The Biggest Loser's Jillian Michaels believes anger won't help win over opponents of gay rights.

The 39-year-old Michaels and her partner Heidi Rhoades are raising two children: Lukensia, whom they adopted from Haiti, and Phoenix.

In an interview with gay glossy Out, Michaels was asked whether she has inadvertently made political statements.

“It depends: Anything I say, I mean. Print is a dangerous medium. Things can be half-a-quote or out of context. Any actual statement I've made, I've meant it. As someone raising two children in a same-sex couple, does it make you angry when the Bryan Fischer's of the world suggest that straight people should kidnap children from gay couples?” Michaels answered.

“I don't believe in flying off the handle. It's not to say I don't believe in anger or take inequality seriously or the fact that gays are literally second-class citizens. But, I appreciate there is a way to go about getting equality. In my opinion, you show those who are threatened by you there is nothing they need to be afraid of. That's how you'll get equality.”
