I am not offended because he is an offensive lowlife scumbag with poor breeding. His behavior tracks with his character, personality and upbringing. So disgusting scumbag is acting like scumbag and I am supposed to be wasting my precious energy? No exposure needed. He is the Trump of golf.

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.

What bs. What he did was disgusting and because he's a celebrity it is even worse. Keep up the cool girl act. The rest of us are fed up with you. People like you look the other way or minimize things when people do terrible things. The world has enough of your type.

It’s not that “I’m used to it. It’s that it seriously doesn’t bother me, at all



That’s literally the definition of internalized misogyny


Well that makes it very easy and convenient for you to dismiss someone’s opinion. If they don’t agree with you, then they have fallen under the trap of misogyny!


I’m not dismissing her opinion that is her opinion. But the reason for her opinion is because she was socialized have that opinion. If it doesn’t come from a place of intellect, it comes from a place of socialization.


So is the attitude that women are inferior and it’s an insult to be a women, play like a woman, run like a girl, etc

A menstruating girl/woman spends 3 months a year on average being on her period. That doesn’t include if she also experiences ovulation cramps or other symptoms (if she does, that could make it up to 6 months a year). EVERY YEAR she has her period, so about 35 years. A YEAR. Dealing with cramps, sore breast, headaches/migraines, fatigue, bleeding throughs, etc. A YEAR. And don’t get me started on being pregnant, giving birth, or going through menopause.

But society claims women are the weaker se#. GMAFB. The term “man cold” sums it up right there.

People I work with stole my credit card and charged an item on Amazon, had it delivered to my house. The item was something you would give as a gag gift at a bachelor party. I am a woman. I didn't find it funny.

Like racism, fascism, sexism and misogyny. We know you'd like us all to look away when you show yourself but we're all fed up with you treating these things like nothing.

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.

Look Tiger Woods has already shown us who he is. This is not surprising and completely on brand for him. I’m not outraged because I already know what kind of person he is.

I’m offended by prop comedy.
Ugh… it’s the worst.
He had to go get someone to get him a tampon, and the make sure to have it ready to go for his big joke.
…. That’s just sad.

Technically it's offensive, but I admit, I laughed anyway. I'm a feminist but don't feel like fighting every little battle. This is a small one.

This. He's a s#iTTy human being overall, so this is pretty in line with his usual behavior. I still find it offensive. You'd hope someone that miraculously survived a horrific car accident and his wife's golf club might have a little perspective. Hopefully at some point his luck will run out.
