Tiger Woods - I don't think what happened to him is necessarily a bad thing - for society and more [View All]

[Sarah Ibarruri]

Here's what I think:

So Tiger Woods is not the "nice" guy we thought. So he's a philanderer, and not even a one-time philanderer, but a HUGE philanderer, cheating on his wife with multiple mistresses for years. Big deal. He's not the only male on the planet whose penis is on fire and feels he simply has to be shtooping every plasticized, collagen-filled, implant-imbedded female he encounters. In the course of life, we've seen ordinary people get caught cheating. It's not nice, but it's real life. So he's just being one of those guys who see a woman and think only of one thing.

Unfortunately, fame sometimes allows a celebrity to build a false image of himself to the public, and that's what happened with Tiger Woods. We held him up to the image he built, that of someone who would never commit adultery. Now that image is shattered, and I think there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. I think false images are bad, awful, and are best shattered. That way we stop adoring falsehoods. That's why I love it every time a "family values" Republican gets caught with his pants down. It gives those Republicans who truly believe in these people, a dose of reality.

As for Tiger Woods, his privacy is history. He will never have privacy again. If he chooses to satisfy his sex drive he'll have to do amazing things to accomplish it, as the media will be on his tail. Is that bad? Not at all. For his wife, it's excellent! It might keep him nice. For his kids, it's excellent, their dad will not be getting some sort of virus or risking their secure family life. For him? Well, it might not feel so nice to him if he's obsessed with cheating.

THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. — Tiger Woods said he let his family down with “transgressions” he regrets “with all of my heart,” and that he will deal with his personal life behind closed doors.

His statement Wednesday follows a cover story in Us Weekly magazine that reports a Los Angeles cocktail waitress claims she had a 31-month affair with the world’s No. 1 golfer.
