What reaction do you expect to such a question? Are spokespeople from the groups listed going to log in here to give you their group’s official position on the matter? What has the incident to do with the ideology or format of any of these groups? What do YOU say about equality and Serena Williams’ outburst?
More importantly, what do dentists, iron workers, and software developers say about this?
HEY! Don’t forget Truckers as well.

Being a member or supporter of a political group,( not necessarily a spokesperson) or psychoogist, social worker, different from most other professions, when it comes to equality of men and women, sexism, etc.
The only group that I can imagine would view the incident as any way political would be feminists, and even they seem somewhat unexcited by the affair.
Edited:
It’s no different from a democrat is likely to say abortion ok, republican not. Males going into toilets meant for females, democrat likely to say ok, republicans likley no.
Is it a communist or a republican or libretarian or democrats who would find the incident about equality? Which one/s find it about something else, and what is that?
Okay, but the problem here is that there is no political aspect to the incident. You might as well ask for the positions of those groups on butter pecan ice cream or enchiladas. In fact the reason your question remains free from hot debate is probably because those of us sympathetic to the groups listed are in agreement that the incident has little to do with equality.
But no one gave that answer, (“those of us sympathetic to the groups listed are in agreement that the incident has little to do with equality.”, which by the way is a political/social opinion) before my last 2 posts.
You’re hurting yourself with the “pecan ice cream, and enchiladas” part.
Also, what do sympathizers of all these groups likey to say it’s about?
@flo: “You’re hurting yourself with the “pecan ice cream, and enchiladas” part.”
Counterpoint: Pecan ice cream and enchiladas are delicious.
@flo what it’s about is a pissed off superlative athlete who thinks she got a bad call. There’s no political hay to be garnered from that. She requires neither prosecution nor defense, particularly since either her or her sister are destined to mop the floor with whomever has the misfortune to face them next year.
@stanleybmanly Is that a fence I see there? Or is it that you obviously figure that she requires a defence, according to that post.
You view my post as a defense of Serena?
I should have ignored this question when you posted it. But I found myself just staring at the words trying to imagine a hookup from a chair referee’s ruling to disparate divisive politics. Thanks to your link, I don’t see anyway to fault the chair judge’s decision, politically or otherwise. Serena was understandably amped up, and needed to vent some steam. She threw a fit, she took the hit.
The official did the right thing. Serena was wound pretty tight, and vented openly as has happened time and again with other players. She doesn’t want him to do the “wrong thing”. She asserts that there is a double standard at work. Even she doesn’t claim that the existence of that standard justifies her behavior. In the past when McEnroe routinely hurled epithets and chairs at referees, no one regarded his outbursts as political. Are you claiming that because a woman claiming mistreatment somehow elevates the matter to the political arena?
