Japanese is correct and Black is correct. neither are wrong and both don't need mentioning in order to be accurate. but you're correct. "race" opinions change depending on who that person is. it's also very telling when people aren't consistent. from how they talk about Obama to Rashida Jones. let Rashida Jones start being vocal about police brutality, and you'll see how quick she loses her White card to certain demographics. if she started that "Blue Lives" stuff, she'd have been called other things, too.</quote> Who has called rashida white, ever?</quote> Someone post the red carpet interview where the interviewer didn't know Rashida was half-black. >_></quote> this one? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rBi87TU_Duw" data-time="</quote> But they didnt say youre white</quote> ...

And shit like that happens every day. It's something you're taught when you're a fucking toddler. Just because some one gets away with something doesn't mean it is OK to do the same. I'd have more compassion for Serena if she was in a dead tie with Osaka and got totally hosed. But she was getting hammered. It just comes off as petulant and childish to go after a judge because you didn't agree with his calls. It's all you hear about now, "Serena in controversy at the open....oh and some girl Naomi Osaka won the title..." And don't even go off about "I am here fighting for women's rights!" lmao just stop.

Lol now youre trying to insult my home out of the blue because youre too immature to come up with a reasonable argument. Hawaii has some of the fewest flyovers while being known as one of the most beautiful states in America. In tennis, GameFAQs, or just real life in general, just because someone else gets away with breaking the rules doesnt make it right. If people were more mature and realized this, there wouldnt be people whining like Serena. Her coach cheated, she acted like a child and smashed her racket, then argued with the umpire. Its not like she was instantly punished. She had a warning and a minor penalty first. But I suppose blind fanboys will just ignore that fact and remain on the sexist wagon. --- ( ^_^)/\(^_^ ) Maya high five! <cite>fuzzylittlbunny posted [p:908459090] in Serena Wil...

haloiscoolisbak 09/10/18 9:20:52 AM #248:	It all comes down to how many times you commit an offence. A male player might blow up and swear and perhaps come across worse than Serena did in her tantrum, but if it's not the third time he's broken the rules that match he won't get a game penalty. It goes warning, point penalty, game penalty then either a set penalty or a DQ, I'm not sure what comes next. But it's as simple as that --- Started from the bottom now we here <cite>haloiscoolisbak posted [p:908460800] in Serena Wil...

White Eagle 09/10/18 9:49:37 AM #250:	First of all, those videos don't compare to what Serena did. In one of them, the "argument" is Murray blandly asking why a player is being allowed to challenge. One is Novak arguing about the rain, arguably a dangerous condition for both players. None of them show the player actively berating the umpire like Serena did. Oh wait, one did, and Djokovic was given a violation! It's even Ramos, the same chair umpire from the women's final, and he's giving a violation to a man. How about that? Again, the game penalty wasn't some arbitrary thing Serena was subject to. It was because of her multiple violations over the course of the match. All of those videos are from separate matches, so, even if all of them even showed a comparable violation, it's not the same because if it's someone's first violation then it's universally a warning. Just like how Serena was warned on her first violation. --- Detroit Red Wings http://media.zenfs.com/en/blogs/sptusnhlexperts/108545331.jpg <cite>White Eagle posted [p:908461893] in Serena Wil...
