Trans Bachelorette star Josh Seiter labels Megyn Kelly ‘transphobic and racist’ after podcast host blasted her as a ‘fake woman’ and compared her transition to BLACKFACE

Transgender Bachelorette star Josh Seiter has slammed Megyn Kelly after the former Fox News host called the Chicago-born woman a “fake woman.”

Kelly and two guest panelists slammed Seiter on her SiriusXM show on September 5, even going so far as to compare Seiter’s transition to blackface.

“Can we please talk about the Bachelor contestant who is now claiming to be a woman, which we all know on this show is not possible, sir!” Kelly asked.

‘Look at this man, it’s unbelievable what they can call a woman these days!’

Kelly later asked, “How is this different from minstrel show blackface? The whole thing is designed to mock and belittle us.

“No real trans person would look or act like that. He’s making fun of women.”

Seiter, 37, responded to Kelly’s comments on DailyMail.com, calling them “deeply offensive” and “hurtful.”

“As a woman, I don’t like it when people equate my gender identity with racism or racist statements. It just doesn’t make sense,” Seiter explained.

“Being trans is just me embracing how I feel inside and deciding to dress and act in a way that best reflects my gender identity. It’s not me making fun of a group of people, like blackface is,” Seiter continued.

“She’s just using my name to boost her show’s ratings, but I think she needs a lesson on gender identity, and I’m happy to give it to her.”

Seiter then lashed out at Kelly’s 2018 racism scandal, which led to her talk show being canceled by NBC after she defended her blackface during a controversial segment.

“I think she knows all about blackface, considering her NBC show got canceled when she made comments about it being acceptable for white people to dress up as black celebrities for Halloween. So it’s no surprise that Megyn Kelly is transphobic on top of being racist,” Seiter said.

The former reality star also offered to appear on Kelly’s show to discuss the “woman-to-woman” issue, adding, “I just don’t think she understands the science.”

Seiter also strongly denied manipulating his transition after two panelists on Megyn’s show accused Seiter of “trolling.”

‘I would never fake a transition for likes, and I hate accusing anyone of doing so.

“I am a trans woman and I challenge anyone to prove that I am not,” Seiter said.

Seiter announced in May that he planned to become a woman.

While fans initially welcomed the 38-year-old’s decision, some later questioned her intentions, accusing Seiter of “trolling” for attention.

Seiter, who was involved in a death hoax last year, caused a stir over her gender identity by refusing to shave her body hair, claiming she felt “more feminine” when she didn’t wear a wig.

Speaking to DailyMail.com about the backlash in June, Seiter insisted her transition was real, saying her haters were just jealous of her gorgeous looks.

“I get a lot of hate from the LGBTQ community and from people who consider themselves gatekeepers, even though they preach about love, tolerance and acceptance,” the former stripper said.

“I find it ironic that a movement that values ​​freedom and carving our own unique path is also one of the most condemning. I’ve actually gotten a lot more support from my conservative friends than I have from my so-called liberal friends.”

Seiter said she has been largely unfazed by the negative reactions and widespread speculation surrounding her gender identity.

“I think most people are just jealous that I’m a beautiful trans woman. I’ve noticed that I look better than most of the trans women who hate on me in my DMs and comments, so I think the hate is just jealousy disguised as concern,” Seiter sneered.

“It’s sad that my transition is causing so many people to rebel.”
