MacWalka Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 47 minutes ago, phart said: 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.

brant grebner Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 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?

She probably took longer to paint her nails and tuck her dick in than she did to play tennis. 10 minutes ago, brant grebner said: Serena Williams on the mooted Williams vs Andy Murray match in 2013 "Men's tennis and women's tennis are almost two separate sports.

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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brant grebner Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Surely Rossy was being transphobic rather than a misogynist? Unless you agree with hateful trans-exclusionary radical feminists like Germaine Greer that a lady with penis is actually a man, in which case he was being a misandrist.

Rossy Posted March 22, 2016 Author Share Posted March 22, 2016 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.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newryrep Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
