Forgiving of Abusive Men
Why is it that men like Tiger Woods and Ben Roethlisberger are almost immediately forgiven after abusing their wives or other young women but women such as Left Eye from the musical group TLC will always be regarded as a crazy woman? I just find it odd how women have grudges held against them by the public and the media much longer than male icons do.

This is a very interesting point. Even with the whole Chris Brown Rhianna abuse, I know myself as a women in this society still enjoy listening to Chris Brown's music and I do not hold his actions against him. Women see being tough and taking charge or control a lot of times as sexy or attractive because that is what we have been socially taught, so it is only natural for us to forgive these men for acting upon what we as a society believe men should be.
