Fox Guest: Liberal Myths Are Making Spring Break Dangerous For Women (VIDEO)

Fox News host Sean Hannity on Tuesday night dove back into the world of scantily-clad, booze-fueled college students on spring break.

Already armed with the knowledge of how to use a beer bong, Hannity discussed the debauchery his crew caught on tape this year with a panel that included Gavin McInnes, a former Vice co-founder who’s written such articles as “Transphobia is perfectly natural” and “When is it ever OK to hit a woman?” for the website Thought Catalog.

McInnes argued that liberals who promote gender equality have made women who choose to go on spring break “more vulnerable.”

“I think this is a perfect example of liberals’ cognitive dissonance where they say ‘Everything’s cool. Hey, it’s spring break. People party. Women are the same as men,'” McInnes said. “When you have that stupid lie in your mind you end up making women more vulnerable. These women are not as strong as men.”

“When you let them go down there, you’re a terrible parent,” he added. “If you let your son go down there, you’re a fairly bad parent. But sons are different than daughters.”

Hannity later asked McInnes whether that was a double standard.

“Of course it is,” he responded. “We’re different. Sorry. Equality is a myth.”

Ainsley Earhardt, who traveled to Panama City, Fla. to film the spring break expose for “Hannity,” told McInnes his take was “archaic.”

“You’re making women less safe,” McInnes shouted over Earhardt. “That attitude makes women less safe when you say ‘boys will be boys and girls will be girls, they’re all the same.'”

“Right, boys sometimes can be worse than girls because boys are lustful,” Earhardt said. “Boys will do things that they shouldn’t be doing that they get away with because they don’t get a reputation like a woman. That’s not fair.”

“Right, so drill that into your daughter and say ‘You’re weak. You’re vulnerable. You’re not a superhero. You’re in danger,'” McInnes said.

Clearly little progress has been made since last year’s “Hannity” spring break investigation, when McInnes and Earhardt got into the exact same argument.

“The women [on spring break] are human garbage whose parents don’t love them,” McInnes said on the 2014 “Hannity” panel.
