Serena Williams bashes complaining men as 'weenies'. "Women are way tougher than men." "We ladies don't complain, we just do our best."

Isn't this the woman who competed against the man ranked less than 200 and lost horribly?

But yeah, totally, no complaining, just go out there and play.

I agree with her that Nadal and Djokovic are complaining way too much about the blue clay but turning it into a "Men complain, women are tough!" is laughable.

"You guys could never handle kids" .. tell that to the 4 million men who fight for custody of their children every year, even though they know how bigoted and sexist our feminist family courts are. Almost as sexist as the entitled and privileged princess Serena Williams.

aetheralloy · 2012-05-14T20:22:54+00:00

ladies don't complain

ROFLMAO

KingNick · 2012-05-14T20:54:18+00:00

I love how women think childbirth is the worst pain in existence.

As a Cluster Migraine Sufferer...I can attest to it being the worst pain in the world PROOF

And even then, childbirth is still beneath the pain of passing Kidney Stones.

YadaYadaYada2 · 2012-05-14T18:33:44+00:00

Are women players still playing best of three sets, compared to best of five for men, while both have equal winnings.

ChesterMcFistiecuffs · 2012-05-14T20:51:02+00:00

You guys could never handle kids.

What an empty, deplorable potshot at men. I'm not even sure what she means by this. Does she mean that men could never handle being pregnant, or men could never handle raising children. Fathers can be excellent care givers.

2012-05-14T22:23:51+00:00

...said the complaining woman.

LAMFF · 2012-05-14T19:10:32+00:00

Last time I checked Serena has no children.

Mitschu · 2012-05-14T20:27:01+00:00

To clarify the issue with blue clay vs red clay;

"The players, which included Victoria Azarenka, as well as Nadal and Djokovic, each noted that the courts were slippery and unpredictable.

Azarenka: "You feel unstable sometimes. Actually, a lot of times."

Nadal: "Being able to move is very important for me and if I can't move well, I can't hit the ball well, either. If things don't change, this will be one less tournament on the calendar for me. This surface destabilizes the game. It is a completely different game and I don't want to take risks."

Djokovic: "I want to forget this week as soon as possible and move on to the real clay courts. Here you can't predict the ball bounce or movement. They can do whatever they want, but I won't be here next year if this clay stays."

Even Roger Federer, who won in Madrid, said this: "It has been a tough tournament. Tough to move, but you've got to try to make the most of it. Here there was some good tennis and some bad tennis, but you see that in all tournaments."

There also was the issue that both Nadal and Djokovic brought up before the tournament: They want a say in what happens on their tour.

Later on in the article:

For some, of course, the blue clay was much ado about nothing. Madrid women's champ Serena Williams, of instance, called the complainers — Djokovic and Nadal? — weenies.

"Women are way tougher than men. That's why we have the babies," Williams told Reuters.

AntiFeministMedia · 2012-05-14T18:20:39+00:00

She's a 'big fish in a small pond'.

Lets see her play on the mens tour.

2012-05-14T18:57:19+00:00

Says she who only plays 3 sets like a girl.

fondueguy · 2012-05-14T19:32:56+00:00

If ladies don't complain, then why is it that the movement meant to represent them is ALL about complaining?

celibacy4life · 2012-05-14T20:51:58+00:00

I am glad to see that female athletes will also say stupid things to the media. Picking this logic apart is too easy. I'll just mention that she has no kids so how would she know?

NiceGuysSTFU · 2012-05-14T18:35:06+00:00

That's why we have the babies. You guys could never handle kids.

Nice. I hope her attitude holds true for her and her baby daddy walks out on her. After all, men never have kids.

CRASNY · 2012-05-14T19:14:20+00:00

Well, here's a video of Serena Williams complaining quite like a weenie: http://articles.businessinsider.com/2011-09-11/sports/30155451_1_hater-line-judges-gawker

johntheother · 2012-05-14T22:26:45+00:00

I guess Martin Luther King, along with other civil rights activists who fought ( complained ) for years to combat the racist marginalization of blacks - they were 'weenies' too. Good job Serena, you privileged pampered bigot.

drinkthebleach · 2012-05-15T00:02:49+00:00

"We ladies don't complain."

relevant

CrawdaddyJoe · 2012-05-14T19:21:40+00:00

Men are no more 'weenies' than women are 'pussies', and both terms need to stop being thrown around to silence people with legitimate complaints. Women do complain, and they should- there are legitimate things that women have to complain about, as there are legitimate things for men to complain about. While we can all think of a time when we've heard some petty or unjustified complaining, we should never promote the idea that it is shameful or wrong for a person to voice grievances or advocate for themselves.

Edit: That said, seriously, blue clay? That's what they're complaining about? The particular men she's talking about here were complaining about some petty, irrelevant stuff. Still, doesn't justify her sweeping generalizations.

bigbadgreg · 2012-05-14T23:43:48+00:00

And the award for most awkward display of feminist bravado goes to...

mikesteane · 2012-05-15T07:13:41+00:00

So ladies will now be playing the full five sets that men play for the same money?

MRMRising · 2012-05-14T19:32:15+00:00

You guys could never handle kids."

I wonder if she knows that children with there father do better in school than with there mother.

deadcat · 2012-05-14T23:13:34+00:00

Ladies don't complain? AHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Sorry.

kragmoor · 2012-05-14T21:14:37+00:00

ow my sides

2012-05-14T21:32:03+00:00

She is clearly a grown up.

Torquemada1970 · 2012-05-15T11:59:07+00:00

Serena Williams being a perfect representation of the female form, of course, and in no way resembles a Street Fighter character in terms of physique

My-Work-Reddit · 2012-05-15T17:12:36+00:00

Yeah ... I couldn't finish reading that quote without laughing.

nlakes · 2012-05-15T02:15:44+00:00

"We ladies don't complain, we just do our best."

Obviously, she has never met a feminist.

Remember WatsonGate? All these women bitching about how men should act in elevators. Complaining about men who just dare to take the same stairwell that she was taking.

ThePigman · 2012-05-15T01:11:09+00:00

What an asshole.

TomBayes · 2012-05-15T14:22:53+00:00

Do you think her hand hurts from patting herself on the back so hard? Or is that another one of those women are tougher than men, so she can't tell?

Bohica69 · 2012-05-15T15:00:42+00:00

Jesus fuck, she's as ugly as a mud fence. I mean fucking UGLY. Lol That's got to be like fucking a barnyard animal when they bed her.

Bohica69 · 2012-05-15T18:12:06+00:00

She has an enormous cock. I mean enormous.

equality4everyone · 2012-05-15T01:59:15+00:00

Has Serena Williams ever met a woman? They complain about EVERYTHING!

The_final_chapter · 2012-05-14T22:47:53+00:00

...sticks and stones...

SheriffBart42 · 2012-05-15T03:56:02+00:00

Add her attitude to her ridiculous curves as reasons to want to fuck her silly.

Lecks · 2012-05-15T00:49:57+00:00

I don't know enough about tennis to really make an informed opinion, but from what I've seen, it's one of the only real sports I've watched where the women are just as good as the men. Am I mistaken? Also, what's the big deal about red clay vs blue clay? is it tradition or aesthetics or does it play differently? Why would the men have a problem with blue?

rmw91 · 2012-05-15T01:40:07+00:00

/r/MensRights: Complaining about the comments of one woman who lives in a society that designates women as the the weaker sex that needs to be protected ("be a man", "don't be such a girl" etc). No wonder why nobody takes /r/mensrights seriously.
