| Feminazism The Wimbledon Championships will offer women and men equal prize money for the first time at this year's tournament. BBC SPORT | Tennis | Wimbledon pays equal prize money
Why should woman be paid the same amount of prize money as men when men do twice as much work, are twice as much more skilful at tennis, and attract twice as much more ratings?
I'm disappointed that this has been based on equal opportunities and rights. It's completely lost the point of equality. Why do these Feminazis think there is a ‘women’s competition’ and a ‘men’s competition’?
Alternatively, I could praise this ‘politically correct’ change and go on to suggest that we now scrap having a separate competitions for males and females and introduce the reality of extreme equality by forcing men and woman to play in the same competition altogether. 
Beware! For Feminazism believes females are superior species to males. It is the belief that criminals are not responsible for their actions. It is the oppression of male rights. It is the hope for future disfranchisement of males. It is the system where males are forced to feel guilty. It is the belief that a hug or two could end world suffering. It is the cause for inequality. It is the system where a man should learn to cope with domestic violence from a woman. It is the belief that men should be the housekeeper whilst the woman earns less income. It is the issue where a woman must be worshipped. It is the system whereby males must wear a uniform but females can wear anything. It is the belief that psychos and paedophiles should be given sympathy. It is the cause for chaos. It is the belief that the toilet seat must be kept down even if there are more males in the building. Beware of the FEMINAZI. You may well be one.

I'd start running if I was you, Casper, because if the waves of hatred my friend Jan is projecting at you at this moment ever reach you your ball will fall off. (Yes, I know that I used the singular.)

| I think these figures are more appropriate with regard to women getting equal money.
Last year, for instance, Roger Federer had to play 202 games on his way to taking the title, whereas Amélie Mauresmo took the women's crown in just 142 yet she was paid only 5% less than Federer (£625,000 to his £655,000). That's equivalent to £4,401 per game instead of £3,094 per game, and the disparity might have been greater if Federer had dropped more than a single set on his way to the title. That works out at 30% more pay per game, I think the men should get more money or reduce the money the women get! Guardian Unlimited: Sport blog: All things not equal at Wimbledon If the women played as many games then maybe, but as it is they already get more money than men per game. Why should they get more? |

| Your argument doesn't hold water because we are talking about mass entertainment here, which is to say bums placed on seats at the turnstiles, along with advertising and TV revenue, and not piece work at a brick works. Female tennis players are as big a draw - and often more of a draw - as their male counterparts and should be paid accordingly.

| So how long have the women been asking for more money and how long have the women attracted more viewers? |

| I'm one! I think that female tennis players should be payed the same wages as their male counterparts. Seems fair enough to me.......
And yes of course that means that I hate all men and believe that women are superior to men. I think all men should be gassed in torture chambers leaving only women on the earth to reproduce by means of artificial insemination. So watch your backs lads! This Feminazi uprising is stronger than you think! Quick phone the Daily Mail before it all gets out of control!!! |
