All eyes ON the Tiger.


Adultery. It's probably the oldest form of "sin" i can think of. We've all been a victim of it (and if you haven't you will be). We've probably all participated in it. Does that make it right? Of course not. I personally think it's the WORST thing one could ever do in a relationship. And seeing how our generation is being raised with less and less moral values these days, i think everyone should get used to it and learn how to deal with it in advance. In my mind about 99.9 % of men cheat. And about 90 % of women cheat. It's all about how good you are at it. If you think your man or your woman hasn't cheated on you before, then keep thinking that. They're doing a really good job at hiding their dirt.

I feel for Elin Woods. I really do. I couldn't imagine being married to a billionaire and having their kids to find out they've been having affairs with 9 + women over the last 2-3 years. And then for the WORLD to know probably makes it even worst. You know when your cheated on its a secret you want to take to your grave. Who wants all the side eyes and the whispers behind their back for the choice of staying with your significant other after you've broadcast-ed to the world of their cheating ways. "She's stupid behind him." or "She's in denial".

But for something so common as adultery...why is Tiger being penalized so harshly? That is what i cannot understand. Didn't Shaq's wife just file for divorce AGAIN because of his adultery? That barely made the news. Tiger is plastered all over Entertainment tonight and all his mistresses are being interviewed and what not. It's amazing.

Now i understand that when your a celebrity the magnifying glass is on you. Your made an example of EVERYTHING. But when Halle's husband cheated on her it didn't make headlines. Shaq hasn't been a trending topic on twitter for the last 2 weeks. So what makes Tiger's situation so different from theirs?

I hate to throw the race card around. I really do. I think it's what uneducated lazy people do to find an excuse for their short-comings. But something tells me if Tiger's wife were black, this situation wouldn't be a situation at all.
