I haven't heard anyone say this, but assuming she has a point(I haven't watched tennis in years), the problem isn't that she was penalized for her behavior, it's that men aren't punished for their transgressions. In other words, the alleged sexism didn't occur during Serena's match, it happens during these hypothetical matches where men aren't properly penalized for berating the ump.

it's that men aren't punished for their transgressions. i think a bunch of people have been posting vids of the umpire in question handing out similar punishments to male players in similarly high profile matches it seems like the actual issue is that he's way stricter in his enforcement of the rules than other umpires which does kinda seem shitty, there should be standardization but it doesnt really jive with the specific accusation of sexism would have to see his entire career reviewed rather than the snippet videos that have been posted, though. --- And when the hourglass has run out, eternity asks you about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not. ...

I don't know enough about tennis to make any real judgment on the sexism claims, but objectively speaking I don't think it should ever be acceptable for a player or coach to speak to a referee that way regardless of the sport. If her objection is that men get away with it, then I think perhaps they should be more strict with the men. I don't really see what it has to do with this match though.

All she did was complain and berate the refs like most people do in sports. You get a technical, fined, etc, and then you move the fuck on. The umpires are acting like pussies.

The way she acted was pretty ridiculous. Like she kept screaming that she doesn't receive any coaching and that any signals were just him giving a thumbs up, then the coach admits later that he was coaching. So Serena's trying to tell us that her coach was making a bunch of signals that he never discussed with her before hand and he does this every match for no reason? Yeah right.
