Tomi Lahren Claims Billy Porter, LGBTQ People Attacked Masculinity

Fox News correspondent Tomi Lahren flipped oppressor and victim when she went after LGBTQ people for allegedly “attacking” traditional masculinity in a pair of tweets reacting to Pose’s Billy Porter sporting a tuxedo gown on the Oscars red carpet Sunday.


Twitter users were quick to drag Lahren, who appears on a pair of shows on the network’s streaming service Fox Nation, for her comments about masculinity. But Lahren, who’s renowned for making purposeful controversial statements, doubled down on her hot take that “traditional” men are under siege.

The button-pushing Lahren's previous outrageous statements include comparing Black Lives Matter to the KKK, mocking the student survivors of the Parkland shooting, and referring to Rep. Joseph P. Kennedy as a “little limp dick.”

While Lahren says that “traditional” masculinity is under attack, Porter, who is gay, spoke out about how homophobia and repressive ideas about what it means to be a man forced him to remain in a kind of fashion closet.
