Sex Appeal on the Course

Okay I will start with stating clearly I am so NOT a prude but there are times that I do not need sex thrown at me and the golf course is one of those.  Cart girls who bring much needed cold drinks and ice on those super hot Texas summer days on the course are god-sends, but I have to just laugh at loud when the guys flirt soo hard with these young ladies.  Now the ladies are smart and play up the flirting because it usually leads to great tips for them.  But some of the guys I have played with really are just hysterical as they try to impress the cart girl, especially if there is more than a 30 year age gap!  This must be why there are so many Cialas and Viagra commercials during televised golf events!! LOL 

I do get a little cranky when I play a charity tournament and the sponsors use scantily clad young lady around the golf course.  The idea is to play up to the men in the tournament who are the majority and help pry open their wallets to raise more money.  Again it can be funny when the hot young lady struts up to the guy and asks him if he wants to buy a mulligan...even more funny if she doesn't know what a mulligan is.  But I have had an instance or two when I was with a guy friend in the cart and the young lady walked right up to my guy and openly flirted with him!! That was just insulting as if I was not even sitting there, but hey usually gave me incentive to hit a great shot. 

Now one of the funniest episodes I have had recently on the course was when I was playing with a great guy friend who has a real eye for the ladies.  He was very excited when we were placed together with two young ladies one day to play a round; he could not wait to flirt with them.  On the first hole or two he did his best to impress them (and he is a pretty hot guy I admit) but they just did not seem to respond which perplexed him.  I had been watching all of this and observing the ladies' behavior; they had no problem talking with me but were hesitant around him.  On the second hole, however, it became clear what was happening and I just broke into a HUGE smile.  The two ladies had absolutely NO interest in my male friend (or any male really for that matter) and were totally into each other.  Fine by me, I'm pretty liberal and just believe folks should be with who makes them happy.  My guy friend though was soooo disappointed and just did not enjoy the round as much as he would have otherwise; he had been looking foward to being the only guy with a group of 3 hot ladies!  I must admit I found this TOTALLY hilarious!

I would like to see a cart guy once in a while -- all beefed up with great muscles and offering me a cold drink :)  Of course I would probably just think I was hallucinating in the heat!
