Exactly!!
For those not offended, please say, out loud, what Tiger intended by giving that guy a tampon?
I was completely unoffended by this incident. He gave Thomas the tampon after he outdrove Thomas (he is 18 years older than Thomas). Was it crass and frankly stupid, yes, but I’m not offended. Men and women drive off of different tees becuase of the difference in strength and the distance they get off the tee, so that’s why he was doing “you drive like a girl” schtick.
As a woman I wasn’t offended either. Perhaps because I play golf so realize women can’t hit the ball as far as men can. There are different starting points where you drive the ball at the start of each hole. The ladies’ tees are moved closer to the hole from where men tee off.
Are you honestly believing that ALL men - ALL- hit the ball further than any single female out there? Please tell me you don't believe that!
And if you do believe that and think that ALL women are inferior to men (in strength, size, etc.) then please explain why a tampon is the signal for being a woman. He could have motioned him to the women tee spot. He could have handed him a card with a message on it. Why a tampon?
Yes - in professional golf. The longest hitting woman on tour averages 271.75 yards. That would rank 213 on the men's tour. So yes, men hit it further and on a professional level women are inferior.
Actually only 213 out of 150 million hit it farther.

No. I don't really GAF about Tiger Woods. I wd just tell my DD Tiger isn't really someone to look up to, not to take his words to heart, that men like him probably wouldn't make good partner material and that her life can rock regardless of what Tiger does.

Came here to say this. It’s ridiculous. Save the offense for the big, important stuff.

I’m not the PP but you are taking this way too seriously. In the context of professional golfers, yes women and men play from different tees because men outdrive the women. It is not some affront to women everywhere to acknowledge that. Sure, he could have motioned to the women’s tees instead, but instead he handed him a tampon, whatever. Let’s be real you would have been offended by him motioning to the women’s tees too.

Some of you need to examine why it’s so important for you to be REALLY upset about a stupid inside joke between golfers.
It’s a micro aggression. One of millions that women experience in their lives. Sometimes people get tired of it.
Yeah I’m a woman and I have a lot more immediate and meaningful things to be concerned with in my life than the “micro aggression” of two dudes joking around. I think a lot of you need some perspective if this is the kind of thing that sends you into a tailspin.
I'm not sure how you define tailspin, commenting on someone's poor, sexist behavior hardly equals a tailspin. I have a daughter and it matters.

Keep being the cool girl but he's disgusting and it's an insulting, gross attempt at humour. He's just hammering away at the nails in his coffin.
Honestly, if my take means I’m “the cool girl,” then fine, I’ll be the cool girl. Although I think it’s more about just having a healthier perspective and not taking myself and everything else so d@mn seriously. I’d rather laugh at a crude joke than hang around with some of you joyless, judgmental scolds.
You don't need to laugh to get along, you know? Try it.
Hope you don’t have daughters.
