If you like women with big arses and a boaby, then you carry on mate. Makes absolutely no difference to me.

I'm still your buddy :ok:

:lol:

 

I'm just saying that Serena's that nice I could maybe turn a blind eye tae the wanger if she at least tucked it away oot o' decency.

We're speaking now though, since the implementation of equal pay at Wimbledon.

As a Prize fighting fan, I see folk getting paid millions to fight while better fighters only get £20,000. You get paid what you draw in that sport. So it's easier for me to view it in that context.

I don't have an issue with that philosophy but looking at a singular tournament, the whole thing is packaged together rather than having a particular match making the headlines to draw the punters in. Therefore I have no issue with the overall pay being split equally with each of the tournament brackets and then broken down by performance. I suppose the same argument could be trotted out for doubles and wheelchair brackets at the slams too.

Personally I don't really care either way as I can see the merits of both arguments. The only real difference in demand is at the top of the men's game so I can't see how rich guys getting richer will make me give a much of a shit either.

Serena Williams on the mooted Williams vs Andy Murray match in 2013

"Men's tennis and women's tennis are almost two separate sports. If I was to play Andy Murray I would lose 6-0, 6-0 in five to six minutes, maybe 10 minutes."

Is Williams a misogynist who publicly denigrates the women's game with remarks like this?

A million for every hour she was on court.

She probably took longer to paint her nails and tuck her dick in than she did to play tennis.

No one is a misogynist for saying "elite men are better at tennis than the elite women". Complete straw man. 

I said Rossy was a misogynist for his comment above. Not for saying women should play five sets or that women aren't as good at tennis.

I wouldn't like to be a trans/mis-anything, so I do apologise for my rather inappropriate remark.

It did manage to give Ormond a bit of a stiffy though, so it wasn't completely wasted.... :ok:

Or combine the tours and make it a meritocracy. Yeah I agree, much more important things to worry about,

You're my favourite Don on here. It'll no' be the first time you've given me a stiffy pal. :wub:

don't women make more generally in non tennis related sponsorship  ? ( a bit like the porn industry... or so I have heard)  than the men while I appreciate not all women tennis players look like ivanovic or kornakova but I thought I read that their sponsorship deals were far in excess of the men
