It would be even funnier if this is a Tampax viral marketing campaign and we are all getting punked. This type of exposure is priceless.

Anyways, even if it was a prank, they never intended it to be a public spectacle. It was supposed to be a private moment, but not for a high speed camera taking multiple photos per second. Id feel differently if Tiger had turned a more public moment into a tampon spectacle - eg handed him a box of tampons during the award ceremony.

No race jokes, no sexuality jokes. Gender jokes are fine if it's about women, but not gender identity trans gender jokes!

Much of Tiger's life reflects arrested development and addictive behavior. For various reasons, people let him get away with it.

Very well put.

Yeah. What a loser. 15 majors, 80+ tournaments won, worth over a billion dollars but slide a dude a tampon and he is a real low-life. By the way, everyone should be made fun of. That is true DEI.

Everyone, OP is Not Like Other Girls! Stop acting like she is!

To answer your question, OP, no, there are undoubtedly many, many thousands, if not millions, of women who sighed and went on with their day upon learning of Tiger's juvenile behavior. Literally didn't give it another thought. But most of them are not looking for validation about how special that makes them. We realize that people have different experiences, different triggers, and different reactions. And we can recognize a behavior as sexist even if it didn't personally bother us.

He's a high profile athlete whose entire joke was that another player was so bad he was "playing like a woman". Although I personally DGAF what Tiger Woods does (he's a pathetic hot mess of a human) I can certainly see how his behavior would be disheartening to other women and especially young female athletes. I certainly wouldn't be going around looking for validation at my lack of a reaction.

I mean, doesn't he have a daughter? Imagine him trying to explain the joke to her. What a tool.

+1. There's also this "eww tampons" aspect to it that a lot of us encountered in high school or even worse which made life harder when you had your period. Having to hide your tampons or act like they're shameful is stupid and harmful to young girls.

Outrage? Not really. Extremely tired of "ew periods are gross" attitude the whole stunt shows? Yes.

Uh, periods are gross.

It means he is suffering with cramps, hormone swings and feeling a bit sensitive.
