IS TIGER ADDICTED?

We've all seen a person addicted to something. I've witnessed people addicted to crack cocaine, alcohol, prescription drugs, and cigarettes. something that I've yet to witness is someone being addicted to sex. I have used the phrase "sex is addictive" over a million times, but I wouldn't pay for it nor will I ever not go to work because of it. Is it possible for a person to be addicted to sex? Maybe. The common person would be considered a cheater or sinner if caught cheating on a spouse but, when there are hundreds of millions of dollars to be considered then new terms are used. Tiger Woods got caught cheating on his wife and he is addicted to sex. NOT! Tiger, you've made a mistake as we all do and God forgives you. In my opinion, it's easier for Mrs. Tiger's friends and family to support her for working on her marriage if her husband has an addiction and not just being a cheater. Don't believe everything you hear, I doubt that Tiger stands to lose $300,000,000. She'll be wealthier if she stays that's what her lawyer told her. Looks like Tigers new name is Cheetah.

  1. Although I do know a sex addict (trust me; It's a real addiction), I believe that in this case he is just a person who got caught and needed an escape hatch. What's the easy way out? It wasn't me? The devil made me do it? Oh, I know! A sex addiction...this one gets the straight face from me :-|

  2. Ha! I really don't see what the big deal is about Tiger cheating. In my opinion, everyone cheats (men and women). Why is Tiger feet being held to the ground? Is it because he was deemed as the golden boy? He had a hard time getting dates in high school and college. What could we expect him to do now that women are just throwing themselves at him!?!

  3. I doubt if Tiger is addicted to sex. He's a man and men like sex. If you look at it Tiger has led a pretty sheltered life. Now that the one person who could reign him in is gone (his dad), he is just pretty much out here having to make his own decisions. I am sure that this would not be an issue for him if his dad were still alive. He has all of this freedom and definitely a lot of money and the very people who cry "its your thing do what you want to do" are now ranting and raving on him. I say that "he who is without any sin, should cast the first stone" Yep, I didn't think so. I don't condone what he did, but I am not going to crucify him either. Yes he made some bad decisions, but haven't we all. Haven't we all made a decision to do something that somehow snowballed into something out of our control. Please don't believe that no one knew about his behavior, he is too big of a public figure not to have been spotted out doing something. Wake up people, there were people who knew and turned a blind eye. It only became a big deal once Elin made it public and the media had an open door to use it as a way to sell tabloids, magazines and ratings.

  4. Yes I do believe that there are all types of addiction. Unfortunately, I do not believe that Tiger has a sex addiction. I do believe that he took advantage of his status to get women because he was "as some say" not as lucky as a teenager. However, if that is the case I always aske the question: Why get married? If you want to fool around and have all the sex in the world with multiple people then by all means do it but do it SINGLE!. Yes I feel that Tiger is feeling the heat because just a couple of weeks before this scandal surfaced he was in an interview talking about how much he values family and his wife. Of well I don't feel sorry for him at all. DON'T DO THE CRIME IF YOU ARE NOT READY TO DO THE TIME is how I feel.

  5. I believe that there are people addicted to sex, just like drugs, gambling and alcohol. Tiger Woods, Michael Vick, Pete Rose, and former President Clinton the list goes on and on. All of these men have some sort of addiction. In my opinion anyone that has an addiction should be able to get help, however they should still be held responsible for what they do and have done. These high profile men are role models to our children and should be held accountable for their actions.
