Serena responds to Ilie Nastase

It disappoints me to know we live in a society where people like Ilie Nastase can make such racist comments towards myself and unborn child, and sexist comments against my peers. I have said it once and Ill say it again, this world has come so far but yet have so much further to go. Yes, we have broken down so many barriers- however there are a plethora more to go. This or anything else will not stop me from pouring love, light and positivity into everything that I do. I will continue to take a lead and stand up for whats right. I am not afraid unlike you. You see, I am no coward. Does my sassiness upset you? Why are you beset with gloom? You may shoot me with your words
you may try to kill me with your hatefulness, but still like air, I rise.
I humbly thank the ITF for any consideration given to all the facts in this case. They will have my full support.

She is the same Serena who called a rape victim lucky?
Maybe it isn't sexist when women do it to women.

Your statement which is made with absolutely no context, reveals your state of mind when you discuss whether or not Serena is the GOAT.

Serena was referring to a specific incident, where the person involved showed poor judgment.
I don't remember the exact details but I had questions about it too.

What the hell is wrong with Nastase? Didn't he learn anything from that fool Tarpischev who suggested Serena and Venus were guys?
Seems like racist attitudes will never die.

I don't know why anyone would find Serena or Venus manly, Serena especially. I don't get it. Serena is the very definition of femininity.

Great response from Ms Williams but she also made derogatory comments about a rape victim as well.
Karma?

Yuh don't quit? You've expressed your biased, negative, near prejudicial opinion on the Williams sisters 1000000 times. Leff she lone and go tek a selfie or sumting, she might not be as effeminate as you, but she exudes plenty femininity and darn near sexy as rass to most warm blooded males.

Most non-blacks do not find her attractive. Try again.
Btw I rarely post about either of them. Whether they win or lose, couldn't care less.

You open your mouth and nonsense come out.
Did your world survey of non blacks, showed you that?

Thousands of racist comments about Serena from non-blacks on youtube videos or online articles are more than enough.

Definition of sexism
1
: prejudice or discrimination based on sex; especially : discrimination against women
2
: behavior, conditions, or attitudes that foster stereotypes of social roles based on sex
I would love to hear your intellectual breakdown of how chocolate and milk is racist and sexist yet saying a woman is at fault for being raped because she drank too much.
But hey I am not the intellectual here.

Black don't be an ass. The young lady was drunk and she was raped. That is not on her so don't defend a stupid statement

And you base your argument on youtube videos?
It like saying most small men, like fat women.
She may not be your favourite tennis player, by why should anything other than tennis, should have you talking about her?

So really, the first statement ought to be instead:
"Most racist
internet trolls do not find her attractive"?
Because, after all, replace Serena with Michelle Obama and you find the same set of trolls. Or Oprah Winfrey.
