(DCNF)—“The View” co-host Whoopi Goldberg claimed Monday that anyone opposing trans-identifying men from competing in women’s sports fails to understand basic female anatomy.
Goldberg told Dylan Mulvaney, a trans-identifying male activist, that those against men competing in women’s sports are ignorant about women’s bodies and just immediately assume that female athletes are weak. Studies have proven that men are biologically stronger and carry more body mass than women, posing an unfair advantage to male athletes and a higher risk of injury for women.
“I think part of the problem that the trans community is facing is the same problem that women face,” Goldberg said. “Is if you don’t know anything about our bodies, then you don’t know how it works. So, when you come in and you say ‘oh, these are men competing against women,’ you’re assuming that the women are weak and just can’t do anything. Have you seen female athletes? They know what they’re doing. So I don’t know what’s going on or why this is an issue.”
“The same for me when people say, ‘oh, you know, I don’t know how I feel about you.’ You do, God doesn’t make mistakes. And the challenge is not to the trans people, it’s to the people who are not trans. That’s what God is looking to see, how you treat people. That’s what is happening,” Goldberg continued.
Despite Goldberg’s claims, women athletes’ body strength is typically between 40% to 75% that of men’s, meaning that male athletes naturally have significantly more upper and lower body strength compared to their female counterparts, according to the National Library of Medicine. Men also have been found to have “significantly higher” muscle thickness and larger body sizes compared to women, a 2002 study by Princeton University found.
One study found that untrained college men have “greater upper and lower body strength” than trained collegiate women athletes, according to the National Library of Medicine.
Female athletes have repeatedly suffered from serious injuries at the hands of trans-identifying male athletes. In April 2023, 19-year-old Payton McNabb suffered from a brain bleed a traumatic brain injury, partial paralysis and loss of peripheral vision on her right side after a male athlete spiked a volleyball into her head in North Carolina.
Three players on a high school rugby team were also injured after being slammed by a male competitor in April 2022, the Washington Examiner reported. A six-foot male basketball player with facial hair injured several players in Lowell, Massachusetts, while footage shows one girl falling to the ground and clutching her back in pain as the male wrestled the ball away from her on the court, the Heritage Foundation reported.
Another male athlete knocked a girl’s teeth out during a field hockey game in Massachusetts, according to Heritage.
Female athletes have consistently decried men competing against them, stating that they have dominated their competitions. Male swimmer Lia Thomas, who identifies as a woman, famously defeated the other female competitors by almost 1.75 seconds in the 500-yard freestyle event at the 2022 National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Women’s Championships in March 2022.
Thomas went from ranking 544th in the men’s competition to being the top-ranked swimmer in the women’s competition, indicating that he had a clear advantage by competing against female swimmers.
Former college swimmer Riley Gaines, who competed against Thomas, said in June 2023 that the NCAA allowed Thomas to change in the girls’ locker room, leaving herself and her fellow female counterparts traumatized.
President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Feb. 5 to prohibit men from competing in women’s sports and to direct the Department of Education to investigate any school that violates his presidential action.
