Tiger Woods May Not Claim to be Black but He Sure Does Enjoy the Perks!!!

Back in 1997, a writer from GQ magazine quoted what they say is the REAL Tiger Woods in an interview. Even though Tiger doesn’t associate himself with being black, he doesn’t shy away from the perks that come with it and clearly voiced it during his interview, for example let’s say his half black ___________.

Pop the Hood for Tiger’s Humor…

The interview was largely a series of profane quips by Tiger, such as “What I can’t figure out is why so many good-looking women hang around baseball and basketball. Is it because, you know, people always say that, like, black guys have big d*cks?”

At another moment, during a photo shoot where four women attended to his every need and flirted with him as he flirted back, he told a joke: He rubbed the tips of his shoes together and then asked the women, “What’s this?” They were stumped. “It’s a black guy taking off his condom.”

SMH@ It’s a black guy taking off his condom.

  • drenk

    …he’s also 1/2 asian…

  • KeepNit2Real

    the government still claims him as Black so give him a break…lol

  • lovelyday

    FIRST! YOU BLACK AND YOU SHOULD BE PROUD! J/k BUT SERIOUSLY DUDE BE PROUD OF ALL YOUR ENTIRE SELF!

  • Daywalker(THE DAYDREAM!!!)

    Tiger Woods always up to no good!!!! LOL!!

  • noladebby

    Ewwww….put your shirt back on please. Gross little nappies around the belly button.

  • VanGogh

    Self-hatred is of suspect. He may not think he is black but he is being treated like a black man.Why do they not believe him?

  • Its a myth

    He’s corny!!!!

  • LouLou22

    Many biracials and multiracials do that. They claim everything in the book,but they claim black when its beneficial to them,such as scholarships,recognition,memberships,etc.
    Soledad Obrien and her Black in America and then Latino in America. She gained alot of awards,recognition,and love from both communities,even though she is also 1/2 Irish. I wonder will she do an Irish in America piece?

  • http://www.lusherotic.com lusherotic.com

    I blame his father Earl Woods…..He clearly taught Tiger it was not okay to be a black man in America

  • Gimmeabreak 78

    @LouLou22

    Actually, Soledad’s dad is Australian, not Irish.

  • tia

    australian is not a ethnicity. it’s like saying you’re american, that could be anything, black, white, native.

  • Matix b

    Well I am bi-racial (actually tri-racial but I really don’t count the 1/4 native in my blood)and I have never understood why certain mixed people do not claim both or all sides. I do consider myself black but I can’t deny my white side either. I consider myself “black” not only because I will never look “white” but because I identify myself with black people and culture. It really is up to the parents to talk to their mixed race children and let them know it is ok to accept both sides and not be afraid to call yourself black or whatever you choose. In my opinion Tiger was never black because he never identifies as black, clearly he is jealous of his black “brothers” thus his penchant for off colour (no pun intended) jokes.

    P.S. Please don’t post that I spelled “colour” wrong, that is how you spell it in Canada!

  • http://BitchareYOUForREAL??? Doin’ BETTER thanYOU!!!!

    Tiger Woods can go straight to hell…He’s so confused, it’s just sad…

  • drenk

    well my mom was 3/4 octaroon and my dad was 1/2 aztec 1/2 black but i was raised by a chinese family….so i dunno where to go

  • Matix b

    @drenk your attempt at humor is mildly amusing!

  • Matix b

    and it’s OCTOROON by the way….

  • MEEMEA

    how old is tiger!! ewwww, i see moobs

  • T

    He is not black, so much as he is definitely non-white. Quit disrespecting his damn mother, you n!ggs.

  • DDub

    Being black is not an opinion. He can wish to be what he pleases–it doesn’t change the science.

  • chaka1

    Tiger is barely black.

  • Old Timer

    Tiger may not have BEEN a black or African American male.

    However, I can definitely say that Tiger is NOW a black man.

    Being a black man is a state of mind and a trial by fire.

    Being a black male celebrity is a very tenuous job as he’s finding out now.

  • biscutie

    ewwww @ his nips, they look like a cluster of raisinets!

  • drenk

    @ Matix b

    what if i said 1/16 quadroon and 1/2 maori 1/2 khoi san….any better? i guess its all in the delivery :/

  • Gmen

    he’s not black

  • Matix b

    @drenk Maybe. But you know all those race classifications are in place to divide us as race. So I really can’t laugh at that!

  • tony504forever…

    lol @ chaka. tiger is barely black? barely? lmao…he has all the nose and skin of a black man. what more do u need/ …check this out ppl. the woman u date doesnt make you any more/less black. just my opinion.

  • Old Timer

    Tiger did not want his racial idenity to be an issue with the golfing world. He didn’t want to be known as the first African American to win major golf championships.

    He wanted to be an “every man,” someone everyone could identify with. His image was perfectly vetted and controlled at all times. He didn’t do commericals for “ethnic products or services.”

    He was the “perfect” minority like i.e. Asians. You know the stereotype, they’re all smart and they all work 20 hours a day. They come to thise country with nothing and work themselves up to upper middle class status.

    I think the reason that Tiger’s receiving so much backlash is that many people feel duped because he proudly paraded such a clean-cut image to make millions of dollars, but Tiger wasn’t that person at all.

  • http://comcast g.d.c

    He is a racist againt his own race….

  • drenk

    @ Matix b

    yea but even if these terms didnt exist we’d find a way to seperate ourselves, bloods/crips, ms13/whoever they war with, east side/west side, hellz angels/pagans, we’re REALLY good at pointing out each others differences

  • Matix b

    @drenk you are right. I guess its human nature, or even evolution. Either way I can’t hate someone b/c their parents banged someone out of their race. Technically even “black” people who were born in Africa have dark skin and all the typical attributes of “blacks” still have European in the genes.

    Nobody is pure anything, trust! Sounds corny but we all the same on the inside except for MS13……they mixed with CRAZY

  • DaHonestTruth ~ Always Keepin it REAL

    Another black man who can’t think beyond his p e n i s. When will it end!

    And for the record so many women hang aorund athletes because they have MONEY, not because of their p e n i s e s. But why do I care about the black man simplifying himself down to being a good lay? He sure doesn’t care!!!

  • DaHonestTruth ~ Always Keepin it REAL

    SMH! Maybe a white woman thinks this is cute but as a sista and a member of the black race it is VERY offensive! Taking off his condom? SMH!!

  • Sophiaz

    Tony504together,

    Tiger actually looks Melanesian/Polynesian. He looks similar to the Vijay Singh, and many Polynesian people I have seen. Then again, those people have black African heritage.

    He’s actually 1/4 black American, anyway.

  • drenk

    @ Sophiaz

    i thought vijay singh’s parents were from india and he was just born in fiji

  • EVERYBODY HATES CHRIS

    HE HAS 2 BLACK BROTHERS AND A SISTER DOES HE CLAIM THEM @ ALL? DO THEY HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM?

  • RONNIE

    FK HIS WHITE / CHINESE AZZ!!!

  • deniro1974

    I claim everything I have in me. My mother was sicillian/italian and my father was italian/African and Filipino. I am not lying I am very proud of my heritage. I say Italian because I am not sure what to say. That’s where I was born anyway. Tuscany, Italy.

  • peaches

    U r what u look like. If it looks like a black man then it is a black man. It’s obvious he has some issues with his identity and personal life! I guess next he will be sayin “I AIN’T MARRIED!! REALLY I’M NOT”. He needs some serious help!!!!

  • http://deleted CriticXtreme

    Ha, ha MF not a funny job in your situation. You’re done and I hope that one day you see the truth.

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/sexy1234 uhh yeah ok.

    Yup- and what he’s talking about I get more white males asking me or talking about that then the black males. “so black men really have big —-”… See they put the stereotypes out there for you and then you accept it and let it go round. No, it’s a damn joke used against you.

  • DenialRiver

    *YAWN* Leave Tiger be.

    I see folks still holding onto that “1 drop rule” handed down by Jim Crow-era rednecks, huh?

    I’m Octoroon… I’m mulatto… I’m quadroon…
    All of that s*hit was brought about as a way of making “mixed breeds” feel better. So says the bigot, ‘even if we see you as black (and thus, second-class), you ain’t “as black” as the rest and still have someone else to look down on.’

    Funny that American blacks moreso than white supremacists enforce the “1 drop” rule with a vengeance…
    “Yo mama’s mama was black. That make you black!”

    Bulls*hit. It makes you black and whatever else is in your ethnic/racial makeup.

    Unfortunately, multi/bi-racials in large number are never going to call American blacks on the hypocrisy because since they don’t get the benefits of whiteness they don’t want to risk being ostracized from blacks. And even though the price to pay for acceptance is denying the rest of your makeup, they’re willing to pay the price.

    People need to grow a backbone and claim who they are and stop cowering from the Race Rangers (of any color). No one’s doing anyone any favors by buying into Jim Crow’ism.

  • Black_Orpheus(the original not the remake)

    I SOOOOOOOO hope this “cablinasian” takes a few thousand of the $1 Billion he is supposedly worth and hires a FIRST RATE therapist — because this is one sick puppy.

    His late dad (R.I.P.) probably should have been on that same couch before he died. If I brought a son to manhood with this kind of effed up head, I think I’d be READY to “check out”.

    Remember, this is NOT some dude who grew up on the street, never knowing his dad. Earl Woods was ever present, and apparently as equally confused as his kid.

    My daughter is half-brazilian, and has bolivian blood on her mom’s side, but she damn well respects the african blood in her as much as all the rest — and her brazilian cousins range in color from “Mariah Carey” to “Kelly Roland” (butterscotch to chocolate), but there is no damn confusion on her part as to the VALUE of them ALL — PRICELESS !!!!

  • Sp Easy !!!

    HE’S A MESS!

  • Sp Easy !!!

    LET HIM BE WHAT HE WANT’S TO BE… HIS BLK A** IS STILL N TROUBLE!!! (LOL)

  • Black generation X

    americans are PLAIN StupID tiger isnt black he is biracial but you stupid african americans will always follow what white people tell you or do and you CAN NOT ACt like a black man African americans will always be classified as last look at you monkeys the best generation died with MLK and Malcolm X. no wonder why everybody hates america.

  • scooby dubious

    Half of the stories on here are enough to make no one want to be black.

    And in Tiger’s defense, and defense of any other “sellout,” not everybody identifies with the “culture” — or pathology. I see Tiger in the tradition of light-skinned people distancing themselves from dark-skinned blacks. And honestly, who can blame them? I’d say Tiger’s classification has more to do with the perception of caste than with the paranoia about race.

    When we’re running around shooting our own kids and acting like idiots in every arena possible, I say good on Tiger if he doesn’t want our company.

  • Ann

    He’s an A*S*S*
    And for the record, that picture looks like a prison photo shoot.

  • JaNa’e

    to heck with his cablasian self. the main people he was attempting to imitate are the same people that have now abandoned him.

    such is karma

  • lbigg

    How would he know? Apparently he doesn’t use them.

  • chocolatesistah

    To Sophiaz,

    Earl Woods was just a regular Black man that claimed all these other ethnicities to distance himself from the Black race. This so called Cablasian BS he and Tiger claim doesn’t detract from the fact that they were and are Black men respectively, no matter what way you flip it!

  • Lee Lee

    He looks horrible!!! Body looks horrible,face looks horrible, personality is horrible!!!! He doesn’t have to be black!!! He can be asian!!! We have better black men! UGH!!!

  • Bey-nonsense

    Tiger looks ridiculous in this picture. What Tiger and his father failed to realize is no matter what you do, other races will feel the same way about you regardless. All that living in the burbs and calling yourself another race or avoiding race questions by saying “human race.” Fuzzy Zealor and the reporter on ESPN already let Tiger know what he is.

  • Makela

    Tiger Woods is a damn moron and a seriously confused cornball. I never cared for him and I certainly don’t now… nor do I purchase anything he’s selling. I really hope Elin takes his stupid a.s.s. to the cleaners, get it all Boo! Every damn dollar, the golf balls, all of it LMAO!

  • ncsweetie

    I would just like to say P.H.U.C.K. Tiger Woods! Twice or as many times for each of his hoes! I always hated this dude, but he can eat sh-ie-t and die 18 times all I care. He is not black that fool got a tan, no-bod-y cares about him in my neck of the woods! He’s getting what he deserves and I am counting on the day that white girl takes him for everything he is worth. Then we will see what he thinks he is…a damn swirl..product of going to far. wish that white girl killed him when she had the chance.

  • Black Man

    I am glad Tiger does not claim to be black. People like him only bring the good black men down.I see him the same way I see O J Simpson A confused looser. He is showing his true colors. Some people feel when they have money and power they are not accountable to boundaries as every one else. More money only makes you more of who you really are. It is time for black people to stop making excuses for stupid, and allow these men who deny our women and our community to continue to make fools of themselves the behavior usually goes hand and hand. I am glad he only sleeze around with white women because he does not deserve a black woman. He would only bring her grief and heartache. Thats what dogs do!

  • explain plz

    ok, i don’t get the shoes/condom supposed “joke”. can some1 explain what it means? how is it sposed 2b ‘funny’???

  • denia

    Good. Let him keep confirming he is not black. Whatever race he is let him lay on their shoulder and weep for being a disgusting cheating pig. We don’t want him anyway.
