It's mostly just kind of like.. not really anyone's business to care too much about.
I agree! But unfortunately it doesn’t work that way. Once you are celebrity, you become a target. In good times, you are a hero. In bad times, like Woods had gone through, you are nothing and worse. That’s how most people react, no matter what. I’m Woods’s fan as wel and if he really comes back and starts winning tournaments, it will be one of the best comebacks in history of sport.
If Brooks Koepka's parents didn't have sex one night in the late 80s, then there exists no person who would have beaten Tiger's score...
lol I alway say “if fish lived in our asses, they wouldn’t need any lakes”
Ya, I mean to me there's a difference between obsessing over celebs when they do things that are of the public's concern vs their private life. Like if he was having sex with underage girls or something like that, it's the public's interest.
But it shouldn't be anybody's business what the inner workings of his marriage are. And technically that's all the issue is. Having sex with the various ladies isn't itself problematic -- it's his marriage commitment that people are concerned about.
It's probably not too likely, but it's a possibility that they have an open marriage and are allowed to be sexually loose. Or it can even be like an unspoken understanding, that he does that kind of thing. So technically we're butting in to what their personal arrangement is, if there's any reason to be outraged.
So ya, it's like as a celeb you expect to be hyperfocused on. But I think there's a difference between personal life vs what's actually of public concern.
And people would recognize that line if, like, it had to do with criticizing their kids. They'd be like "oh, we leave their private life out of it, we shouldn't be reporting on that". But then with this (which is technically in the realm of what their agreement and marriage situation is, and totally private), people don't make that cutoff and instead treat it like public concern.
People create this monster in their minds. You see, he became a cheater in their minds. He is not their hero anymore. He hurt his innocent wife and that’s whom people mostly connect with, whether it’s their concern or not. I’ve seen it so many times before. It usually has a huge psychological impact on people like Tiger Woods. Sometimes they even commit suicide or try to.
That's an interesting and good point.
For better or worse, celebrities can grow to kind of feed off of the love for them. And then if it suddenly turns (perhaps in a deliberate, coordinated way to create headlines), that can have a big psychological effect on them.
Yeah... People are funny.
In almost all instances like this one, the other party suddenly becomes the innocent victim.
Guess there's a reason many don't follow public perceptions (the smart ones don't ignore it either)
