"The View" co-hosts are going on the offensive to slam men who are "pissed" over Taylor Swift's attending NFL games in support of boyfriend Travis Kelce.
During Wednesday's episode of the talk show, Whoopi Goldberg introduced the topic of Swift's presence this football season at Kansas City Chiefs games to support Kelce. "So my question is, 'What are you so pissed about? Why are you so mad?'" she said of the male outrage. "There's so, so many things to be angry at in this world. Why are these men toxically masculine?"
Then, co-host Sara Haines chimed in about how Swift is seemingly shaking things up for the NFL.
"You're welcome in as a mom, a girlfriend who doesn't take up too much attention, a cheerleader. You had to fit those traditional roles. Here comes Taylor Swift," Haines said. "She has more money, therefore more power. She's more famous, and she's coming in to see her boyfriend in his home in a football stadium."

Swift made her 12th NFL appearance at the AFC Championship showdown between the Kansas City Chiefs and Baltimore Ravens to cheer on Kelce on Sunday. And no matter what the dads, Brads and Chads have said about Swift being a distraction to the Chiefs, the red-and-gold team have a 9-3 record with Swift in the stands.
Haines added that Swift's appearances at Kelce's games are "very uncomfortable for some people, and I would argue it goes beyond men. I would actually say the bias is also existing in women."

Men who criticize Taylor Swift's NFL game appearances 'need some therapy,' Joy Behar says
Another co-host of "The View," Joy Behar, said she felt bad for men criticizing the singer because "things have not gone their way" as women continue to make professional gains in American culture. "These guys need some therapy," she added.
"Go get a shrink! I mean, they don't consider it masculine to be in therapy. It is not about masculine (or) feminine, it is about your brain, and so they need some help, and that’s why I feel sorry for them," Behar said.
The table's legal hawk Sunny Hostin agreed with Behar and blamed the lack of socialization between men. "If they show her for 25 seconds joining and supporting her partner, then I don't know what's wrong with that," Hostin said.

Taylor Swift lands on Billboard's Power 100 list
Aside from being a topic of conversation on "The View" − and in every other corner of the internet − Swift also made headlines Wednesday when Billboard announced the "Lover" singer topped their annual Power 100 list.
"Usually, these people are executives, who toil in offices and keep their minds on the money, so that the creators they serve can focus on their art," Billboard noted.
The accolade was notable considering Swift is not a traditional executive, and Billboard pointed to her gargantuan reach and the fact that her Eras Tour was the highest-grossing tour of all time. It was also the first tour to surpass $1 billion in revenue.
"This year, though, the mastermind behind most of the industry's record-breaking achievements — from a historic stadium run that fueled an unprecedented rule atop the Billboard 200 albums chart to the most profitable concert film of all time — was an artist herself," they continued. "Taylor Swift doesn't refer to herself publicly as an executive, but she designed and executed one of the most ambitious, innovative and successful business plans the music industry has ever seen."
