Michele Tafoya: No amount of hormone therapy will change differences between men and women

Former sports reporter Michele Tafoya argued that biological men should not play in women’s sports Thursday on "The Story" after the House of Representatives passed the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act. The legislation aims at preventing biological males from competing as transgender athletes in girls’ and women’s sports at schools across the country, and not one Democrat voted in favor of it.

MICHELE TAFOYA: I really I keep waking up every morning thinking, OK, has the world turned right side up again? And it still hasn't. I mean, sadly, what we saw today was really a symbolic vote. Not a single Democrat voted for this bill to protect girls and women and to call it transphobic ignores one of the clauses. It is a very short bill, but one of the sentences in it says this doesn't prohibit a male who is now identifying as a female to practice or participate with a girls’ team or women's team, but they cannot supplant, they cannot replace the woman on that team.

No woman, no girl should be deprived of her roster, spot or any other benefits that go along with that. So, to say this is transphobic or hate filled is just flat out wrong. But again, the Democrats are the party of science, right? They're the party of women, and today they showed they're anything but. The science tells us that men and women, when they are born, when they are conceived, are chromosome only different, two Xs or an X and a Y. Which one are you?

Based on that, we are built differently. We have physical differences. Men cannot have babies as much as people want to tell you that they can and women have a menstrual cycle that they have to compete with. Transgender women do not have that. They do not have a uterus. They do not have these things that they would have to then compete through and compete with. There are biological, scientifically based differences between men and women, and no amount of hormone therapy is going to change that.
