The Tiger Woods drama is obviously all the media can talk about lately. From Rachel Uchitel to Cori Rist, most everyone in America knows their names. In an article on
Examiner.com, they say this about Jaimee Grubbs, the Vegas cocktail waitress: "(she had) apparently had at least two other men involved in her life at some point."
Why is that an article-worthy principle? Did they expect that she had just waited her entire life to be the mistress of a famous golfer?
Especially since she had been on VH1's
Tool Academy with then-boyfriend, Shawn Southern, she was obviously not celibate. And she was obviously not the only woman in his life, so why should she be expected to only ever be with him? The Examiner also captions her picture with the statement "Jaimee Grubbs has a complicated history." I'm not sure I'd consider dating a tool or sending naughty pictures to a boyfriend "complicated," I'm pretty sure that's inherent in the Woods situation.
What do you think? Is it important for the media to note that Woods wasn't the only man in these women's lives, or are they just grasping at straws to keep it in the headlines? Are you sick of hearing about these ten women yet? (
Gawker has a running list if you've lost count!) Is it that big of a deal that we date other people before a scandal breaks?

I'm sick of hearing about this when more important shit is going on in the world.
I'm sick of the slut-shaming route the media was obviously going to take with these women (because if you aren't dragging a woman's reputation through the mud, then what's the point, right media?)
I'm sick of sex scandals being such a big deal. Unless they somehow violate laws or are unethical in some LEGAL way, it's no one's business, but the parties involved. [/rant]
ugh.. who cares. its all so overrated. how come people dont get noted for good things? they have to have sex scandals to get into the media. shows what our country is coming to.
@salvatruca_stalking_havok13@xanga - I agree, could not say it better. I hate how most of xanga featured posts are over populated with unnecessary bullshit.
I'm so tired of seeing/hearing it. I was watching SNL and that's all they talked about. So what he had an affair? Ohmygawd he's human!!! WOW! He's not Jesus?!?
Just like every other person on this planet he has the capability to make colossal mistakes. I think everyone needs to get off it and focus on some real news.
HA! JAIMEE GRUBS IS A FAME WHORE! SHIT SHE WAS ON TOOL ACADEMY FOR GOD'S SAKES!
EVERYONE ACTS LIKE TIGER WOODS IS THE ONLY CLEAN CUT CELEBRITY THAT EVER CHEATED ON HIS WIFE... SHIT... WHO CARES! PEOPLE MAKE MISTAKES SO DOES CELEBS! THEIR HUMAN TOO! THERE'S MORE IMPORTANT SHIT IN THE WORLD TO BE WORRYING ABOUT THEN TIGER WOODS CHEATING ON HIS WIFE BIG WHOOP TO THAT!
I COULD CARELESS WHAT IS GOING ON WITH TIGER WOODS... BUT GOOD LUCK TO HIM!
I personally couldn't care less what Tiger did. That is his problem and his wife's! They're dragging this like the Michael Jackson case...Really...Let it go!
I Dont Really Think We Need To Focus On This. How in The Hell Is A Blasian Cheating On His Wife news? He Hits Balls With Clubs When You Really Break it Down. he Doesn't DO Anything Important I Think It's Time We Move On. People Over Play Tragedies And Scandals To Make A Few Bucks And I Think Thats Sick. Sensationalism Is A Terrible Thing.
On An Unrelated Note What Is This Tool Academy Stuff?
@salvatruca_stalking_havok13@xanga - Agreed.
Who cares what Tiger did? It's his personal life. I am not his wife or else I would have cut off his balls, case closed.
CAN WE MOVE ON NOW? Thanks.

@salvatruca_stalking_havok13@xanga - ain't that the truth
None of this really matters. Its simple, time will pass and this will be thrown on the rubbish heap of history.
He did get around to a lot of mistresses. I'm jealous.
He's nothing but a whore. Who cares, isn't he in enough shame?! He should just head to Europe, and leave America be, we have too many problems to worry about Tiger Woods fucking sluts. Um, how about Iraq, rapists, and heroin being sold to underage kids? and the list goes on...........
@DJTHEFUNNY@xanga - Haha, he hits balls with clubs. I love that, so true... he isn't the president or a congressman, who really gives a shit.
The tool academy is a show where couples go on because they're boyfriends are dickheads, and they're still with them for some reason, anyway, the point is, that this show is suppose to turn them in to gentlemen...
I'm not surprised that they were promiscuous. these women will probably sleep with any rich and famous celebrity hoping to hit their big break and strike it rich. it is like sleeping with the boss to get promoted. one of the women actually shamelessly appeared on the extra tv show because they likely paid her to talk. they sleep with him so one day they might have worldwide fame and even if it is a shameful type of fame for being a mistress, they don't care, it is still fame since they could get money from interviews, book deals or star in some scandalous sex rehab show. if it was a mistake, it wouldn't be multiple affairs. he was a greedy tiger. he should've remained a bachelor like george clooney if he wants to play
If all boys and girls would simply grow up to be men and women I suppose the media would have much less to talk about. No sex scandals anywhere. Everyone would be monogamous or live entirely without sex.
@JessxMaxine@xanga - I hope you have the sense to avoid promiscuous pseudomen; even those best at acting/lying (but don't assume all men who show emotion are lying or acting).
@jasonwl@xanga - I never said I assumed that he was lying or acting. It's none of my business and I really just dgaf about it.

It isn't important in the slightest. Then again, I really don't think this entire issue ought to be important. The real reason that its such a shock and that its such a hot topic right now isn't truly just because Tiger Woods had ten affairs (that we know about), but rather instead that it was Tiger Woods that did it. He fooled a lot of people by looking and acting like a genuine nice guy. But, in the end he is just another celebrity with an affinity for cheating on his wife with pretty women.
I think that he made his bed, though, and now he has to lie in it. No pun intended.
But, I also think these women are all gold-diggers and fame-whores, attention seekers. So, really, I don't think they're that worthy of having anybody feel sorry for them, either. Whether they had a lot of boyfriends, just a few boyfriends, or no boyfriends before hooking up with Tiger Woods, they're still gold-diggers, fame-whores and attention-seekers now. And they're making money from it. And if they aren't, yet, they will be. Not women worthy of praise or of sympathy.
And Tiger Woods certainly isn't worthy of it, either.
