Isn’t this the same Megyn Kelly who Trump blasted at saying “Nasty woman with blood coming out of her whatever” during 2016 primary debates when she asked her tough question.
Do us all a favor and sit this one out, Mesogyn Kelly.
Sounds like a free tampon could benefit her!
such a weird thing to be mad about

I’m a 56 DWcisM who lives alone on a sailboat with a cat, and even I have a small box of regular Tampax aboard for guests, just-in-case. So they are in the boy’s bathroom, big woop. I hope condoms are in the both/all bathrooms too, but that would be asking too much.
I also have a larger box of generics I use to clean up spills in the boat.
Are you okay with tampons in boys’ washrooms?!
Yyyes. And it’s weird that republicans are not. They’re hygiene products, not a political statement.
The moisty naps in KFC takeout is an abomination!
They’re also good for bullet wound first aid which makes this a darkly practical thing for 2a fanatics
They’re really not, don’t stick anything in a penetrating wound, that’s a myth.
My last first aid course didn’t mention tampons specifically, but if you need to stop heavy bleeding, anything is on the table.
We were told that the general practice with a major wound was essentially to use a rolled up bandage to wipe the worst of the blood away so you can see where it’s coming from, then put said bandage over the probable artery and apply lots of pressure.
Your job as first aid is to keep someone alive until paramedics arrive. Tissue damage from a tampon gluing itself in can be fixed. Total blood loss less so.
They did say they’re an option for a major nosebleed though.
To show the quote:
We explain how improvised tourniquets, wound dressings, splinting and traction devices can be fabricated using items from the high street: nappies, tampons, cling film, duct tape and tablecloths.
There are situations where you need to pack a gsw with gauze but a tampon is a terrible thing to use for that and you’d be better off using a tshirt or something.
My understanding is that this often causes more harm than it prevents. It’s a popular concept, and has been taught by many people, but it’s not a good idea. It makes sense that it would work, but when actually tested it isn’t. Check for yourself though.
FWIW I’ve seen little single use packs of blood clotting powder in the camping section at both Target and Walmart recently (in the last few months) probably worth grabbing a few first aid kits.
They probably think soap is a political statement.
You’re washing your hands? Eeew gaaaay
We know how they feel about vaccines
I don’t think Megyn even buys into her positions very much. She seems more like just another soulless ghoul like Tucker, happy to stoke the culture war for fame and wealth.
Megyn may not. But the people she’s making money off do.
I suspect a lot of them were probably drinking hand sanitizer during covid
“It says 90% alchohol! If not for drinking then what?!?”
Bleach. Their dear leader told them to drink bleach.
He also told them to stick a light bulb up their asses. I’m sure a lot of them did all 3 of these things
Mmm yeah, boof me some horse dewormer!
Soap is just “vaccine-lite”. /s
You joke, but around when covid started I swear a fox news host announced he doesn’t wash his hands cause he doesn’t believe in germs. At this point I wouldn’t be surprised if “soap is evil” became the new conspiracy
ha, found it. It was some guy named Pete Hegseth: “My 2019 resolution is to say things on air that I say off air,” Hegseth began. “I don’t think I’ve washed my hands for 10 years. I don’t really wash my hands ever. I inoculate myself. Germs are not a real thing. I can’t see them, therefore they are not real,” Hegseth added.
I’d hope he was joking but this was on fox so who knows
The best part about all of this is that it’s not even true. They’re not in the boys bathroom. Not by rule, and not commonly, anyway.
Totally norms though? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Oh no! They might learn vaginas exist! 😱 /s
From what I gather, they won’t if the vagina havers have anything to say about it.
One time I was talking about the importance of trap-neuter-release programs in the car back from the GI Joe movie and my uncle aggressively shushed me because my cousin was 12 and they hadn’t told him about sex yet. It took me until like literally this year to realize my family are all fundies because until the last few years they’d been very pro education.
Purely out of curiosity, how long ago was this? Cause if your cousin had access to the internet, there’s a 200% chance he already knew what sex was.
No because that branch of the family didn’t allow internet at all and he didn’t even start laughing at ball jokes until 14. Honestly I never even really heard him talk about friends outside his siblings. Like I’m steadily realizing that my family was actually literal fundies.
You are just now realizing this?
It can difficult to realise patterns like that when you grew up with them in your life.
Yeah my parents went the “don’t ever ever talk about it and pretend it doesn’t exist” route.
The internet taught me quite a bit before my school even bothered. And my school was the Bible-belt abstinence-only kind of education.
Dafuq does traps neuters release programs have to do with the GI Joe movies*?
*If this involves me understanding something from the plot of GI Joe the movie, imma also need a thorough recap.
I grew up with 3 sisters, am I running a risk of turning gay?
Having 3 older brothers would be more likely to make you guys than having 3 sisters
I think it’s something to do with the oven you for baked in after there’s been 3 chicks in there.
There’s a weird correlation that the first boy born after 3 female siblings has an extremely high chance of being gay
Only if you have sex with a woman.
I feel worse having read that.
Thanks I hate it.
It’s amazing you’re still alive after being under the same roof as small pieces of absorbent fabric. However did you survive?
I have no idea, it was very traumatic.
“you ok with that?”
uh, yeah? they’re just sitting there, no one’s being forced to use them.
mind your own damn business.
“Mind your business” was inscribed on the first official US coin, designed by Benjamin Franklin. Much better motto than “In God we trust”.
Imagine being Megyn here, thinking you can convince everyone you care enough about 4th grade boys to be outraged at their overexposure to inert cotton or rayon objects. Well, she’s convinced me! She’s convinced me she’s a shit-stirring cunt.
I also wonder how many of these pearl clutchers who are actually convinced by this rhetoric are confusing tampons with dildos or something. I cannot think of a better explanation than they think these elevated cotton swabs serve some darker/more sinful purpose than sopping up blood and menstrual bits.
They don’t want 4th-grade boys to know what menstruation is. That’s the only thing I can think of.
My grandma in the 30s had to hide all evidence of menstruation from just one of her two younger brothers, the explanation being he was intended for the priesthood. I’m not saying it makes sense.
In what denomination do priests not know what menstruation is?
This was Catholicism. He’s a smart guy and I’m pretty sure he figured it out. Did not become a priest, though, so maybe his mom was right.
This is frustrating because menstruation, while obviously playing a roll in having children, does not equal sex (which is, I assume, why their panties are in a bunch) and plenty of women and trans men who are abstaining from sex or childfree still get periods. We should not be having a moral panic about fucking tampons. Arrrrrrgggghhh
If you are male and afraid of tampons/pads, you are clearly in the wrong
if you’re a male an afraid of tampons/pads, it means you wouldn’t lift a finger to show some empathy if you have a person with a uterus as a partner and they need something.
As a male I feel very confident in saying that if you’re male and afraid of tampons then you’re a fragile little bitch who needs to learn to stop being such a pathetic piece of shit.
The fucking badge of honor a guy wears going into the pharmacy to pick up some feminine products.
i wonder if her viewers see this as a solid attack
The types of viewer she has are the types that need to be outraged over something, anything. So probably.
Even aside from the absurdity of objecting to tampons, the idea that boys were “forced” to do anything is ridiculous. The tampons are just there. She makes it sound like Walz held boys and gunpoint and made them go to a convenience store, buy tampons, and then put them in the school restrooms.
But I guess that’s what I should expect from a professional liar.
Gotta have something to plug the bullet holes.
Like, are you snorting tampons in there, boys? You getting high? Maybe you are turning gay on them, I font know, but I do know I don’t like it.
… “Forced”. Lol.
They aren’t snorting them, but knowing fourth grade boys, they are definitely sticking one in each nostril.
But hey, if it helps a boy who has periods, good.
Hmmm maybe starting fires… I wouldn’t know though.
Now I feel like I missed out in fourth grade.
You have something against kids snorting tampons?
What sort of narc are you?!?
No problem at all. Having been a fourth grade boy, I encourage that sort of comedic genius.
“Being the presence of tampons will literally force boys to transition to girls. I spoke with several scientists that told me this. The penis and testicles will literally shrink and go back up into the boy and transform into a vagina.”
Me buying 1000000000 tampons right now
You joke but that’s the kind of shit fox “news” feeds the cult.
I really wish the courts would make them strip the news title from their stuff if they are going to use the excuse that they aren’t a need company and are purely for entertainment. Bag of dicks I tell ya. Wait, if I put tampons in the bathrooms in government facilities those toxic dumb nuts could just… Leave?
Oh I know, I remembered Jesse Waters talking about men that vote for women will transition into women and that “scientists told him”.
They’re so fucking stupid.
Wait till they get on a plane and find the bathrooms are “bisexual”. These motherfuckers will be jumping out.
Don’t you realize that they wouldn’t be this close minded in the first place if they were traveling and meeting other walks of life? They’re incurious people.
Yeah, but, like… they probably only have one bathroom for everyone in their trailer…
There’s also the fact that many can’t afford to travel. This is why Republicans are so against college. Because it’s often the first time people get outside their hometown and meet people from different walks of life.
It’s also why Republicans complain about real-life having a “liberal bias.”
