    Overpaid women.

    Women to be paid the same as men at Wimbledon.

    This realy annoys me.
    Women want equality, which I totaly agree with, but they never want to do the hard bit that accounts for the difference in the first place.

    Why not just have one Wimbledon champion and let them all play for it? If women are equal then surely they can win it?
    There is a bloody difference and they should accept it.
    Same with those dinner ladies getting back pay in equality with bin men. Who the fook decided that they were equal jobs?
    Political correctness gone mad. AGAIN.
    I am not qualified to give the above advice!

    Surely if they want the same money they should have to win 3 sets.
    The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

    But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

        Yeah I guess that would be acceptable ;-)

            Is it the thought of Lindsay Davenport in the buff?

              Emily Wilding Davison would be so proud that she didn't die in vain and society has come so far... I think not.

                  Are there any women that want to make a comment? ...But then again don’t bother I doubt 'The Lone Gunman' would take you seriously anyway.

                    Ms Davison and other ladies of her persuasion wanted equal rights for women. Including equal pay for equal work.
                    What is being asked for today is higher pay for equal work or higher pay for less work.
                    The men at Wimbledon have to play best of 5 sets and face srving speeds well in excess of what the women face.
                    My proposal of one champion (that goes for any sport) would give Ms Davison exactly what she wanted.

                    If there is a difference between the sexes then accept it in all parts of life, if there is equality then let us fight for it in all parts.

                    You think, not!
