The announcement that Jenner will join Fox as an official commentator faced a backlash from the trans and non-binary community.
They have also lashed out at transgender athlete Lia Thomas, who recently won the NCAA swimming championship.
Talking with Hannity in her first appearance as a contributor to the program on Thursday, Jenner said:"As you know, I am trans but I'm not a trans activist. That's just one part of my life. There's so much more to me."Clymer argued that as one of the most visible transgender people in the world, what Jenner says may be the first thing the majority of the public hears about issues related to trans rights.
"This is a question of fairness. That's why I oppose biological boys who are trans competing in girls' sports in school. It just isn't fair, and we have to protect girls' sports in our schools," she said.
