She makes a good point.
Serena Williams is no stranger to controversy, and has caused a stir yet again with a jaw-dropping indictment of the Steubenville rape victim whose story transfixed the nation.
In a Rolling Stone story which Deadspin posted on Tuesday, the world's No. 1 tennis player commented on the Steubenville rape case after seeing a news story about it.
"Do you think it was fair, what they got? They did something stupid, but I don't know. I'm not blaming the girl, but if you're a 16-year-old and you're drunk like that, your parents should teach you—don't take drinks from other people," she told the magazine.
"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."
