Why are we acting like GOD is all over marriage – IF that was the case King David (biblical here) would not have sent one of his best generals off to DIE in war – so he (David) could do his wife…Solomon had thousands of wives…Abraham had a wife (Sarah – old) and a girl on the side ( Haggar -younger)…part of the reason why we have so much strife between certain religions…This is all about personal accountability – period!

Elegantly put, you sir are a scholar and gentleman. The only thing I can see that Shaq did wrong was sleep with another man's wife. Now if Shaq was involved with her before Gilbert and taking care of her then that was actually Shaq's wife from the gate. If more African American men and women actually went and found the true definition of adultery according to the bible in the Hebrew english concordance we would have a better blueprint which to formulate statutes for behavior. So called African American women have always outnumbered the men greatly. ALL AA male that aren't gay have or desire more than one women. As you mentioned these same women that talk all this one women one man crap are the same ones that understand fully the concept of sharing the "right" man. LOL

Let me clarify I don’t condone what shaq did, it was wrong on so many levels. What I am saying is that this monogamous thing isn’t working for us as a people first and as a society on a whole. Its has never worked. Y’all talk a good game, I find funny that if you ask a women if she would consent to being in polygamous relationship she would say hell naw. But that same woman would creep with a married man on the low. We need to stop lying to our self and engage in constructive dialogue about solutions to the problem. Women, there are not enough men to go around tell me how can you avoid sharing your man if you are lucky enough to have one. Oh well you could go the the alternate route. Oops a lot of you already have.hum I wonder why.

I am also African American. DNA has nothing to do with being whorish, but everything to do with ignorance and stupidity. Please do not make the Black Race look bad with your dumbness. I must add that I am glad that she is a black woman that will be walking away with the big bucks.

I will atempt to respond to my comment about mutiple partners being part of our dna. Every thought or action that the mind conceive or perceive, produces a unique biochemical response that is to be interpreted and processed by brain(neurological sytem) for us to experience the physical world. Every unique biochemical repsonse is recorded in our dna ( the process in a nutshell is called evolution), you are truly your ancestors. I wasn’t trying to justify shaqs actions but trying to shed light on emotion( energy+motive)behind action. The more successful the man(the ability to take care of woman and children) the more woman are attracted too that man. To take it further the energy that is needed to be successful on that level is the same sexual energy that makes one attractive. It is a fact that most highly successful men have a high sex drive. And in that lies the dilema.

SOME OF THESE COMMENTS ARE INCREDIBLY DISHEARTENING! 1ST OF ALL MR.S O'NEAL WAS ALLEGEDLY CHEATING WITH HER TRAINER A WHILE BACK AND SHAQ FILED FOR DIVORCE. 2ND THANK YOU BLACK MAN WHO DECIDED FOR THE WHOLE BLACK RACE THAT CHEATING WAS IN OUR DNA. I WAS APART OF THE NBA WORLD FOR 2 YEARS AND I HAD NO CLUE WHO MY BIG HEADED ASS EX WAS WHEN I MET HIM SO I HAD NO IDEA HOW DEEP HIS POCKETS WERE. AND TRUST ME I WASN'T THAT IMPRESSED TO BE AROUND THESE PEOPLE BECAUSE MOST OF THEM ARE EGOTISTICAL ASSHOLES WITH THE BLIND WIVES TO MATCH. YES MOST OF THOSE WOMEN DIDN'T CARE WHAT THEY DID BECAUSETHEY HAD MEN ON THE SIDE TOO, AS LONG AS IT DIDN'T GET PUT IN THE STREET IT WAS GOOD. NOT THE LIFE FOR ME. I WILL NOT TAKE DISRESPECT. MOST OF THE WOMEN THAT MET THEIR HUSBANDS AFTER THEY WERE ALREADY IN THE NBA ARE IN IT FOR THE MONEY. TRUST ME IT IS THE TOPIC AT THE NBA WIVES CLUB EVENTS HONEY TRUST THAT

All i have to say, Don't just be a man when it's fun. take care of your family and do the right thing, this type of behavior show young black men and your kids that it's alright to cheat . Your suppose to be a possative role model. act like it and stop messing up your family's life over a peace of a– it's not worth it for the 7 years of marriage. once a cheater always a cheater you will do the same thing to the bucket-head your with now. peace out Shaq O'cheat

Television and the government used to encourage us with shows life "Family Matters" "Growing Pains" "Who's the Boss" "Happy Days" etc… They modeled through televisions strong families. If you watch tv today….its about selfishness and pleasing oneself and individualism. Shows like sex in city, desperate housewives, nip tuck, two an half men etc. This is where we as the american people have lost something great. This is where our nation is heading. Is regressing morally, not progressing. We can't fix the everyone else, but we can start by fixing ourselves and creating strong families again that are solid with moral foundations based on truth, not selfish truth. If you agree with me give me a shout out on this chat. I would appreciate it.

In all we do we have a choice. There's always a choice. We blame others for our bad actions. We dont take responsibility anymore. We become cowardly in way. Decisions is an ability we have been given by God to use to please Him or ourselves. Yes we should think about our children….in doing that we are being unselfish. Its a decision! Overall, if we make the mistake we have to live with it and so does everyone and unfortunately theres too many mistakes going on which tells me and everyone theres a crack in the foundation of family life which we as americans have lost over the past 20 years.

The system of having 1 spouse is flawless and was designed for success. Having the same mom and dad under one roof bearing children and creating generations of success is the blueprint for a prosperous future. Modeling solid family life for your children is key. Its what makes strong communities and strong cities and a strong nation overall. We on the other hand my african american male friend have an imperfect nature. We all have the ability to discipline ourselves or just allow our selfishness to rule over us and that my friend is where infedility,cheating and the worse of ourselves are revealed. We have all had the ugly show us up at times. It even scares us afterwards when we finally see what we are capable of.

when w started handing out bailout money, folks seemed to gravitate towards favre's retirement plans. fast forward to now, with the economy in the crapper and this whole h1n1 scar, it's refreshing to see that sports figures can provide such a delightful distraction in these times of crisis.

Igodeep…I'm sorry, but as I said earlier, it ain't a race thing, it's gender thing. If you're a male you want to…uh…put what you got into what a woman's got and put it into as many women as you can get it into. If you're a woman you want to put your hand into as many mens pockets as you can. Maybe African American males are more successful at it than other races, but it ain't for lack of trying!

I am a african american male, not trying to defend shaq. But it has never been part of our culture to be monogamous. We were forced to take on this christian belief system that they(europeans) abided by. That shit is in our dna to have more than one woman. The difference between then and now is we had to take responsibility of that other as a wife vs just geting together to fck like we do now. Now ask yourself if the marriage ayatem in its current form is not working why continue to stick with broken system??

I really can not believe that so many of you have criticized his wife's attractiveness. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and is only skin deep. Physical attributes are not what all of us fall in love with. I think it should be love from the heart. And, the guilt after you have cheated on someone you love is something you have to live with for the rest of your life. Marriage should be a lifetime commitment, unless there is abuse, manipulation or other unsavory behavior toward your mate.

I agree that religion should not be a part of this topic, but why does one need to be more responsible when children come into the picture? Why not be responsible ALL the time regardless if your a parent or not? Are you saying that people who don't have children can act irresponsibly? Are we not surrounded by youth all the time? It is how we carry ourselves & how we treat each other, among other things, that reflect on others especially children. You say it is "the basic need of every human bring to be loved and desired" and that is true, however, to say that "more attractive individuals will be at (a) higher risk …" is a reflection of how shallow our society really is.

What his father would think? You mean what would his mother think? Mothers are the ones whose hearts are broken when their sons hurt the family and act like fools. Sure they are proud of all their accomplishments, but Mothers care more about their sons being good fathers and loving husbands, keeping the family intact and being a good example. His Father will survive this. His Mother will carry the pain in her heart for a long time as she will see the pain he has caused her grandchildren in their most formable years. Where do these guys get off thinking they don't hurt anyone when they indulge in their own selfish ways?

My goodness…Ain't sayin' it's right what Shaq's s'posed to be doing but if he has (is), she's known about it for a long time, you can bet. The checkbook's a powerful thing and my guess is she could've walked away from him any time she wanted to. Walkin' away from those bucks though is the hard thing to do. That's what most important to women anyway. Dont' jump on me! go to:

Marriage? Used to be a covenant between a man and a women before God. Now it is portrayed as a social event before anyone who wants a free meal. How can you profess to be a part of something sacred created by GOD and leave him out? Celebrity or not, marriage is holy. Regardless of the situation, whether it's marriage, raising kids or handling your finances, remove GOD and you have lawlessness as seen everyday in your homes and on television. My prayer is that the world returns back to their first love.The love of Jesus Christ. Get connected.

Shaq has always been a Cheater…. He even was bold enough (or stupid enough) to rap (or sing…. if you can call it) about cheating. He performed his little rap publically in a Miami night club over a year and half ago!

People cheat when they think they can get away with it. Shaq obviously thought he would get away with it. Whether or not the woman was a perfect 10 or just an average house wife didn't really matter. If he wanted a perfect 10 and didnt care about getting caught, i'm certain he would get some of the hottest women in the country. Money can buy Hot Women without even having to pay them.

Nah, forget all that morality stuff.

Thing is the bitch he be cheating with is uglier than than his ugly wife…

That's whack.

We all live our lives fighting off one desire or another that is not deemed moral or correct. This basic flaw in our existence will never be corrected. As a matter of fact being alive would not be as exciting or to some not worth living without the basic premise of right and wrong. That said, if we love our children, our families, our spouses and the history we have created with them, then we must think twice, three times, even four times before making that critical mistake of cheating on our families. Because that is what we are doing, cheating on our families. Hurting our mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers and more importantly, our children.

who cares…shaqs a dousche, he burned out a long time ago. let him tweet his feelings to a random bunch of 13 year olds. dear shaq–you are not funny, or hip, or cool cause the media implies that you are. choke on user spirv's dick, then you both can call God.

Shaq has lousy taste in women. He really does…

That dude should be getting the hottest chicks around. Stupid hot, fresh young chicks. He's famous, gots lots of money and is an athlete..the world is his oyster…

Why he is bothering with these homely types I'll never know. Shaqs wife was BORING and plain and this Govan broad was just bleh…kinda ugly.

I could go to the mall or a local bar TONIGHT and find much hotter chicks with broke ass losers…

Shaq needs to cash in and leave these plain ass bitches behind him…
