Judge Judy To Megyn Kelly: ‘I’m Not A Feminist’ | Megyn Kelly TODAY

[kimjong-un]

She's too logical to be a feminist.

[Whoami]

She didn't make excuses, she didn't play victim. She studied, she worked hard and she earned her position. That's why so many men and women respect her.

[Ill.righteous]

I like the way Judy cringed when Megyn said "women in control"

[paramdrall]

" I'm not a Woman Judge... I'm a Judge who happens to be a woman "

That's what Empowerment looks like !

[ShieldsJustice]

Look at all the feminists in the comments all upset because Judy is taking credit for her own life. She made the life she wanted and owes nobody, no group, or any movement for all of her success.

[soot]

I don't watch Judy because I want to see a woman in control but rather because she is intelligent.

[morrisontheoverman]

Judge Judy is holding back I can sense the high level of intelligence in her, she's just avoiding unnecessary arguments

[cedric]

A woman who didn't use self-victimization to climb the ladder. She has my respect.

[madelinevance]

Didn’t she once say something like, “They don’t keep me here because I’m beautiful, they keep me here because I’m smart.”

[iluvmyeski]

Its always the smartest women, that say they aren't feminists.

[LJay]

Now this is what a "strong woman" really is

[fanybidan]

In college, 50% of my teachers were male and 50% were female. And let me tell you: the female teachers were rude, they would practically insult us, they would sort of do their job and they would always favor the guys over the girls. Male teachers were more patient with us and they were passionate about their subjects. Since college, I realized that women don't have you back, and you need to be your own hero. So BRAVO Judge

[jmini]

"I'm not a feminist - I'm an individualist." LOVE IT!

[alnotbiggaytho]

0:15 Megyn: "women in control"
Judy: *rolls eyes*

[yrujgoi]

She's too smart to be a feminist.

[Mila-Nova]

Feminism is problematic af. I agree with Judy.

[louiemeister]

You don’t watch Jordan Peterson because he’s a man, you watch him because he’s entertains and smart.

You don’t watch judge Judy because she’s a woman, you watch her because she’s entertaining and smart.

Same thing

[danielscott]

I respect her honesty. It's sometimes brutal, but that is exactly what the world needs. Tough love

[AtomLabX]

The way she rolled her eyes when she said you’re a man and a woman in control — love you judge — keep rocking it!

[thatnerdiscool]

No. You can’t be the best burger flipper ever. That belongs to Spongebob. He satisfied a whole bus of anchovies in under a minute. It was an incredible feat.
