevieve Gluck would be one of them that with Redux.
00:13:38.180
I learned so much from her and she is a champion.
00:13:41.100
I know that there are, but not like there were when my grandma was marching in the street.
00:13:46.740
Where are the groups of feminists who are so against the patriarchy that would say this,
00:13:53.020
we're seeing the patriarchy come back now in high heels.
00:13:58.100
Where, why the silence in large numbers from those feminists?
00:14:09.660
We want to reclaim femininity and sexuality and say, we're okay being feminine and being
00:14:19.320
We don't want to reject that and become androgynous, but at the same, we don't want to be oppressed
00:14:25.060
by the patriarchy and we don't want to be oppressed by the patriarchy wearing a costume.
00:14:32.800
I've seen you guys tweet women are not a costume.
00:14:42.880
You know, this, I wanted to ask you about this.
00:14:44.700
Uh, over the summer I had, I'm pulling up my, my, uh, screensavers or my, my screen graphs
00:14:50.080
I had on the show, a guy he's with national review.
00:14:54.160
He wrote a great book called the rise of the new, new Puritans.
00:14:57.200
And he's comparing the woke left leftists to the Puritans, you know, who are scolds about
00:15:05.220
And he went through all these great examples and it got me thinking about you two and this
00:15:09.020
debate because you, you literally will get in trouble now.
00:15:12.460
If you wear, let's say a sari to prom, we saw that happen, you know, as a, as cultural
00:15:19.220
Some girl was wearing either a sari or a kimono and she got ripped for cultural appropriation.
00:15:26.300
If you go down to the Bahamas or the Caribbean and you allow your little girl to get the
00:15:30.880
braids in her hair, even though it's local women who are, would love to put braids in
00:15:34.580
your daughter's hair and then, you know, get paid for it.
00:15:43.520
I love, love, love Noah's book and it's fun and it's a funny read.
00:15:51.420
He writes about this, um, the couple of women who opened up a food truck following a trip
00:16:00.920
They fell in love with the cuisine, asked local chefs to share their recipes and techniques
00:16:05.060
and brought them back to the Pacific Northwest.
00:16:07.980
Soon enough, the phenomenon's origin story became a subject of outrage.
00:16:12.780
The two women were accused by the city's identity obsessed press of being quote white cooks bragging
00:16:24.360
He writes in 2017, the Portland Mercury placed their names on an ignoble list of white owned
00:16:31.040
appropriative restaurants, exclaimed the Mercury quote, because of Portland's underlying racism,
00:16:37.140
the people who rightly owned these traditions and cultures that exist are already treated poorly.
00:16:41.620
The two women were accused of quote, erasing and exploiting their already marginalized identities
00:16:50.420
Uh, the online reviews went South for the business.
00:16:54.540
The truck was soon forced to fold, not because the food these two women made was bad, but because
00:17:01.140
So how I guarantee if you would talk to anybody in Portland who got that truck closed down,
00:17:06.820
they're going to say there's no such thing as woman face.
00:17:09.400
That's not cultural appropriation or appropriation of any kind.
00:17:15.300
But how do they get away with criminalizing everything as appropriation except this?
00:17:21.540
You know, one of these days, Megan, the history books are going, I guarantee it.
00:17:30.240
The history books will record this time that we are living through in American history at
00:17:38.260
The fact that there, what is, there is no standard.
00:17:41.220
What is the objective standard that a man suddenly becomes a woman and it's no longer a costume?
00:17:48.420
That is a question that has been buzzing around.
00:18:02.040
Because if there is no objective standard, then how do you hang that up in a society?
00:18:07.540
Like you have to have something that is objective.
00:18:13.500
What's the magic marker that a man becomes a woman on this day at this time?
00:18:17.480
And now he can go and compete against female cyclists, because if not, it's what you were
00:18:25.220
It's either it's gender appropriation, which obviously I don't even agree.
00:18:35.840
The thought of having to compete against a man.
00:18:39.080
I mean, the time that I put in, I mean, I was a national champion at 14 years old for
00:18:44.160
I now am an all-star coach for my daughter, who's 12 years old.
00:18:48.780
I told my girls last night, I actually had tears in my eyes when I was telling them that
00:18:56.680
I want to fight for you guys because you're putting all this time in.
00:19:04.100
We practice four days a week, games on weekends, Friday, Saturday, Sunday.
00:19:08.040
And all this is going to go to a waste because some dude wants to take your spot.
00:19:18.380
And if our daughters want to compete, they shouldn't have to compete against some dude
00:19:36.820
If women are being loud, thanks to strong voices like you guys who are brave enough
00:19:42.460
No, we're not going to play the pronoun Patty Kate game.
00:19:47.200
Once you say, yeah, that's a she, why can't she compete?
00:20:01.540
If my daughter, who's 12, she just turned 12 and she loves soccer.
00:20:05.640
If she showed up and there were a trans girl, meaning biological boy on the other team,
00:20:11.700
There is zero chance I would allow her to play in that game.
00:20:20.840
It's one thing if you're a swimmer and you're in the lane by yourself.
00:20:25.320
She came on the show, 17 years old, got seriously injured.
00:20:29.640
And when the boy who hurt her found out that she was seriously injured, did he call?
00:20:37.940
When she finally spoke out about it nine months later to the legislature to say, I don't think
00:20:44.260
Oh, it's so funny how I'm renting room in your head.
00:20:47.640
This is who we're bending over backwards to accommodate.
00:20:51.740
This is when women need to start marching in the streets.
00:20:54.120
And that's what we're going to be calling on pretty soon.
00:20:56.280
Women need to start marching in the streets and demand justice for all women, for our daughters,
00:21:09.680
I saw you guys are, I think, organizing one, one such march.
00:21:14.180
And when I first, I was like, well, you know, I've been asked to march in all these women
00:21:19.380
You know, I'm, I'm, I've always said sort of, I'm a journalist and I don't march.
00:21:35.420
It sounds discourteous to the people who are struggling with trans issues.
00:21:38.660
That's their psychological issue that we can sort of say, okay, I wish you luck on it.
00:21:43.280
Um, but we don't have to go any further than that.
00:21:46.740
Well, you know what Britt and I love about you is that you're dedicated to the fight.
00:21:53.640
There's so many people who are, it's just entertainment, Megan.
00:21:56.620
It's just the sound bites and it's just the, oh, I got to say this to get the clicks.
00:22:04.360
We want to see culture shift and we want to see our girls have a stand a chance.
00:22:10.800
I don't want to see my girls spend all this time and effort and for what they might as
00:22:19.780
It's a self-destructive, it's a self-destructive society against females and female athletes
00:22:29.940
I think that we've reached the point where we are realizing the unsustainability and the
00:22:35.700
And that we have not created an objective standard.
00:22:38.700
You know, they want to put in the UCI, the cyclist, uh, a cat, whatever they're the oversight
00:22:43.040
committee, they wanted to put in, you know, that, uh, certain estrogen amounts for this
00:22:50.360
And then they could be considered a female and they could compete against women athletes.
00:22:58.040
There, there are peer reviewed publications now stating that even prior to birth a male,
00:23:04.280
the impact of the hormones on a male changes their body long-term.
00:23:09.400
They will forever be a male that we've come to a place in 2023 now, where we think that
00:23:14.800
just by some arbitrary imaginative rule, a man at some point can become a woman.
00:23:23.400
And we're saying, Hey, you know, we're going to actually refuse to live by lies and you can
00:23:27.580
You can call me names, but I will until my grave say that men can not be women.
00:23:33.780
And until then we'll have a conversation of by what standard, what is the standard?
00:23:39.280
Let's talk about the dust up you had online with Caitlin, um, Britt, because I found the
00:23:44.260
And, you know, this is, this is where I get caught up.
00:23:49.080
I see that Caitlin, no one thinks Caitlin is a woman, right?
00:23:52.940
Caitlin has said that she said, I'm a woman in the past, but now she says, okay, I'm a trans
00:23:58.880
And, but Caitlin's joined this fight on our side on a lot of these issues.
00:24:03.580
You know, Caitlin speaking out against trans men, whatever, trans, whatever biological
00:24:12.660
And like the medicalization of this issue for minors.
00:24:15.580
And that's good for us, but I've seen people, I've seen you, I've seen Matt Walsh.
00:24:20.200
I've seen others take on Caitlin, like thanks, but no, thanks.
00:24:25.980
And you're really not that helpful to us in this fight because you, you, you're not
00:24:29.580
living your life in a way that actually does support what we're saying.
00:24:33.400
So can you explain what happened between you and Caitlin, Britt on online?
00:24:45.280
Caitlin Bruce had said something, uh, regarding his, the work that he is doing for, for women,
00:24:54.700
And I just said, I am so confused, which I still am because how is it that a man wearing
00:25:02.020
woman's face is going to suddenly save women from men wearing women's face?
00:25:10.680
And honestly, like, I would love to have a conversation.
00:25:29.860
And I do think he's very dangerous because his voice has been so amplified, amplified in
00:25:37.600
Um, and I see him as with all of that in the background, a wolf in sheep's clothing.
00:25:42.920
I don't want a man wearing woman's face to swoop in and save me.
00:25:54.300
So my question to him ended in, I just want to know what the standard is.
00:26:00.700
What is the standard that we are holding up in our society to claim to that's the linchpin
00:26:16.440
And let's not forget, Britt, Bruce said that he never identifies himself as a woman, which
00:26:25.340
Britt pointed this out in her exchange with him and about his exchange when he came out
00:26:33.480
I think, Carrie, you posted it in support of Britt.
00:26:39.580
Yes, for all intents and purposes, I am a woman.
00:26:51.780
But my heart and my soul and everything that I do in life, it is part of me.
00:27:03.860
As of now, I have all the male parts and all that kind of stuff.
00:27:35.000
But then simultaneously telling Britt that, oh, I identify I'm trans.
00:27:49.680
So, yeah, Bruce, you've claimed that you are a woman.
00:27:55.900
And on top of that, you accepted woman of the year, Bruce.
00:28:01.760
Why don't you put your money where your mouth is?
00:28:06.620
And give up your trophy to Riley Gaines, because I think she deserves it.
00:28:14.000
But let me let me ask you, because he responded.
00:28:18.640
Bruce, Caitlin responded by saying being trans is a real thing.
00:28:31.220
She and I agree on many issues or so I thought.
00:28:33.280
And now she's not in favor of me working to stop the radical left trans activist because
00:28:44.940
It's that there are people who suffer from gender dysphoria who have this genuine belief, like
00:28:54.160
And, you know, up until about two minutes ago, it was classified as a psychiatric disorder
00:28:58.320
by the DSM, you know, the manual for psychiatrists.
00:29:01.720
Um, so they recognize this as a psychological disorder.
00:29:05.840
So understanding that let's say it's still what could be categorized as that, because let's
00:29:09.960
face it, they only changed it because of pressure from the left wing woke activists.
00:29:14.080
Um, and, and let's say Bruce suffers from it and many others suffer from it.
00:29:18.740
So what, what are we supposed to do about those people?
00:29:21.560
Like, what if those people say I'm suffering, like, what are they supposed to do, Brit?
00:29:25.760
Like just suffer like not because I, I get Caitlin's point of like, I feel the need to
00:29:34.580
They get to do what they want when they're grownups, but I'm with you on these issues.
00:29:37.960
I also think I could be a good spokesperson to say what these women are saying is right.
00:29:42.320
Yes, but how do we, in our culture, treat anorexia?
00:29:49.740
What would you do if we had an anorexic celebrity who was clearly anorexic and was participating
00:29:59.760
in an anorexic lifestyle, was celebrated for that, was smeared all over all of the billboards,
00:30:10.280
And then she had the audacity to say, I'm going to save America from anorexia.
00:30:18.300
Any serious person, any serious person would say it doesn't work that way.
00:30:23.700
You have your own demons you need to deal with, but you're not going to help us.
00:30:29.140
You're actually going to harm the movement because what you're doing is regression.
00:30:35.040
And that's exactly what we're seeing with the trans movement and those who are jumping
00:30:39.660
in wearing woman's face to say that, say, we're going to save America from women face.
00:30:47.940
And whatever it is he is going with, I'm not a clinical psychologist.
00:30:51.000
Um, I do know that it was categorized as a mental disorder.
00:30:55.520
Like you said, a half a second ago, um, until tremendous pressure.
00:30:59.600
And I think that we're going to have to start to really reevaluate, uh, what, how we categorize
00:31:06.380
these people and then how we amplify these voices and embrace them as female or male.
00:31:12.360
Because the truth is, like Carrie said, there's no, there's no middle ground on this.
00:31:17.420
You can't just say that you are woman one day and you're taking women of the year and
00:31:22.140
you're standing on a podium, crushing, creaming women.
00:31:25.620
And then also have people in that subset that say, well, now I'm trans this middle ground
00:31:31.920
And I'm going to save women's sports from women.
00:31:34.460
I'm not as offensive as that group because I'm only saying I'm a trans woman.
00:31:39.440
I'm never, I'm not saying I'm a biologic woman.
00:31:42.680
You're saying there's no distinction, but that doesn't save you.
00:31:48.120
I'm saying, I'm saying there's no quarter on this issue.
00:31:52.880
And I do not want a man wearing a dress and high heels to say, he's going to save my daughter
00:31:57.940
from women or being oppressed by men in dresses.
00:32:02.420
I, the question remains, what is the standard that a man becomes a woman and it's not simply
00:32:10.240
And until then, I don't want a man in a dress saying he's going to save my daughter from
00:32:15.540
This to me, Carrie, reminds me of the Rachel Dolezal thing where this white woman put herself
00:32:21.120
in blackface and pretended to be a black woman for years.
00:32:25.420
And once she was outed as a fake black person, she was universally condemned.
00:32:35.660
And, you know, maybe she identified as a black person.
00:32:39.080
Maybe she just said, I feel, you know, a kinship.
00:32:43.560
And I feel like, I mean, everyone was like, oh, no, no, it's no hardcore.
00:32:56.500
We made this clip out of you guys because I love it.
00:33:00.840
I say to my kids, I made them look at the clip when you said it on YouTube.
00:33:16.480
I want the audience to really be able to soak that in.
00:33:29.220
It's like friggin handbags have more protection, counterfeit handbags than counterfeit women.
00:33:34.680
Like, why is it that we are not only like accepting, but we are celebrating counterfeits.
00:33:43.280
We're saying, oh, yeah, come be on Bridal Magazine, a dude with a hairy chest and a beard.
00:33:48.760
Like, how are we just, yeah, Bruce, accept women of the year award.
00:33:55.800
I mean, like at the time it was like, oh, wow, that just happened.
00:33:59.940
You know, like we weren't really awakened to all of this that's going on right now.
00:34:06.080
I would say that that's a point in Jenner's defense as well, because in 16, this still seemed like a very fringe issue where people were more accepting when someone was brave enough to say I suffer from it.
00:34:18.440
And in his defense, but also in like looking at it from a neutral perspective and how the history books will record it is he was used to bring this into your living room.
00:34:29.780
So now he wants to pivot to say I normalized it.
00:34:33.820
And now let's go ahead and like protect women from it.
00:34:40.380
I think that he has great purpose in this world.
00:34:52.820
It's a hashtag part of the problem situation, even though his heart might be in the right place.
00:34:58.440
This was like the gateway drug, you know, he was like the gateway drug into this, you know, cult addicted culture that we're living in, where it's like, you know, he kind of like wiggled his way in right through the Kardashians.
00:35:18.100
And we're saying, no, no, we're not going to accept it.
00:35:25.840
I mean, like that, you were just making that point that we celebrate it.
00:35:28.680
It's not just enough to be accepting or, I guess, more just compassionate about people who have this issue.
00:35:37.000
We are participating in the spread of something that's very dangerous and very, it's a very difficult way to live one's life.
00:35:44.400
Take a look at that series, I Am Jazz, with Jazz Jennings, who was born a boy, and they're trying to make him into a girl.
00:35:51.080
And the mother's saying, I have to wake you up in the middle of the night to expand your fake vagina.
00:35:59.320
We'll come back there and we'll pick up on the glamorization and anything else Britt and Carrie want to talk about.
00:36:17.900
It's from Brides Today, India, and they have featured someone named Alakveed Menon, a gender nonconforming author and activist in traditional Indian women's wear with heavy makeup, various saris and decadent jewelry, and also a chest full of hair, a beard, a mustache.
00:36:41.880
And I think a unibrow and we are supposed to be celebrating this as, I guess, the new version of femininity.
00:36:50.640
I don't know if that's a fake breast or what's happening there on the side view.
00:36:53.200
So that really makes you get excited about your wedding, does it not?
00:37:06.560
But to your point of celebration now, it's absolute celebration.
00:37:15.580
And this person goes by they, which, again, is not available to you.
00:37:22.060
They were born in a sexist, castist culture, again, from Texas.
00:37:28.940
That forced them to rethink marriage and sexuality.
00:37:32.360
Quote, I wish I could post an image of myself online without being inundated with hate mail.
00:37:40.200
I hope we are able to find beauty and pride in our differences.
00:37:43.780
I hope we're not just safe, but well, but well.
00:37:51.820
And once again, it's like, well, am I free to put on a sari?
00:37:55.500
Can I wear the outfit that you have on in that post?
00:38:00.420
Is that because when we try to cross anything, we are told it's inappropriate.
00:38:07.160
But this man in a damn beard with chest hair that looks like something you'd see on John Travolta in the 1970s can go out there on the cover of a bridal magazine.
00:38:22.880
We posted this picture on the battle cry and the comments were just I mean, the women were saying, how dare a bridal magazine?
00:38:33.160
Think about it, a bride is a sacred it's it's so sacred as a woman, you know, the day of your wedding.
00:38:42.260
And to see this dude who doesn't even say I'm a woman.
00:38:46.320
I mean, that was probably the most disturbing thing is he doesn't even say I'm a woman.
00:38:50.320
He says, I'm a dude that likes my chest hair and I like my beard.
00:38:58.220
I'm going to get on the cover of bridal magazine.
00:39:02.960
Can you believe that this is the world we're living in, you guys?
00:39:09.940
We just saw a guy win the Pulitzer Prize in literature for writing this long piece about gender.
00:39:17.140
And this is a person who said women are defined by the ability that they can get effed.
00:39:31.740
And this guy, this guy has a similar situation where apparently he has a now deleted Facebook
00:39:38.980
post from his account in 2016 that read, quote, little girls are also queer, trans, kinky and
00:39:51.760
Little girls are not kinky and deviant and they're not queer or trans.
00:40:00.180
Your kids aren't as straight and narrow as you think they are in response to bans on
00:40:07.860
Then he later tried to say, oh, well, somebody else authored that post that was on his blog
00:40:16.060
But this is the person we're celebrating on the cover of the magazine.
00:40:20.220
Like, it's so funny when you started reading it.
00:40:24.520
I remember going down the rabbit hole on that guy.
00:40:26.360
I didn't realize it was the same guy until now.
00:40:34.560
Why out of all of the people in the United States of America are you choosing these deviants
00:40:44.680
It's because we want this philosophy pushed so heavily that they will take entertainment
00:40:51.840
and use it as their methodology to get into our minds, to get into our brains, to tell
00:40:59.720
And it's hate speech, like what he said, hate speech.
00:41:02.220
Hate speech now is anything that goes against the lockstep narrative.
00:41:06.320
So they will continue to pick out these these people who are driving this philosophy and
00:41:13.200
And we have to get very comfortable being uncomfortable and saying it's an absolute no.
00:41:23.100
It's a cruel joke because you're selectively choosing an exclusive cult over the vast majority
00:41:31.400
And also, I mean, what it shows is that he, like so many other people, not all, but so many
00:41:38.540
other in this community has some sort of weird sexual fetish impropriety going on.
00:41:43.740
Nobody talks about little girls as kinky and deviant other than someone who is deviant.
00:41:52.240
Who who looks at a seven year child and says they're kinky?
00:41:59.300
Let her celebrate me on the cover of this magazine or let me perform in front of her to drag show.
00:42:12.600
But we do and we will not let our children anywhere near you.
00:42:16.200
And that's like the whole drag queen controversy dovetails just perfectly onto this.
00:42:20.880
I want to get to that with you, but I want to stay before we go to the drag queen stuff
00:42:24.480
on the celebration of these people, because I know you've been railing about what's happening,
00:42:31.180
So for those who are not paying attention, what what is Target doing?
00:42:40.040
I know it's like every day, Megan, we're just like getting hit, getting hit.
00:42:45.640
Adidas just went for their Bud Light award yesterday.
00:42:57.240
You need to go to Battlecry underscore US on Instagram.
00:43:08.940
I put the background music Highway to Hell on it because that's what it is.
00:43:16.980
Women do not have bulges in their bathing suits.
00:43:19.220
OK, this is when you see a bulge in the bathing suit, you should run.
00:43:23.160
That's somebody who's got a different agenda on their mind entirely.
00:43:27.780
But I said real men don't wear bathing suits and real women don't have a bulge.
00:43:37.900
Target is selling bathing suits for women that have bulges.
00:43:46.800
And why is Target having little onesies with rainbow and queer and, you know, trans?
00:44:02.480
We don't want to see front and center having explained to our two-year-olds what trans is.
00:44:08.840
That's the problem with these companies that are going woke is that they think that...
00:44:15.020
They're not even targeting their Target audience.
00:44:21.200
I don't know many women and kids, you know, mothers want their kids seeing this crap.
00:44:38.900
But I want to know how many of those clothes that they're selling end up going back at
00:44:45.860
There's no way they're making a cash cow out of all of that.
00:44:51.080
They are including, Target is, t-shirts for children that read, trans people will always
00:44:57.860
And apparently some sort of tutus for toddlers that are rainbow striped.
00:45:01.800
They've got shirts that include naked cartoon people in a t-shirt featuring the pronouns
00:45:10.060
And now the activist group Gays Against Groomers, good for this group, is speaking out saying,
00:45:17.680
Like you, they're saying, take your business elsewhere.
00:45:22.160
Because Gays Against Groomers is the right, that's the right word.
00:45:32.880
I know it's hard to say, never shop at Target, okay?
00:45:41.460
I also would encourage on a smaller scale for the moms who do rely on Target for their
00:45:48.340
every day, maybe just the month of June, give up Target.
00:45:52.700
Send a message for just the month of June that you don't like it.
00:46:00.000
And it's not impossible for one month to boycott and to let your voice be heard that
00:46:05.100
So I would encourage moms, you know, that's a great way to get in on the battlefield and
00:46:21.440
But like the Bud Light, let me just give you an update on them.
00:46:23.360
For the week ending May 6th, we got to have a lag in the reporting of sales.
00:46:27.480
In-store sales of Bud Light across the U.S. were down 23.6% compared to the year before.
00:46:41.300
Right now, they were about to unleash some campaigns celebrating the military, which
00:46:49.140
It's like, okay, yeah, use our men and women in the military to make your sales better.
00:46:56.480
Even if they do it every time of, you know, this time of year, they celebrate our military.
00:47:01.740
You've forfeited your right to put them on your beer cans and celebrate them like you're
00:47:06.500
on the side of America because we know whose side you're on.
00:47:08.740
You haven't apologized for what you did, and that's why your sales are down by one quarter.
00:47:13.680
They're going to keep going down until you find a way to make amends, and even then,
00:47:18.960
The ladies stay with us, and we've got several more things to discuss.
00:47:21.860
Don't forget, you can find The Megyn Kelly Show live on SiriusXM Triumph Channel 111 every
00:47:28.400
The full video show and clips by subscribing to our YouTube channel, youtube.com slash megynkelly.
00:47:32.600
And today's Thursday, go to megynkelly.com and sign up for my Friday email.
00:47:37.500
It's got great clips from the week, and it's got a message from me to you.
00:47:43.980
So before we leave the actual brands that are pushing this out there, there's also Anthropologie,
00:47:49.160
which posted, which is using a man parading around, dancing in one of their dresses.
00:47:57.320
We'll get it on the board so people can see it.
00:47:59.940
So yeah, so I guess this guy, their areas with an Anthropologie dress.
00:48:06.240
And now it turns into this very frou-frou pink dress.
00:48:17.140
He's a male ballet dancer in a female dress made by Anthropologie, like a sky-high heels.
00:48:25.480
Now, this has always, I think, been a left-wing brand.
00:48:27.240
It's like, it smells like patchouli oil in there.
00:48:45.640
We're adding them all to the list at this point.
00:48:48.260
I have a story for you, Megan, that's going to make you laugh.
00:48:50.520
My husband on the day before Mother's Day was shopping.
00:48:57.180
We all got to get together sometime, but he was out and took the kids to Jiu-Jitsu.
00:49:01.660
And then he went out to do pre-Mother's Day shopping.
00:49:04.340
And he FaceTimes me because he needed to know my size or something like that.
00:49:09.880
So, you know, like it pops up FaceTime and I'm looking at him.
00:49:13.260
And at first I'm like, are those the little ribbons from Jiu-Jitsu?
00:49:25.260
I'm like, no, no, I need to know where you are right now because what is that behind you?
00:49:30.100
And he turns around on FaceTime and it's a huge progress flag.
00:49:45.060
And I said, tell me there's an American flag hanging somewhere.
00:49:51.260
So I said, whatever you have on hold, you go put it back and then ask them.
00:50:01.060
So he went up and he asked them, hey, where is your he had tons of stuff on hold.
00:50:07.320
I'm curious because I see that flag, but I I'm curious where your American flag is.
00:50:14.000
Why do you only single out that subset of culture, but you don't have the American flag hanging?
00:50:25.860
I know I'm sad to say goodbye to my Lululemon, but if that's what I must.
00:50:46.460
That's so much me, but seriously, this is only going to bring more people over to our
00:50:51.840
Let's talk about Sports Illustrated, because you are former beauty queens and you understand
00:50:57.500
the beauty business, what sells, what works and what doesn't.
00:51:00.620
And, you know, I was on Paul Murray's a friend of mine.
00:51:04.880
And I go on with him once a week and we talk about culture issues and so on.
00:51:07.680
And he was raising this issue with me because Sports Illustrated.
00:51:11.260
Yes, they've got Megan Fox, who's amazing, very beautiful.
00:51:14.800
But they've also got Martha Stewart, as he described her, an elderly ex-con, very kind
00:51:31.940
There is a biological man who's there who's some sort of a singer who was with Sam Smith
00:51:37.820
and his weird devil worship show, Kim Petras, who is Tim Petras, but now looks like this.
00:51:44.820
And I said to Paul Murray, you know, you tell me, Paul.
00:51:48.420
But my understanding of the cover of the Sports Illustrated magazine is it has one main purpose,
00:51:53.800
and that's for 15 year old boys to spend some alone time with it in the bathroom.
00:51:57.300
Like, I don't I'm thinking this isn't the way to get that done.
00:52:01.740
I think it's once again, not knowing the function of your your product or who your audience is.
00:52:06.780
And it is a situation with the trans model or whoever this person is of a man coming in
00:52:13.440
and taking over a spot that previously would have been given to a woman once again.
00:52:24.300
And I couldn't help when I saw this, but think about the thousands of women who would have
00:52:34.080
I mean, to be on the cover of Sports Illustrated is like winning Miss America or Miss USA or,
00:52:39.620
you know, winning another prestigious title as a woman.
00:52:42.460
And I couldn't help but think of those women who saw that and thought, wow, first of all,
00:52:52.420
And of all, like I looked at it and I was just like, oh, but like you said, Megan, like these
00:52:57.980
these young men who are looking at this, like imagine how they feel like maybe they think,
00:53:07.020
Like, could you imagine as like a young man seeing that and being like, and then you find out.
00:53:11.440
Like, yeah, and then you find out and you find out.
00:53:13.800
It's like the crying game, you know, where you're like, oh, shit.
00:53:23.300
That's the word that I kept trying to find in my head.
00:53:26.640
And I think that's the intention is it's to it's to confuse young men.
00:53:32.620
I saw him, Kim, Tim, and I was like, with all the Photoshop, he looked beautiful.
00:53:38.740
I thought he looked like he looked like a beautiful woman on that cover.
00:53:43.940
And that is so, so dangerous because men are going to see that and a lot who aren't going
00:53:50.180
to know that it's a dude are going to, like you said, get bait and switch with it.
00:53:54.560
And now they're attracted or did something in the bathroom to a man.
00:53:59.080
Well, now what's that doing to your sexuality and your reasoning through all this as a young
00:54:04.980
It's to confuse and destroy male sexuality and female sexuality.
00:54:10.480
I think that's what what the big picture is here.
00:54:12.700
And also, I thought, you know, how how embarrassing for those other three women that a dude just
00:54:18.020
got shuffled on in the lineup like you're just right on next to a dude like.
00:54:22.480
Yeah, I had to make it the year that there's men in it.
00:54:24.720
I mean, like, is that how the standards, how low they've fallen?
00:54:27.020
I I'm in the one where there's a dude in a bathing suit right next to me.
00:54:34.280
But you you said something online that I saw and it was such a good point.
00:54:37.740
It was something to the effect of this is intentional.
00:54:43.360
It's they're trying to erase the two gender narrative and getting you confused is part of the
00:54:51.980
plan. Yes, yes, because if you can do that, you can destroy the family unit.
00:54:57.740
It's what Hugh Hefner did back in when he was doing his thing in the 60s.
00:55:02.300
Well, he he talked about how what he offered through the Playboy philosophy was a way for men to not feel bad
00:55:13.320
Prior to Playboy America, you had young men seeking the virtue of husbandry and they took
00:55:20.960
wives and they had children and they were fathers and they were husbands.
00:55:25.420
And that was you've hit the gold standard in America.
00:55:29.120
Playboy comes in and says, I'm going to offer you something different.
00:55:31.920
I'm going to offer you something where you can be a bachelor forever.
00:55:34.820
And it's that same philosophy that was driven in men as an attempt to sabotage the family
00:55:41.960
unit, the family structure and truly the foundation of America.
00:55:51.440
It confuses young men on who they are, their sexuality, what they're supposed to be.
00:55:56.800
And it ultimately destroys and appends the family unit.
00:55:59.680
And that destroys the fabric of America, which is completely Marxist in in the ultimate game here.
00:56:07.220
The drag queen shows are one step removed from all this.
00:56:10.760
I mean, they are barely, barely one step removed.
00:56:13.320
It used to be something where like I remember my mom turned like 40 and her friends at her
00:56:23.420
It was like a guy in a dress who then, you know, did like a dance.
00:56:30.360
It was like now drag has become almost synonymous with inappropriate sexual content, bondage,
00:56:38.220
the leather boots, the bulge, filthy words, dirty songs about the P word while they're
00:56:45.220
And they're desperate to do this in front of our kids, desperate to have access to our
00:56:52.120
When you first came on the first time, I told you, I saw you two standing up at one of
00:56:54.860
these PTA meetings or parent meetings, and you went off on them because they were trying
00:56:58.840
to do this at your school and saying it would be family friendly, family friendly.
00:57:02.680
And you guys were like, what the hell does that mean?
00:57:08.420
That is not a fight we're winning right now, though.
00:57:10.460
Though people are trying to track crack down on it in states.
00:57:13.820
I've been talking about the fact that Charlize Theron appeared at this via video via at this
00:57:19.000
like drag queen benefits, like a telethon for drag queens.
00:57:24.980
They're trying to pretend that all these states are trying to ban drag.
00:57:30.020
They're trying to say no more drag shows in front of children.
00:57:37.200
You want to do it in a public library where little children are there with their moms
00:57:40.560
picking out, you know, books on Thomas the Train.
00:57:46.140
I'm sorry you need to be legislated like this, but you clearly do.
00:57:54.420
RuPaul has this thing called DragCon and they are there.
00:57:58.140
They're celebrating drag and they're celebrating children in drag and also attending their drag
00:58:09.300
Lolita Page said the children's presence was a nice reassurance.
00:58:14.480
It's a nice reassurance that, you know, we're getting the access we need and the
00:58:18.580
acceptance of our weird sexual performances in front of children.
00:58:22.900
And here's just a little bit of what what we saw there.
00:58:26.620
It's it's RuPaul and other it's other drag queens talking at the RuPaul DragCon, speaking
00:58:34.300
I've met so many kids today whose eyes light up when they see drag and it just goes to show
00:58:40.220
that there's, you know, they're trying to criminalize drag.
00:58:42.860
They're trying to make drag queens out to be monsters.
00:58:45.940
They're trying to make anyone who does drag out to be monsters.
00:58:49.480
You know, we just are celebrating our life and celebrating living out loud.
00:58:59.620
I feel like right now we're living in very unsure times based on everything within the
00:59:03.860
laws, et cetera, even with the Bud Light campaign.
00:59:06.240
But I feel like right now this is kind of a reassurance that we are here.
00:59:11.660
Do your thing behind closed doors in front of adults, period.
00:59:21.780
But see, I think, Megan, this is where like back in 2008, 2009 ish, where we went wrong
00:59:28.180
as as a society where we said, well, as long as it doesn't affect me, do what you want.
00:59:35.280
And now look now look at how it's affecting us.
00:59:38.000
Like this is where we have to stop playing defense and play offense and say, you know
00:59:43.880
Any I am so proud of Tennessee and these other states that are that are creating legislation
00:59:48.360
to ban this stuff because that's what it takes.
00:59:52.760
You look at these videos that you just played and it breaks my heart.
00:59:56.860
It really breaks my heart because I'm thinking how sick and twisted do you have to be to want
01:00:06.940
Yeah, but that's that's where they want to go, Megan.
01:00:18.420
And, you know, and if we don't stand up, all the moms and dads listening, if we don't
01:00:23.840
stand up, you are going to see a really, really ugly society for our kids.
01:00:32.160
Um, some of the products that were being advertised at this event where parents were
01:00:37.880
willingly bringing their young children include, forgive me because this is graphic.
01:00:42.040
Um, the spiked collar company, bitch fist NYC, the lubricant company, boy butter and the
01:00:51.100
flavored anal spray company, holy H O L E Y water.
01:00:56.860
What sane parent would bring their child around those products there?
01:01:04.580
This is look, the Teletubbies are there to lure the children in celebrating what celebrating
01:01:16.840
Yeah, but this is where we were headed in the 1940s when Alfred Kinsey started publishing
01:01:25.340
Do you know the whole reason why they were doing these experiments on, and this is not
01:01:31.120
If you can go look up table 34 and table 32 of Alfred Kinsey, uh, the reason they did
01:01:35.780
these experiments on kids to see at six months old, how many times can we get a kid to orgasm?
01:01:41.900
The kid was freaked out of his mind and they called it an orgasm and it was labeled as science
01:01:47.680
And it changed the landscape of America entirely in the late forties.
01:01:51.360
But you know what, why he was doing those grotesque.
01:01:55.920
Pettyophilic experiments on kids was to prove to America that kids are sexual from birth.
01:02:02.780
That's where we are all these years later from Kinsey America is say, this is the fruit
01:02:08.780
of that bad, bad seed that we let in our culture and we let it grow and we watered it and we applauded
01:02:14.760
it and we said, if you're speaking against it, you're a hater and you're a bigot.
01:02:18.980
We have bit into that fruit and we have said, yep, our kids are sexual.
01:02:24.320
So we have to highly sexualize them and we have to bring them to these events where you
01:02:38.620
So to your point, Carrie, that, that, that the way forward here is to fight beyond offense.
01:02:43.080
You do have a real divide right now between the parties.
01:02:47.160
And I always go back to what Rick Grinnell said.
01:02:52.100
And he said, um, you know, we're talking about the mean tweets or whatever.
01:02:57.080
This is, he said, you can't vote for these people.
01:03:08.800
There is a very clear divide between the parties right now on this issue.
01:03:12.020
I give you Kareem Jean-Pierre, who's been pushing every far left piece of legislation
01:03:18.460
on behalf of her boss, um, to make it as easy as possible for kids to quote transition,
01:03:23.680
have their penises chopped off, have their breasts chopped off.
01:03:30.400
All of this, that they're, they're in favor of all these treatments.
01:03:36.440
And I've met a lot of parents of trans kids in the past couple of months who have told
01:03:41.540
me this, these devastating stories, whether they're in Texas or Oklahoma or wherever they
01:03:46.840
are saying how they now have to seriously consider leaving their state to protect their child.
01:03:52.880
And that's something that we have to call out and continue to be very clear about that.
01:04:06.300
No, no, I encourage everybody to go onto the battle cry and look at our recent video that
01:04:11.920
I think it's 47,300 now, uh, D transitioners who have shared their stories.
01:04:29.020
They're, they're going to be on medication for life.
01:04:39.160
You even have Dylan Mulvaney the other day saying that he still struggles with anxiety
01:04:44.340
Wait, I thought by transitioning makes you happy.
01:04:55.200
And for the boys, you put them on puberty blockers when they're young.
01:05:00.420
And by the way, if you remove puberty blockers, that's how you get 90% of the kids growing
01:05:05.260
You, if you put them on puberty blockers, it slows down all the things that will revert
01:05:11.220
Maybe they realize they're gay and so on, but you arrest the brain when you put them on
01:05:15.240
In any event, you put them on puberty blockers, then right to cross sex hormones.
01:05:19.560
The little boys stay with what's considered a micro penis, a little boy's penis.
01:05:25.680
There isn't enough tissue to create the fake vagina.
01:05:28.020
And now they're taking material from these little boys' colons to create a fake vagina.
01:05:34.060
At least one kid's already died over in a Dutch boy because it's a very dangerous operation.
01:05:43.420
She says they're all, if they're all our children, then that means the three of us are
01:05:50.780
I'm happy you're putting me in charge of your kid.
01:05:57.080
And even then, we could have some problems, but certainly not as minors.
01:06:01.120
Yeah, and you know, it's only the state's kids if the state gets what it wants.
01:06:06.240
But then what happens when these kids, like Carrie said, you've got to go onto the battle
01:06:14.120
One of them, males who tried to become females.
01:06:19.820
And all the complications that they went through, just the scars on their arms, because they
01:06:25.300
farm arm skin to then invert the skin to make it like a pretend penis that then is ripe
01:06:33.280
And you're a slave to the pharmaceutical industry for life after that.
01:06:36.300
So for the state, for Jean-Pierre, whatever, she wants your kids up till that point, only
01:06:46.900
Who's holding those kids when they're sobbing because they made a mistake?
01:06:50.440
Who is responsible for all their medical care for the rest of their life?
01:06:54.780
Who's responsible, Jean-Pierre, for all of that?
01:06:57.840
Because I guarantee you, the state's not stepping up then.
01:07:04.400
They want nothing to do with the detransitioners.
01:07:06.520
They pretend that they don't exist, which brings me to the New York Times.
01:07:10.340
So the New York Times was doing some sort of fair and balanced reporting on the trans issue
01:07:14.060
with kids when it comes to kids and the medicalization of this issue.
01:07:17.340
And then it got all sorts of pushback from the left.
01:07:19.340
And then magically appears a new kind of article in the New York Times on May 16th.
01:07:25.500
Howie, few stories of regret fuel the push to restrict gender transition care.
01:07:39.080
Letting a 15-year-old like Chloe Cole get her breast chopped off.
01:07:44.500
It's not mutilization with a double mastectomy for a teenager.
01:07:51.820
And they're trying to minimize her story and that of others.
01:08:02.580
Now, the New York Times has the nerve to dismiss her and others like her as basically Republican shills being used to ban transition care for minors in various states.
01:08:15.180
Ms. Cole and fewer than 10 activists like her, people who transition and then change course, have become the faces of the cause.
01:08:22.800
But most people who transition do not change course, the Times wants us to know.
01:08:28.680
Then they cite the American Academy of Pediatrics and the American Medical Association.
01:08:32.580
Who say, affirm, affirm, affirm, affirm, and transition.
01:08:35.620
Those are disgusting organizations who have been completely co-opted by the woke left and do not care about children when it comes to this stuff.
01:08:43.060
But here's the thing I wanted to ask you about.
01:08:50.600
They change, quote, change gender, then change back.
01:08:58.940
And they point out that at one point this trans person was promoting a, quote, fringe theory that asserts that transgender women, meaning biological men, are actually men sexually aroused by imagining themselves as women.
01:09:16.480
So what the New York Times is calling a fringe theory is autogynephilia.
01:09:25.680
It actually accounts for probably most of these cases of transition.
01:09:31.960
And I'll give you, we're going to have Helen Joyce on the show.
01:09:36.880
But in it, she spent some time quoting people like Ray Blanchard, a sexologist, very well known, who says that the overwhelming majority of adult biological men who present with gender dysphoria are of the autogynephilic type.
01:09:54.420
It means you get turned on when you wear women's clothes.
01:09:59.880
It's you're not you don't have gender dysphoria.
01:10:03.240
In 1987, he did a study and found the percentage of non-homosexual transsexuals with admitted autogynephilia is very high.
01:10:13.920
She goes on in her book to talk about Michael Bailey, a sexologist at Northwestern University in Chicago.
01:10:20.940
He cited studies by Anne Lawrence, American psychologist, sexologist and former anesthesiologist who published extensively on transsexuality.
01:10:33.140
Eighty six percent of respondents who said they were trans had at least occasional autogynephilic arousal and forty nine percent had at least hundreds of episodes of autogynephilic arousal.
01:10:45.680
It is not fringe and it matters because that's how you get Riley Gaines and the women of UPenn looking at Leah Thomas with his penis out and getting off.
01:10:57.600
That's if you look at Leah Thomas's tweets, we've talked about this per The Daily Wire.
01:11:02.700
He gets off, I'm sure, on people seeing him dress like a woman.
01:11:05.040
He got access to this women's locker room and these women were told to go get therapy if they didn't like it.
01:11:14.280
And I want all your listeners to remember the month of June is coming.
01:11:27.040
So for the month of June, I want everybody listening.
01:11:30.380
If you go in a store and you see that flag, remember what Megan just said.
01:11:35.800
Remember that that company is pledging their allegiance to that.
01:11:39.660
And do you want to support businesses that support that?
01:11:44.880
So here at The Battle Cry, we're challenging you for the month of June.
01:11:50.800
The month of June, stop supporting companies that push this cult on our kids.
01:11:58.220
Because let's face it, the LGB part of the LGBTQ flag, they've already won.
01:12:17.300
But there's not a country that is discriminating against gays and lesbians writ large at all.
01:12:23.240
And if they hang that flag, they are supporting the stuff we are discussing today.
01:12:27.820
Stuff I'm happy to say, Brit, you've got people like Ron DeSantis taking active and important
01:12:35.760
I am so happy with what he just did down in Florida.
01:12:39.400
They have now banned mutilating surgical procedures on minors.
01:12:45.820
He just signed five pieces of legislation into law.
01:12:48.180
He's, by the way, expected to announce his candidacy next week.
01:12:51.460
So it's on to protect children in the state from harmful leftist initiatives, quoting here
01:12:55.640
from the Daily Wire, including mutilating surgical procedures, radical gender ideology
01:12:59.780
in schools and sexually explicit drag queen shows.
01:13:08.680
It outlaws the permanent mutilation via surgical procedures of minors and experimental puberty
01:13:13.840
blockers for minors, grants Florida courts temporary emergency jurisdiction to intervene
01:13:19.220
and halt procedures for out of state children, creates a pathway to recover damages for injury
01:13:25.200
or death resulting from mutilating surgeries or experimental puberty blockers given to a minor,
01:13:30.040
protects students from having to declare their pronouns in school.
01:13:34.740
Expands parental rights in education by prohibiting classroom instruction on sexual orientation.
01:13:38.660
and gender identity and pre-K through eighth grade protects children from sexually explicit
01:13:43.700
performances in all venues and threatens to find, suspend or revoke the operating or our
01:13:50.500
alcohol licenses of those establishments who admit a child into an adult performance.
01:13:56.660
And then finally, expands youth access to sports, doesn't allow trans kids to play sports and forces all public institutions to have separate bathrooms for men and women based on biological sex.
01:14:24.020
And I always correct when these, you know, the, the New York times posted that Texas legislature bans transgender medical care for children.
01:14:32.980
And so I corrected it and said, another state bans the barbaric cult mutilation of children.
01:14:37.860
We need to start correcting language because you win and you lose with words.
01:14:43.380
And I think also to, um, Florida's applause, if they states like California, where we live, crazy California, belly of the beast over here are going to double down so hard to make a state, a sanctuary for the cults and really a high temple for the cult to just butcher up children who come over.
01:15:02.900
Then those other states, they need to be going down even harder.
01:15:10.500
And, but, you know, back to the partisan divide, you've got the secretary of state, all right.
01:15:17.060
Secretary of state, Anthony Blinken, tweeting out the following.
01:15:21.380
On international day against homophobia, biphobia, interphobia, huh?
01:15:33.880
And transphobia, we call for an end to harmful conversion therapy practices, including those that attempt to change a person's sexual orientation, gender identity, or expression or sex characteristics.
01:15:48.340
The only conversion therapy that is happening right now is by Blinken and his side, where they take a gay boy and they try to make him believe he's a girl.
01:16:01.840
It's exactly, exactly what we need to start saying.
01:16:08.740
Taking a kid, butchering them to pieces, making them a slave to the pharmaceutical industry for life, however long their short life is lived, is conversion therapy.
01:16:22.560
And that looks a whole lot different than the way that they're spinning it.
01:16:27.460
And it's, I mean, this administration right now is trying to ban as conversion therapy, talk therapy for kids who think they might be the opposite gender.
01:16:41.140
And that's literally the solution for these children that as England has recognized, as Finland has recognized, as Sweden has recognized, all of them have now moved away from this medicalization of minors and pushed talk therapy instead.
01:16:54.320
Figure out like Chloe Cole, whether this is just a person who's on the spectrum and having some social challenges or anorexic because eating disorders are intimately tied to this.
01:17:02.600
We've had person after person come on experts and individuals alike and say that, not to mention, you know, parents going through a divorce, all the stuff that life throws at you, prepubescent or pubescent problems.
01:17:12.420
That's the answer, not the solution or not the problem.
01:17:15.000
And our country is bass backwards when it comes to that under Joe Biden, who I don't even know.
01:17:23.980
There's probably Anthony Blinken or somebody else carrying John Pierre telling him he's got a sign on the dotted line to stop kids from getting the help they need.
01:17:35.080
You know, Carrie and I say frequently, we are so thankful that you aren't just out here for the clicks and likes and entertainment.
01:17:43.160
We value your voice and your logic and your reasoning and your questioning and digging deep.
01:17:53.220
And we are so thankful to link arms with you and to speak truth into the madness and to ask questions that actually matter.
01:18:00.420
And to give no quarter on issues that you shouldn't.
01:18:03.860
And we're just so thankful to be doing this with you.
01:18:11.480
Guys, I'm coming out to your march and I'm going to wear my hat.
01:18:16.880
I'm going to wear the Kelly J. Keene hat and I'm going to bring Kelly J. Keene merch for you because we I think we all feel the same.
01:18:54.360
Check out the battle cry underscore US on Instagram.
01:19:00.920
And as you can see, their takes are always spicy, informed and important.
01:19:08.540
It's time for another edition of you can't say that or think that or do that.
01:19:14.880
This time I have a story for you about America's favorite or least favorite influencer, Dylan Mulvaney.
01:19:21.680
And also about what comedians can and cannot joke about in 2023.
01:19:26.000
I was joined by comedian Chrissy Mayer way back on this show in episode 127.
01:19:33.200
But as someone who is unabashedly a Trump supporter, she has dealt with social media censorship from
01:19:39.500
But when she's on the road doing comedy shows, she likely thought she was in a safe space to
01:19:43.560
make, well, you know, they're called jokes, especially in a comedy club in Texas.
01:19:49.400
But as Chrissy learned recently, some who attend a comedy show have strict boundaries about
01:19:58.000
Chrissy began to make a joke about Dylan Mulvaney and the year of girlhood.
01:20:05.860
Why has it been a year of girlhood and still no tits?
01:20:14.500
OK, if I'm transitioning to a dude day one, I'm getting a cock and I just I'm getting the
01:20:22.800
So some laughter in the crowd and then someone listening to her out there shouted, he's a
01:20:32.000
And then a different female audience member shouted, no, she's a woman.
01:20:48.760
Yeah, some of us can believe in reality and some of us can't.
01:21:06.540
That's been transphobe shouted the very easily offended audience member who was on her way
01:21:13.660
You're paying for insults and irreverent comedy.
01:21:19.000
If you want to see safe TV, watch NBC, because you see, even if you are a comedian, if you
01:21:24.260
think you're going to get away with joking about a very serious topic like Dylan Mulvaney,
01:21:39.400
The MK mailbag where we've gotten a ton of mail this week.
01:21:43.240
You can email me, Megan at Megan Kelly dot com.
01:21:47.800
You can go to just go to Megan Kelly dot com and we can sign up for my email or email
01:21:54.680
You heard the updates on this are absolutely spectacular.
01:21:58.280
The New York PD has been shitting all over their story for the past 24 hours.
01:22:05.580
And actually, I've got to give credit to the rap who went to the police precinct that
01:22:10.420
covers the area where they claim their car chase kicked off.
01:22:16.000
And it was the 18th precinct and the on duty officer there who declined to be named told
01:22:22.900
Don't believe everything you read in the newspapers.
01:22:26.960
And by the way, the cab driver who took them on the last part of their high speed chase
01:22:32.620
that lasted two hours in Manhattan, he's also spoken out and said the following.
01:22:37.800
And what do you think about the description of this, you know, the near catastrophic event?
01:22:42.980
I think that's all, you know, exaggerated and stuff like that.
01:22:48.200
As far as you were concerned, when they were in your taxi, you know, did you feel like you
01:22:53.340
Did it feel like the paparazzi were being aggressive?
01:23:04.180
It's like everybody else trying to get pictures, make a quick buck.
01:23:16.060
You've got the the taxi driver saying the paparazzi were not aggressive.
01:23:25.780
Don't believe everything you read in the papers.
01:23:28.640
Remember when you were a kid and little kids used to suffer like one little small injury
01:23:33.320
and they try to blow it up and do a big, big injury because they wanted sympathy or attention
01:23:41.840
They had a couple of paps who followed them and tried to get a picture.
01:23:44.980
And by the way, as for their New York catastrophic and they were disobeying the traffic laws.
01:23:48.980
Actually, the reports out today via the New York Post are that the freelance photographers who were hired to cover the event are alleging that one of the four SUVs from Prince Harry's security escort was driving in a manner that could be perceived as reckless.
01:24:01.720
The vehicle was seen in a manner was seen blocking off streets.
01:24:05.420
And in one video, it is shown being pulled over by the police.
01:24:10.820
And by the way, some of the photos show Meghan Markle smiling ear to ear in the midst of her New York death experience.
01:24:21.940
So the MK mailbag, Karen writes in, imagine a car chase in New York City.
01:24:25.740
Who other than a non-New Yorker would believe this tale of woe?
01:24:28.700
I can barely go two lights before it turns red again.
01:24:33.240
Amy writes, Markle continues to try to align her story with Princess Diana, a chase that went on for two hours.
01:24:40.600
By the way, ABC News reported yesterday it was only 20 minutes.
01:24:48.220
These two didn't want the paparazzi to see where they were staying.
01:24:54.460
And they're mad that they didn't just beg off and not get their picture.
01:25:00.360
Would you just act like grown up public figures?
01:25:04.100
Again, what do you think it's like for Taylor Swift, who's way more famous than you are and more popular when she comes in?
01:25:15.060
Oh, the New York Post has gone to the trouble of showing you the very short distances they traveled over their two-hour car chase, which is near catastrophic.
01:25:27.400
Let me get to some of the callers because it's just too fun a day and there's a lot going on.
01:25:31.920
Megan and Harry, I'm taking your thoughts on that, too, as well as crazy-ass gender ideology.
01:25:42.740
First of all, I just want to say I love your show.
01:25:49.340
And with this whole gender ideology thing, as scary as it is, I think it's time for people like me to, you know, I view the whole trans ideology, especially what it's become, really antithetical to me being gay.
01:26:10.560
Like, I'm not attracted to a person because they claim they're male.
01:26:16.800
And I think it's just, like, time for, you know, the L and the G and the B to part ways with the T's and the Q's and all the other nonsense letters that we just want to keep adding for who knows why.
01:26:35.580
And I empathize with the position that organizations like GLAAD are putting you in, because they used to stand for gay and lesbian rights.
01:26:45.580
And somewhere along the way, they started endorsing all these other things that really, this ideology, the T, they really are doing conversion therapy on gay boys.
01:26:56.640
And it's, I mean, it's a point where I know there's many out there like me, you know, we're timid by nature, but we need to really buckle down, follow the lead of our founding fathers and pledge our lives, fortunes and sacred honor and start growing the spine and standing up to this.
01:27:22.760
I mean, I think within the LGBTQ, whatever community, it's, it is going to have to be gay and lesbian people who force the breakup and hopefully force reason.
01:27:32.200
I mean, anybody who's not in that community, of course, gets dismissed as a bigot, but you guys have real power to say, no, we don't stand for this.
01:27:48.160
But I think you, you have standing as we say in the law to complain.
01:27:59.680
How about Veronica in New Jersey, not far from where I am and where I spend my summers in New Jersey.
01:28:11.380
I wrote to you a while back, just a little note that, and I don't hear people talking about this, but there is an actual disorder called body integrity identity disorder.
01:28:28.660
And it is when somebody goes to their doctor and says, you have got to cut off my right arm.
01:28:39.080
They actually want their right arm or their right leg or whatever cut off.
01:28:42.880
And any doctor that would do it would be called a quack.
01:28:47.800
So I don't understand why we're not calling this mutilation of children quackery.
01:29:01.840
I had this debate with Keith Abloh on Fox News in like 2010, somewhere around there.
01:29:08.040
And he told me about this disorder that you reference here.
01:29:13.600
And he said, if somebody comes into my office and says, you know, I got to get rid of my left arm.
01:29:20.940
He said, I'd say, no, brother, I can't do that.
01:29:28.500
And now we're not only doing it for grown adults.
01:29:31.280
We're doing it on children, pretending that they can consent, that they have any idea what they're getting themselves into.
01:29:41.160
Just like these puberty blockers, which we used to give, we still give for precocious puberty.
01:29:46.920
But you only give them for a short period of time.
01:29:50.180
And it's to the girls to try to get them at least to five feet tall if you can.
01:29:54.980
Because we know that if you give them too long, these girls are infertile.
01:30:06.860
And thank you for your time as a school nurse, as the mother of three kids.
01:30:09.860
I appreciate what you do and how important it is.
01:30:16.160
And, you know, Brian's got a point about what they're doing to young gay boys.
01:30:19.760
And you've got a point about what we're doing to little kids, male, female, straight and gay.
01:30:27.840
I don't show these pictures on the show because they're too graphic.
01:30:29.840
But if you take a look at one of these fake penises that they construct, it's an absolute monstrosity.
01:30:34.860
It's an absolutely disgusting pile of flesh that they try to cobble together.
01:30:41.420
And the thought that a loving parent would do this to their child, it's just it's hard to it's hard to even stomach.
01:30:54.600
You know, I'm so fed up with this stuff of because like even at my job, you have to sign an inclusion, you know, amendment every year saying that, you know, this hospital, we're all inclusive.
01:31:14.140
And they troll social media, looking for people who are against it.
01:31:20.440
And then, you know, I mean, technically you can lose your job if you say something out of sorts, you know, and they don't define what is appropriate.
01:31:30.440
It's if it makes that person feel bad, then it's inappropriate.
01:31:42.360
And I, I have a child who is dyslexic, who is technically considered disabled.
01:31:51.660
She asked me when she was like seven years old, if she could play in the special Olympics.
01:31:57.760
And I was like, no, like, why aren't we saying no, it's not appropriate.
01:32:07.700
It's gender doping when it comes to the sports, right?
01:32:10.340
These guys have an, an inherent advantage, the testosterone.
01:32:15.360
The bone size, the heart size, the lung capacity, the wingspan, the muscle, musculature, all of it.
01:32:22.060
We could go down the list like that deputy sheriff who transitioned.
01:32:24.580
And a few years later, a few years later, as a grown man, he's dominating in women's 40 to 49.
01:32:33.740
Let's go to, let's see, David in North Carolina.
01:32:37.340
Hey, um, I've got a 27 year old daughter who ran track in high school and I talk to her now and she's an engineer, number one in her class at a, you know, high end university in North Carolina.
01:33:03.240
And when I talk to her about it, she goes, we have to give them a chance.
01:33:17.100
She has to read more and be exposed to the unfairness more.
01:33:20.360
You know, young people tend to be more left and I think they sort of find themselves more in the middle as they get older.
01:33:31.500
Like the ones who are actually having to compete are in a much different, much more difficult position.
01:33:38.380
And, you know, you see person after person come out, starred athletes to say, this is unfair.
01:33:44.080
You know, Martina and others, she's got to listen because it's, it's my daughter, right?
01:33:49.180
It's Abby's daughters here who are going to have to deal with this with all due respect, not your daughter.
01:33:54.600
And so hopefully she can listen to some other sourcing and inform the opinion that way.
01:34:03.440
And thank you all for sharing today's program and all the programs with us.
01:34:06.800
We really appreciate you choosing us for your news and your news commentary.
01:34:10.200
Um, I can tell you're out there and I feel your support and I hope you feel it for me too.
01:34:14.480
I want to tell you that tomorrow we have Dan Bongino here for his first appearance on the show.
01:34:20.300
Looking forward to talking with him and seeing you guys all then.
