Journalist and podcast host Megyn Kelly joined the barrage of comments provoked by a video in which a liberal woman expressed her shock after a date with a “guys’ guy.”
TikToker Madi Hart shared the details of her date and how his traditional masculinity made “the feminism” leave her body. The video sparked reactions from many men online, including columnist and podcast host Matt Walsh whose comments drew a swift response from Kelly.
“Guys, I went on a date this week, and I felt the feminism leaving my body,” the young woman in the video stated.
Explaining how she lives in the “artsy” side of Los Angeles, the self-described comedian shared that she went out with a “bro” from Santa Monica who blew her away by paying for everything.

“I go on dates with a lot of men and woman who, you know, live over here, and there’s always a negotiation about who pays,” she said.
“I sort of fell into going on a date with the most ‘guys’ guy I’ve ever been on a date with,” Hart said. “It befell me in an organic fashion.”
His masculinity surprised her, she admitted, adding that it made her question her liberal views on gender and equality.
“It really just sort of activated something feral in me; I’m not gonna lie,” she laughed.
“It might be time for me to get away from all these, you know, liberal snowflakes on the East Side,” Hart concluded.
Though she readily admitted the surprising reaction she had to her date’s manly gestures, Hart captioned her post with a disclaimer of sorts.
“IM KIDDING!!!” she wrote “Also I checked his politics before hooking up with him don’t worry.”
Hart’s video, with over 400 thousand views on TikTok, generated truckloads of comments on X as well:

I don’t think it was the fact he was paying for things that attracted her. It was the fact that he was assuming responsibility for everything. He was taking control. He took her on a date so he assumed responsibility for everything. That was attractive. A real man does that.

“She’s impressed that the guy paid, which is fine. Women are naturally attracted to providers,” Walsh wrote on X. “But if she likes this aspect of traditional masculinity, she has to accept the rest of it and be willing to play her part and be traditionally feminine. That’s where things usually break down for feminists.”
His comment prompted a reply from Kelly.
“Actually, no she doesn’t. She can find a man who pays and also gets completely hot for a working wife who doesn’t cook or behave like any sort of traditional wife,” the former Fox News host wrote.
