Khloé Kardashian Is Being Called Out For Saying That Blaming Women When Men Cheat Is “Really Hurtful” Years After Publicly Blasting Jordyn Woods Over The Tristan Thompson Scandal
Speaking out about the subject of cheating in a new interview with Variety, Khloé Kardashian said that she finds it “really hurtful” to put the blame on a woman whose partner has cheated.
“If your significant other is doing something wrong, for the woman to be blamed, that’s always been really hurtful for me. I’ve never quite understood that instead of there being some sympathy,” she said.
“I’ve never quite understood that instead of there being some sympathy or like, ‘Wow, that must really suck to have to go through that.’ And not only go through it, but then go through it so publicly,” she continued.
“I don’t even care if people have sympathy. I just don’t understand why there’s so much finger-pointing — like it must be me. That’s a heavy thing to carry,” she added.
Khloé’s point about not blaming women and instead holding men accountable for their actions is extremely valid. However, many have taken to Twitter to criticize the comments in light of her infamous treatment of Jordyn Woods back in 2018 during the cheating scandal with Tristan.
BUZZFEED REPORTS:
If you need a quick refresher, Jordyn — who was Khloé’s sister Kylie Jenner’s best friend at the time — shared a kiss with Tristan at a house party. She maintained that he’d been the one to kiss her and denied that things had gone further between them.
Khloé was quick to place blame on Jordyn rather than Tristan, accusing her of “lying” and being the sole reason her family “broke up” in a harsh public tweet after Jordyn gave an interview about the incident.
“Why are you lying @jordynwoods ?? If you’re going to try and save yourself by going public, INSTEAD OF CALLING ME PRIVATELY TO APOLOGIZE FIRST, at least be HONEST about your story. BTW, You ARE the reason my family broke up!” Khloé tweeted at Jordyn in March 2019.
And things really erupted in Season 16 of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, which aired months later. In it, Khloé and her sisters Kim and Kourtney — who were all in their 30s at the time — made a huge point of lambasting Jordyn, who was 21.
In one episode filmed in the days after the news broke, Khloé can be seen sitting around with her sisters and best friend Malika during a girls’ getaway in Palm Springs while FaceTiming TV personality and business mogul Kimora Lee Simmons for advice on the situation.
Kimora says: “I just think, you guys, cannot let people take advantage of you like this… That’s your baby daddy, whether you’re with him or not. You cannot allow this kind of disrespect.” Khloé responds, “F*ck these h*es.”
The sisters then FaceTime their mom, Kris Jenner, to let her know that they were planning on publicly dragging Jordyn — essentially, they wanted her to be scared of them.
“We have built-up, pent-up frustration,” Kim tells Kris. “Kimora Lee was like, ‘You guys look weak as fuck. You need to get the world scared of you and you need to set the tone.’”
Khloé adds, “To f*cking Kylie’s fucking best friend who’s sat on a gold f*cking shitting throne. Like, this shit is so f*cking whack that these f*cking b*tches think they can go ahead and f*ck our men.”
And the Good American founder went on to face another huge wave of criticism after calling Jordyn a “fat fucking asshole.” Fans were especially confused at the derogatory comment in light of Khloé’s own struggles with insecurity and body image, which she’s been open about for years.
At the time, while fans initially understood Khloé’s hurt in having been betrayed by a close family friend, her behavior was largely criticized online. Numerous users expressed their disappointment in her for solely blaming Jordyn and not Tristan, with the topic remaining a huge talking point on the internet to this day.
Perhaps in light of all the backlash, Khloé ended up walking back her comments about Jordyn, instead tweeting that the cheating was “Tristan’s fault.” She wrote: “What’s been harder & more painful is being hurt by someone so close to me. Someone whom I love & treat like a little sister. But Jordyn is not to be blamed for the breakup of my family. This was Tristan’s fault.”
And with all this in mind, fans are now questioning Khloé’s stance about blaming women for the actions of unfaithful men, arguing that she did not have the same take throughout the scandal with Jordyn and Tristan.
Quoting Khloé’s comments directly, one fan wrote, “ma’am did you not drag Jordyn Woods,” before adding, “The Hypocrisy.”

Echoing a similar thought, one person tweeted: “did khloe and her sisters not blame jordyn woods for something khloe’s ‘significant other’ did ???? the hypocrisy.”
One thing for certain though. Khloe runs a bag up EVERY TIME a n*nja cheats.. So although the cheating is embarrassing for a minute, Khloe’s pimp hand as a boss chick is strong. So don’t sleep on Sis.
Elsewhere in the interview, Khloé revealed that Tristan’s recent paternity scandal will be addressed in her family’s upcoming Hulu show, The Kardashians.
Here is the thing about cheating men. Yes, the woman does get blamed. You get blamed for continuing to be the woman who chooses men who cheat on you.
Even men laugh at women who get cheated on. You think men would understand, but they don’t. In a man’s eyes when a man cheats on a woman, the woman is a pretty bad judge of character.
For Khloe to be in the position she is with the level of wealth that she has, she is not the greatest at choosing men. She faires no better with men than the girl who works the counter of McDonalds. Khloe can afford healing and a relationship coach.
Some would say Khloe’s ails is because she continues to choose men in the spotlight, specifically athletes. Kim on the other hand chose Kanye West, and as crazy as you may want to call him, he worships the ground Kim walks on and always has.
The thing about most men is they really don’t get that much attention until they are with a popular or beautiful woman. Once that attention starts to come at them, they can’t handle it. They relish in it and decide to have fun. They care more about their carnal desires than their woman being respected. They don’t care if the woman they claim to love comes out looking like a fool.
P.S. The key isn’t for women to be afraid of you. It’s for your man to be afraid of cheating on you for fear of losing you. Men aren’t afraid to lose Khloe…. At least not the ones she chooses. I bet Steve Harvey is too afraid to lose Marjorie.
