For some inane reason, Serena Williams felt obliged in the midst of a sports interview to comment on the Steubenville rape case. Maybe being an Amazonian woman who can bench press three tractors makes you less sympathetic to the plight of weaker girls, but Serena blurted out some ‘real feelings’ that sort of seemed to blame the high school girl who was passed out and got raped by the football team. She even questioned the intact state of her hymen. That doesn’t seem like such a smart idea.
She’s 16, why was she that drunk where she doesn’t remember? It could have been much worse. She’s lucky. Obviously I don’t know, maybe she wasn’t a virgin, but she shouldn’t have put herself in that position, unless they slipped her something, then that’s different.”
She’ll probably clarify her comments now that they’re out, issue some apology, and she probably never meant it to come out like that in the first place. Still, any half-witted man knows when anything to do with sexual assault comes up you shake your head and say ‘that’s horrible’, and then shut your fucking mouth. There’s no upside to commenting.
