Can someone explain this to me...I'm confused!

Are you referring to movement across the cell membrane? Molecular oxygen (O2) can diffuse across the membrane not b/c its hydrophobic but b/c its very small and has a large pressure driving it. I'm not sure that an oxygen atom by itself can exist. Others please confirm this.
