    You are wrong at the first and foremost. ;)

    I am rather surprised the over-reactions in US, probably the US media only, regarding Tiger Woods' love affairs.

    The humor here is awesome!

    On a serious note, though, I have never felt comfortable with prying into the private lives of athletes, politicians, celebrities, etc. It all strikes me as an American (US) sickness/depravity fueled by a profit-driven media.

    Private lives are their business, not mine. I only care about them doing their job.

    no most men in asian cultures just go to whores. it eliminates the psycho e-mails and late night calls. And once you're done with the girl you're done. I dont know why all these athletes start relationships.

    That's one thing that is universal among all rich men, whether, they are old-senile, young-dumb, asian, white, black, Muslim, atheist, crippled, blind, lazy, greedy, nice, douchebag-like, old money, new money, inflicted with a sex addiction, from the Bayou, from the cardboard box, or even bi or gay. If you have money, you will see all sorts of strange women appear in your life.

    Has anyone ever heard of a rich man not being approached or at least solicited by a woman he has never met?

    The money does the talking and game playing for a man. If guy has game and money, then that is just a + + situation.

    Kobe did worse than Tiger allegedly and yet he is still worshipped as an athlete. I think we need to step back and leave the private lives of athletes and public figures alone.

    The exception would be the hypocritical politicians and the political party of these politicians who claim to embody "family values" and yet they turn out to be the worst womanizers in the world.

    It would, of course, be easy to condemn the transgressions of Tiger, and Yao, if he did the same, but how many of us have not sinned ourselves? It might not be the same sin but, come on, who is the pure saint among us?

    This is a ridiculous stereotype. I am a Chinese from Hong Kong and I see people cheat on their wives on the time.

    Good one. Well Lauren Jackson is pretty for a woman who's 6 feet 5. And she's had a crush on Yao for the longest time. Could be possible, but i doubt it. Yao's just too trustworthy to cheat on his wife.

    Very well spoken! I personally don't care about politicians sex lives because it has nothing to do with their job. "Family values" is an empty, vacuous phrase that they must espouse to get elected.

    Now if you had said hypocritical religious icons, well, I could get on board with that.

    LOL

    It appears that 7 foot 6 inch NBA star Yao Ming is dating 5 foot 2 inch actress Nia Long.


    Yao Ming, who came to this country 4 years ago, is apparently a huge fan of hip hop and 1980s television shows. As the story goes, Yao first noticed Nia while watching the Fresh Prince Of Bel Aire in his native China. Since arriving in the NBA, he's repeatedly tried to get the lovely actress to go out on a date with him. And last month Nia finally said yes.


    A friend of Nia's tells MediaTakeOut.com that the two have already been on a few dates and so far the sparks are flying.


    Before dating Nia, Yao was involved with Ye Li - a player on China's national woman's basketball team

    What if Yao pulled a Shaq? Instead of sleeping with women on the street, he was chasing other player's wives and baby mommas. What if it came out that he slept with Arena's fiancee and Damien Wilken's baby momma, would you still think of him the same?

    Even if Yao did, he would be caught in an instant. His height wouldn't help him at all if he tried...

    He said Yao's culture doesn't tolerate it, not "nobody in his culture does it".
