why does she get so much abuse? is it beause women aren't supposed to be all competitive? or is it because mothers aren't?

i don't know why it annoys so many people that she wears her emotions on her face during Andy Murray's games... but i'm sure they wouldn't judge her the same way if she were a man and father....

maybe she should be washing his kit or making his dinner (and doing the dishes) like those bloody Olympics Proctor and Gamble ads Angry

She seems so joyless. I think people struggle to understand how someone can watch their child do something incredible while maintaining an image of professional interest only. Most parents would be grinning like loons.

I don't think it's anything to do with her being a woman.

It irritates the crap out of me. Someone on another thread was calling her 'hatchet faced' or some such.
She should be at home making cookies or fretting about whether her outfit looks nice on tv....
