Megyn Kelly really isn’t great at making friends lately, is she?
She had the controversial Maria Kang on her show…
Don’t remember Maria Kang? She’s the chick who send a million feminists into a tail-spin with this:

Aaaanyway…. Megyn had her on the show, and said that her “stay-thin” strategy was having her stepfather call her a “fat-ass.”
Megyn said the following on her show:
“You should parlay the shaming thing into a professional business. Some of us want to be shamed! When I was in law school, I was gaining weight, I said to my stepfather, ‘If you see me going into that kitchen one more time, you say, ‘Where you going, fat ass?’ And it works!”
So um… those are some interesting family dynamics, I suppose.
Here’s the whole segment:
I guess the issue is with the “Some of us want to be shamed!” comment.
McCain is ticked…
I was publicly fat shammed early on in my career and it sent me to therapy. Trust me, there are real life ramifications for fat shaming of any kind, it is NEVER acceptable. We should be fostering a healthy culture that celebrates all women of all sizes. https://t.co/dFn3hGwot6

Here’s the thing… Shouldn’t women be allowed to decide for themselves how they want to be related to?
It Megyn Kelly wants to be called a fat ass, isn’t that her own problem?
It sent you to therapy, and it kept HER thin…. why must everyone comply with someone else’s feelings?
Anyway… Meghan is far from being the only one who’s mad…
Kiss my ever-widening, fat ass @megynkelly https://t.co/Z8Ap4K1ta7

How empowering is it to tell a woman she doesn’t want what she just said she wanted, AM I RIGHT?!
Umm, @megynkelly has just increased her creepy factor by 100x. She makes me nauscious as it is but yeah, creepier.

I mean, the stepdad thing was a little odd..
Proof that @megynkelly is an unlikeable, nasty, screw loose kinda bish. I haven’t watched the @TODAYshow even once since she was hired. Here everyone is w the momentum to put an end to shaming culture & this twat is out there saying this crap. She disgusts me, to say the least. https://t.co/oVSqZg8J5p

Oh well, Megyn. You win some you lose some.
JK. I’m defending her on this because I think it’s a ridiculous pile on… but Megyn has been on the you lose ALL OF THEM train lately.
PS I never want to write a post about “Meghan” and “Megyn” again. I almost gave up and called them both “Megan” because I had to keep making sure I was getting them straight.
