Sorana Cirstea has been criticized by tennis fans following the Romanian's call to endorse conventional human values and seemingly disregard LGBTQI+ rights in the process.The Romanian hasn't had much luck delivering good results this grasscourt season. Her sole win came at Birmingham, where she ousted Magdelena Frech.In her last competition Cirstea suffered an early exit, at the Viking International Eastbourne tournament. Despite dragging the battle to three sets, Cirstea succumbed to Ana Bogdan in the Round of 32 with a scoreline of 3-6, 6-2, 3-6.To add to her disappointing performances, the Romanian has now been condemned for making a post that fans believe is an attack on the LGBTQI+ community. Cirstea's social media post suggested people resort to their traditional instincts; that men remained 'masculine' and women, 'feminine.'One fan wasn't in favor of the interpretation offered by her story and presented this as a "legitimate" reason to hate her."Nah This is so disgusting, now legitimate reason to hate her. Whatever that means make children innocent again??? Rot in hell."DenizTheTennis@denizthetenisNah This is so disgusting, now legitimate reason to hate her.
