My sister-in-law posted something to this effect on Facebook. That if you're okay with how the ref handled SW, then you're complacent in misogyny. I think I groaned out loud. It's like, if you don't believe XYZ then you hate women or you're a self hating woman.
The moral of the story that I'm getting out of this whole thing and the defense of SW, is that because men sometimes behave like idiots, Serena should be able to behave like an idiot? Because that's exactly how she came off. Osaka was in tears at the end of what should have been a triumphant moment for her, even apologized and people are still falling all over themselves trying to make excuses for Serena's behavior. It's maddening.
I think more attention needs to be given to Naomi Osaka. She's an incredible talent. Take a moment to read up on her if you have some time.
