golfing motivation.
Tumblr media
a/n: ok so this is a small blurb inspired by the videos of Matt golfing with the group the other night…. let’s just say girl was giggling and kicking her feet at how good he looked. Also I’m rusty at writing so be nice to me :) enjoy! (Also this is not edited-)
warnings; none… all fluff!
“Jesus Christ, Matt!” Colby said after Matt had hit the ball with his… unique style of swinging. Matt looked over at the group with a smile as he started to take his white jacket off, walking back over to the group as he set it down next to you. His green and yellow shirt now in view as he adjusted it to his body.
“It’s either really good or really bad!” Matt said as he gripped the club in his right hand as he placed it under the censor, allowing it to give him a new ball.
“Do it again, Matt.” Larry said as he brought his phone out and started to film the boy. Matt took his rings off before he looked at you, pointing his finger at you.
“If this is a good hit, you give me a kiss-“
“Bet!” You said as you leant back in your seat, watching the him as he placed the club on the left side of the ball. He sighed before swinging the club around in a circle, hitting the ball perfectly as it soared through the air, loosing sight of it quickly from how fair it went.
You got up with a sigh as you went up to him, it now being your turn, plus you had an award to give him. “I will be honest, I was praying on your downfall-“
“Oh shut up.” He said as he placed his hand on your cheek, placing his lips on yours. The kiss was quick and gentle, nothing more than a few seconds. But those few seconds got some cheers from the friends you were with.
“Oh Jesus, they’re kissing again Nick-“
“They always do that… you’re surprised?” Nick asked Chris as you laughed at the brothers as Matt flipped them off.
Taking the club from Matt, you stood on the green mat as a ball came out of the dispenser and you placed it in the middle. You had gone golfing with Matt and his family before while visiting in Boston, and had gone to top golf with them on occasion. But you never really knew how to hit the ball.
You didn’t want to ask for help, not wanting to take to long of a time so the others could have their own fun, so you just stood there, placing your hands in various different ways.
Matt was laughing at something Sam had said when he turned back towards you, placing his rings back on, as he saw you messing with the club. A small smile made its way to his face as he walked over to you, placing his hands on your wrist gently, making you jolt back in surprise.
“It’s just me, sorry for scaring you. Can I help?” Matt whispered to you as he moved closer so he had better access to your hands. You nodded in agreement as you allowed your hands and wrist to relax, letting him move them himself. “Put this one here, mhm, and that one right…. here.” he said as he placed your hands on the club that seemed fit and comfortable to swing with.
“Now just bend your legs and you’re good!” He said as he patted your waist and stepped away.
“Promise not to laugh if I miss?” You asked as you tightened your grip on the club and looked at him. You didn’t care about the others and if they laughed, you only cared about impressing your boyfriend even if you both knew that you kinda suck at golf.
“Promise baby.” Matt said as he crossed his arms and nodded at you, giving you the go ahead you didn’t know you needed. You took a deep breathe before swinging the club back and following through as a the sound of the club hitting the ball rang through the air.
“Ooo that was beautiful!” You heard Chris yell as you faced towards the open field, full of golf balls waiting to be picked up, as you watched your ball soar through the air. It wasn’t far, but it was far enough for you to throw your hands up and bounce on your feet as you made your way over to Matt.
“Did you see that?!” You exclaimed as Matt held a wide smile on his face, nodding as he opened his arms for you to fall into.
“I did, baby! That was so good!” Matt giggled as you wrapped your arms around his waist, wrapping his own around your neck, kissing the top of your head as he whispered ‘that’s my girl.’
“You have another shot, girl!” Larry said as you pointed at the screen, showing you that your name was still present on it.
“Wait…. I have to do that again?!” You asked, eyes wide as Matt laughed a bit as he nodded and everyone else giggled at your words. “I hope you guys aren’t wishing for the again, because that shit would take a miracle-“
“Or maybe just a little motivation from Matt…” Jake interrupted as he looked away from you as to direct the attention away from him.
“Don’t you dare give him that idea-“
“I quite like that! Here let me show you again babe..”

Dreamland II: Golf Clubs, Diana Fowley, and Mulder's Father
Tumblr media
(Courtesy of: @theparadigmshifts)
Dedicated to @goodshipsmulder~
I started out this post trying to draw parallels between Mulder's golf clubs and his past relationship with Diana. Yet, nothing about the Fowl One screamed "golf" or even upper-class country club to me; not enough, at least, for Mulder to spend money on and continually reuse a pair of clubs at her insistence.
However, I stumbled into another entirely other theory-- one that connects directly back to the late Bill Mulder.
Here we go~
DIANA FOWLEY, GOLF CLUBS, AND ORIGINAL THEORIES
Diana Fowley and golfing don't seem to fit in the same sentence: ease and relaxed calculation doesn't quite jive with bold and determined manipulation.
She's career driven: her work ethic caught the eye of the Consortium either before or after she and Mulder discovered the X-Files; and she took trips back and forth from Europe to Tunisia weekly to report her findings. Not to mention, she and Mulder were partners during his first couple months to first year on the files (if my timeline is accurate), and she's shown to fix his singular focus more firmly to "the work" in service of her own end goals. Diana's compliments and wheedling in The End imply she's not slackened her pace years later, and that she believes she can pick right up where Scully left off and do more and do it better.
Perhaps she and Phoebe Green were sporty types, more inclined to low cardio workouts to keep active and in shape. This would be an interesting juxtaposition to Scully (a tomboy Navy brat who had better things to do than hit horsehide with a stick) who might've lacked the sporty inclination of Mulder's previous exes.
Or, perhaps, the golf clubs are another manifestation of Mulder's fleeting interests after moving back stateside. Perhaps he took it up briefly, memories of his blueblood years leading him to that low impact sport first before he switched to swimming (maybe golfing was too mind numbing or it wasn't mind-numbing enough with other people interrupting his focus.)
Perhaps he took it up because Diana suggested it; or maybe he was trying to "find himself" in the wake of Phoebe cheating or Diana leaving.
However, speculations with maximum Fowley influence don't quite fit into the timeline suggested by the room's "design."
WHAT WE KNOW
Tumblr media
(Courtesy of: @amplifyme)
What we do know is: the bed had to be the first neglected item in this room, surrounded as it is by piles of boxes, knickknacks, and junk. The golf clubs were a more recent addition-- more to the front of the line-- and look older and used. There are also upturned plastic totes, old boxes separate from the neat storage boxes in the back, a basketball hoop, a punching bag, a bowling pin-- all a bit used-- and Cougar's sports memorabilia, as well as fuzzy dice, a flat bat or rowing paddle, and newer magazines and file folders.
The bedframe is blocked in by boxes and junk on three of its sides, meaning it was the first item placed into this room. Next to it are boxes stacked professionally, and high. It's unlikely that Mulder would have done so neat a job. And the overturned totes, sports gear, and assorted mess are more recent additions-- hastily packed or thrown together, toppling and spilling out easily with one swing of the door: in other words, Mulder's work.
Thus, the stages are revealed.
The bedframe was placed first; at an undisclosed time later, the boxes were professionally placed around it; and at an undisclosed time after that, Mulder chucked in at least two totes, a lamp (he wedged into the second layer of boxes), fuzzy dice, and sports gear on top of a pullout or loveseat or fabric chair. The golf clubs fall into that addition. And lastly but also undisclosed (and likely on-going), he stuffed in light, assorted papers or shirts or whathaveyou he was too lazy to put away properly in the moment.
Let's break this down in layers.
Tumblr media
EXAMINING THE EVIDENCE: BEDFRAME, BOXES, AND TIMELINES
The bedframe and boxes must be tackled first.
His bedframe is empty (though intact) and neatly set aside in the corner of the room. That seems to be stage one of unpacking and rearranging-- meaning, in my opinion, Mulder crammed the boxes in right after his and Diana's relationship ended. Mulder chooses smaller spaces to sleep (the couch, the bed he bought after Monday); and he also tends to collect but never unpack his hoarded loot. Those boxes can't be casefiles from the FBI since they'd never let him keep them longer than required for a case; and his most treasured valuables are kept in the basement, anyway. Leaving one to believe they're his belongings: things he brought over from Oxford (if he did) or things he bought after moving out of the dorms.
And when was Mulder no longer living in dorm rooms? Post his education, likely around the time he and Diana were dating.
Two theories present themselves: Mulder's things were moved from Diana's apartment after she left, and he never unpacked them; or Mulder himself recently moved into this apartment after Diana left.
The latter would have to mean he had somewhere else to live for the five years he and she were together. However, there are a few canonical points that negate this theory, broadly pointing to a close or working relationship that spanned two apartments rather than one house:
Mulder tells Scully in Home that if he could "settle down" it'd be "in a place like this." Settling down, in his case, meant the home as well as the environment-- living in that location with those people in that kind of a house was still a fantasy without any tempered reality. Mulder would have lived in his parents' home on the Vineyard then in dorms in Oxford and back in other dorms in the States. Afterwards, the commute to the FBI would have excluded a house if in included his focus; and both he and Diana were very focused on work back then. To Mulder, owning a house was still a fantasy, not yet a practical reality, something he associated fondly with better days and better dreams for the future.
On top of that, Mulder is out of place in houses or suburbia, neither fitting in nor feeling in his own skin when prancing about in Arcadia. Yes, he was proving a point to the neighbors (and to Scully); but he wasn't comfortable there: it was too much, too spacious, too empty; and he found corners to wedge himself into-- hopping up on cabinets, hedging himself in with pillows, cramming in a chair up close to the door instead of other manners of surveillance, etc. (That's an entirely other meta post.) Mulder displayed discomfort above and beyond "proving a point": he wasn't used to the "stereotypical American life"-- he was weirded out by the austere space of it.
Mulder is further unsettled by suburbia in Amor Fati: in that case, he has command of his actions (to an extent), doesn't have to play to "the rules", has his sister, and is (seemingly) largely in charge of his life. And yet, it's "too perfect", leaving him to wonder why he's there. Mulder wasn't surprised to see Diana sweep in and seduce him (post here)-- he was shocked when she not only embraced a slower-paced life but wanted to also further domesticate it.
In Mulder's mind, settling down included a home and kids-- whether it was he and his sister riding bikes and eating bologna sandwiches or a distorted view of Diana wanting his babies and raising his sons-- and a rest from constantly running. Permanence. He looked upon it whimsically, not cynically or longingly like he would if he'd tried his best at that vision and failed (i.e. bought a home, had a "life", and lost it to work.)
In evidence of this, Mulder is shocked when Diana returns-- but not hardened against nor drawn back into a life with her. There are no ties beyond the past; and those ties weren't definitive enough for him to have closure or even completely sever, a classic Mulder move. There were five years between them; but nothing that would jeopardize or taint the idealistic world Mulder is trying to bring to fruition by recovering his sister and restoring that happy home life lost to her abduction.
So, what does that mean for the bed and boxes? When Diana left, she probably emptied her apartment and sent over his share of the belongings-- assets of a partial but incomplete merger. Those stayed stored and cluttered around his bed while Mulder philosophically took the couch. They're not enough clutter to have filled a house, but more than enough to spill over into two apartments.
EXAMINING THE EVIDENCE: ASSORTED AND SPORTING ITEMS
Tumblr media
That leaves the clubs, the bowling pin, the basketball hoop, the punching bag, the rest of the et ceteras, and the totes stacked (read: jammed) frontside.
Compared to the Cougars jersey, the golf clubs, bowling pin, punching bag, basketball hoop, etc., appear older, used, and worn.
Turns out, the Cougars are a Houston football team jersey-- and where were Mulder and Scully recently during the opening events of Fight the Future? Despite not attending yet another football game together, it would be like him to pick up memorabilia that had special significance to him about them. If that be the case, Mulder, it would seem, associates Scully with football. Perhaps she prefers it to other sports (until baseball ranked higher up her list after The Unnatural, that is)-- in fact, that would make sense: part and parcel of the stereotypical, all-American Navy family raised on Thanksgiving meals and afternoon football.
Meanwhile, the golf clubs and other sports gear couldn't have been a recent Mulder purchase-- not only because of their wear and tear, but also because of the extent of their wear and tear in contrast to the general lack of time Mulder has to devote to sports other than a morning swim, a once-in-a-while basketball game, and the sports tv he ingests come rain or shine. We've seen him shoot hoops (Paper Hearts, later Two Fathers), we've even seen him sink a bowling ball dead center (Elegy), but we've never seen him take up golf or boxing.
So, if they aren't recent purchases... what are they?
THE REMNANTS OF CHILDHOOD
Tumblr media
Bill Mulder was murdered in Anasazi and buried in The Blessing Way; but his house had to have been cleaned out and sold sometime after his death.
Tena Mulder always avoided peering into the past, veering away entirely whenever her son pressed her for memories (and, ultimately, burning her children's photos in Sein und Zeit to protect its secrets.) That leaves Mulder to pack up and sell or hire to have the house packed up and sold.
I believe the sports equipment were from his childhood. It would explain the wear and tear on the basketball hoop (referred to in a deleted Two Fathers scene here) and the bowling pin, as well as the presence of the unidentified sporting stick and fuzzy dice. (It would also explain why he stuck them with his new papers and magazines.)
But most importantly, I believe the golf clubs were his father's.
Golf requires a particular set of skills: silent calculation, strategic aim, and the ability to reposition oneself if the original swing goes wrong. While Mulder destresses through aggressive play (whether swimming alone or working alongside others he trusts will have his back) and Gibson Praise out-predicts his competitor's next move and CSM plays by the blind hand of luck, Bill Mulder retires away from stress, decisions, and consequences, preferring to keep to himself (post here and here.) Preferring not to compete.
Perhaps the punching bag was Bill Mulder's, too: a solitary way to release his pent-up feelings of helplessness and rage.
CONCLUSION: A SEQUENCE OF EVENTS
Tumblr media
Diana moves to Europe; and Mulder either moves out of her apartment with the bedframe (minus mattress) and boxes or moves her boxes into his bedroom (and sells the mattress he might not have liked to begin with.)
Years later, his father dies. Mulder, a packrat at heart, can't let go of the happier times he connects with his childhood gear. Tena likely wouldn't want it cluttering up her already cluttered basement; so, he shoves it into his unused bedroom, stuffing them all to the left. In the tote closest to the door, he put his easily retrievable items (i.e. magazines, rumpled shirts, fuzzy dice, a few assorted bats, and miscellaneous filing folders) that he retrieves at will.
After Mulder's return from Houston, he opens the door and chucks in the jersey. However, it disturbs the balance of his haphazard system, beginning an avalanche that he quickly closes the door against. With the door in place, disaster is avoided, for now.
A few months after that, Morris Fletcher flings the door open and watches in appalled indignation as Mulder's junk spills onto the floor.
Thanks for reading~
Enjoy!

THE FIVE TIMES YOU KNEW LOVE ON TOUR SCRAPBOOK
thank you for creating this fun challenge @harrystylesgotmefuckedup and to @oh-honey-styles for tagging me <3
1) Which tour stop was your favorite?
London is always the best because it’s home. I also loved Tokyo, Harry went there a few years back and always talked about it and it was sweet to see the city from the POV of someone who loves it so much. We had a few days off before and after the shows so we were able to play tourists which is always fun. 
2) Tour fits! Which was your number one?
Hmmmm… this is hard but the last Wembley show. Heart overalls with no shirt. Delicious.
3) Harry's performed numerous covers on tour. If you had to choose, which has been his best for you? Which song would be a dream cover?
Hopelessly Devoted. I tried to get him to do Summer Lovin’ or really lean into the Danny Zucko of it all and go full Grease Lightin' but luckily for me - I still got what I wanted just a little bit after the show.
4) Lucky you, you've got access to any piece of Harry's merch you'd like. What are you choosing?
Our custom gazelles. That was my idea! It started with the custom final show shirts from the 2018 tour and now every end of tour run he comes up with something unique to give to all the band and crew.
5) Choose your favorite bathroom sign from Love on Tour
Kiwee. I still use it to this day!
6) Which opening act has been your favorite?
Wolf Alice! That was a special request from me - I showed Harry their music back in 2016. If I had a choice they’d be the openers from the very start.
7) You can add any of Harry's songs to the set list from any of his past albums. Which one?
Ever Since New York. You should've seen my reaction when he played it on NYC Night 15. He didn't give me any heads up. I was floored.
8) What are your very own essentials for being away from home on tour?
My work computer and film camera.
9) What's Harry like on tour? Any memorable moments, favorite crowd interactions?
I've been lucky enough to be with Harry through every tour in his career even through the tail end of the band. And I can honestly say this is the most relaxed I have ever seen him on a tour. He has his schedule down to a science. He wakes up in the morning after letting himself have a 'lie-in' (usually is up by 9 which to me is not a lie in but for a man who usually wakes up at 6 it is) we have breakfast together always. It’s a must. And then he’s off to the arena by mid-day while I work but I always make sure to get to the arena early so we can watch the opener together. And then I give him his space to do his ~rituals~ and watch the show from the back or the bleachers. One fun fact that not many would know is as soon as he gets out of a show and back to the hotel or home it’s straight to the treadmill to perform the show through one more time. So it’s a good 90 minutes before he’s in bed again. I wouldn’t have it any other way.
10) In honor of Harry's 30th birthday: Harry played at Acrisure Arena in Thousand Palms, CA on his 29th birthday. Aside from the show, how did the two of you celebrate?
This was nice because I didn’t have to actually plan the party! We had an afters at the arena filled with lots of cake from Hansen’s. We snuck into the golf course at the Madison once we got back to where we were staying - a very drunk yet memorable decision.
this was so fun ❤️ im going to upload more of this story but it’s nice to just see them through the years this way as well. tagging @didhewinkback @for-fucks-sake-h @gucciwins @andwhenshesays @harry-on-broadway @hslllot 🤪 and honestly anyone who writes and want to do one of these !!!!

How about this for a scenario: It's a Tinder date, just like all the okay ones: the family restaurant is alive with the usual Happy Hour buzz and throng of corporate suits and stained jeans alike - the guy you're meeting is dressed like the former; his teeth are white and his emerald-green eyes are fixed on yours as you talk, laugh, sing, even -- but only when him and you decide to play a song on TouchTunes. It crosses your mind you might have one more with him and then maybe -Your eyes snap open to a dark ceiling, crickets chirping not far outside of an open window. You hurt your neck how hard you whip your head around and you realize you're home, in your apartment, in your room, no memory of how you got there. You sit up slowly with a groan as your belly screams with pain when you go to sit up; there's an overflowing moisture between your legs that squelches when your thighs separate as you assume a lotus pose. You gasp when the pain in your head hits you. You let your head fall into your open palms as the throbbing behind your eyes bangs like war drums; you can swear you can feel your heartbeat in your ears, feel it pulse in your neck - and oh God, your stomach. The room positively swirls as you swivle yourself from under the oddly-damp sheets. Your able to rise to your feet for only moments before you collapse to your hands and knees, a hard wretch seizing your body, turning your face hot and locking up your throat and chest - but thank God, nothing came of it on the carpet. But in gagging, you used more energy than it would take to stand. So, you drag yourself across the room to the bathroom; by the time you do, your hands and knees hurt only slightly less than the cramps that started part way through your journey to the toilet. You consider flipping the switch, but you know the light would only hurt. Dread brings a brief, cold chill to your burning flesh - you must've been a mess on your date. You're gonna have to give him a ca-- A knife twists in your uterus that flattens you on the cool linoleum. Your hand finds its way under your night shirt - another cold draft of panic prickles your neck and sends butterflies aflutter in the storm raging in your lower gut. You run your fingers over and over it with dread at the thought of what that lump could be. You were just at the doctor's last year and --You cry out this time, gasping raspily for air when the next cramp finally lets you move. The lump has gone from small enough to fit under your middle finger to nearly golf ball sized. Impossible.Pure adrenaline pushes you through the pain of rising to your feet, at least until you try straightening up; your ab muscles are still tight and twitching from the last wave of pain and you can bring yourself to endure being fully upright. You lean forward to support yourself on the porcelain rim of the sink with one hand as you fumble for the light switch with the other. You shut your eyes to get ready for the wash of light; your not ready see yourself in the mirror once your eyelids finally relax. Fresh blood is creeping down the inside of either leg along with... something you've never seen coming out of you, thick and sickly grey. You clap the hand you're not holding yourself up with to your mouth in a panic. On instinct, you look at yourself in the mirror to reveal even more surprises. Your cheeks and chin are swollen with fat you haven't seen on your face in years - but not just on your face. Your arms, hands, breasts - especially your breasts - all puffy and full and you can swear you can feel your skin somehow tightening around body. Your eyes fixate on the lump a few inches below your belly button that seems to start twitching the more you look at it. This time you reel back as far you can to scream as loud as you can -Your jaws lock and you exhale the scream through your nose; you stare at your tensed jaws with shock and horror. "Shhhh. Too.... loud."
(There's more but the character limit cuts the story off in a spot that makes even less sense so I cut it here 😆)
Tumblr media
That's alright. I have to admit, this certainly gets me curious. So many questions...
Who was the man? What was he? How did I get home from the bar? What am I pregnant with? Is the pregnancy drawing to an end or do I still have some time to go before I have to give birth? Finally, who whispered those last three words to me?
Very intriguing, I like the concept.

Finding the Right Golf Clothes for Women.
Even though men's clothing is still the norm, women who want to play golf have many stylish options. Female golfers often wear polo shirts on the course. These are soft and stylish, with many opportunities for customization.
Long and short pants are both classic pieces of traditional golf attire. Unlike women, men are expected to wear long pants made of cotton or polyester when playing golf.
Golf skirts or long pants are the standard attire for female players. However, if you are professional golfer seeking golf clothing, here are some tips from the pros for purchasing online womens golf clothes for sale. Let's get down to business and not waste any more of your time.
Tumblr media
Women's Golf Clothing
Clothes for women golfers come in a wide range of styles and price points. Some golf courses and clubs consider mock necks and neutral-coloured athletic tops acceptable for female golfers. Avoid wearing a t-shirt or a tube top, though.
Golf skirts are widely considered to be the most flattering and practical choice for women golfers because they come in a wide variety of sizes and cuts.
Women golfers can play in shorts when the weather is warm. However, they should keep in mind that Bermuda shorts are typically worn to mid-thigh. Women are free to wear workout pants on the golf course.
However, women are not allowed to wear jeans on golf courses because doing so may cause discomfort when attempting to stretch the body for a clear shot.
Material of Clothes
• Reliable and Elastic:
Whether you're buying golf clothes for yourself or your daughter, picking a fabric that feels good is essential. Clothing for women golfers should be breathable and elastic. It's also crucial that the material be sturdy yet flexible. Accessories explicitly aimed at women golfers are available from some brands.
A high-quality piece of clothing will be a lady golfer's best ally. Golf attire for women should also be loose and easy to move in.
• Attractive and functional:
Golf attire for women should be both functional and fashionable. Clothing for women should be comfortable and allow for unrestricted movement. Make sure you take your body measurements into account before you go shopping. To play golf comfortably, women need specialized clothing. Excellent clothing will allow your skin to breathe and be both stretchy and comfortable.
• Fit and Comfortable:
Also, it needs to be a good fit so that you can move around freely without discomfort. She will likely be annoyed by the lack of a snug fit. Don't worry if she shows up to the course in a dress.
Comfort should be a top priority when selecting golf attire for women. Whether worn while playing or spectating, women's golf attire should be fashionable and functional.
• Materials that allow airflow:
Further, it needs to be within the range of reasonable cost. Some women's golf apparel is made of lightweight, wicking fabrics that keep golfers dry. And they need to be cosy enough to wear for hours on end out there. Aside from providing adequate protection, they should be relaxing to wear.

Oh boy do I have a treat for you!
So I need to preface this by explaining, this story takes places at a very expensive resort hotel in Lake Tahoe many years ago. I went with my mom and her (at the time) second husband, but we didn’t pay for it, his parents did. (That’s basically all they did was throw money at things, but only for their children, my mother and I were merely tag-alongs.) It’s also important to note that I had already traveled fairly extensively prior to this.
We arrived late in the day our first day there (for a week), and there wasn’t much commotion, plus we had other people besides my mother and I present in the rental car. So I waited to launch into my little experiment with my mom.
Experiment, you say? Should we be worried? (Not at all, she was the one actually gathering the data, but I figured she either wouldn’t have already noticed or wouldn’t believe the trend that I knew we would find. So it was for her benefit, not mine.)
The next day, we left early and explored, but then came back early afternoon to relax a little before dinner. At this point it was just us two, so before we got back to the resort (on foot), a few blocks away, I asked her if she wanted to play a little game as we got back to our hotel. She asked, “What type of game?” I explained that I wanted her to very intentionally pay close attention to all of the wealthy couples that were coming and going from our hotel, specifically what they were wearing, their hair, skin, and how they were overall presenting themselves to the world.
At first she wasn’t super enthusiastic about this, as we historically didn’t have much money and she was NOT a brand slut and thus didn’t really get the appeal or interest in most designer apparel. But that changed when I explained the purpose.
I basically told her, we know the people here are all very rich, they have super expensive cars and clothes and jewelry and bags and everything, so I wanted her to compare how the women looked to how the men looked. Or, in other words, I anticipated that there would be a MASSIVE disparity between how put-together the women were compared to the men. (I also said to her to remember that she was looking at obvious couples, because they would theoretically share their money.)
At first she didn’t really think it would be that noticeable, so I started explaining what I’d seen, abroad and also at home around wealthier, and even not-so-wealthy parts of town that attracted a lot of people.
Lo and behold, most of the men were overweight, and not just slightly, they were clearly not fit or active at all, and often were borderline obese. The same men typically either had very greasy skin, especially in their faces, or were super dry on their face. Often they had messy, unwashed-looking hair, especially in their faces, and they typically wore clothes that were too big and didn’t match or complement them basically at all. And nearly every guy was wearing comfortable shoes (mostly sneakers) and didn’t have their shirts tucked in (polos and button-downs, primarily).
So with such a lackadaisical approach to their appearance, it would be fair to assume the women should be equally carefree about their looks, correct? After all, they were most likely on holiday.
The women were all in incredible shape, there likely wasn’t a woman there that wasn’t slim and toned and trim and fit. They clearly either took care of themselves physically (exercise) or had a very restrictive diet. All of the female hair was glossy, styled, beautiful, and quite often long with many in clean buns or similar up-dos. They all had glowing skin, polished makeup, nails professionally groomed and painted, and were nearly all in some form of business semi-formal such as pantsuits or formal dresses. And basically all of them were in heels,any being stilettos. Basically, it looked like the women were dressed for a Board of Directors meeting and the men were dressed for a yacht party after a week of golf and drinking.
My mom was very quickly horrified, and I quickly explained I had noticed far prior to this trip that the minimum expectation for women was to be slim, gorgeous, properly dressed up, and wearing expensive heels, jewelry, and have matching sartorial ensembles at all times, even on vacation. However, men basically just had to be conscious, clothed in some way to cover their midsection and pelvic area, and not smell like they hadn’t showered (even if they looked like they hadn’t showered). And I told her that it was fairly common, especially in the US, but really all over, more so in wealthy places but basically as a general rule.
She spent the rest of the trip telling me all about couples she spotted (nearly all of them) that were polar opposites in their dress, with the women being impeccable and the men looking like rich slobs.
The results of the experiment? Men made the rules and a lot of women follow them. And it’s dumb!

From Sporty to Street-Ready: Casual Wear Ideas for Golf Shirts
Tumblr media
Golf shirts no longer only fit the golfing grounds. In this sense, this study investigates how easily men's short sleeve golf shirts and women's sleeveless golf shirts fit into regular attire. These shirts can be made to classify the variations between athletic performance gear and leisure sportswear, regardless of the occasion—a social event, weekend chores, or an office environment.
Why Golf Shirts Are Perfect for Casual Wear
Golf shirts are made from soft, lightweight fabrics which are comfortable enough. Here are a few of the top reasons they fit perfectly in casual wear:
Lightweight Materials: Golf shirts work in the regulation of temperature, perfect for all-day comfort.
Moisture-wicking properties: These shirts maintain wearers as cool and dry as possible - even on extremely hot days.
Trendy Fit: With modern styles, it is very suitable for casual and semi-casual dressing.
No-Wrinkle Fabric: It consumes fewer hours in management, so these shirts can look great without ironing.
How to Style Men's Short Sleeve Golf Shirts for Casual Looks
Golf shirts with short sleeves prove to be excellent for men as they can wear them with multiple casual dressing options. Here are some styles that can be adopted for effective styling:
With the Denim Jeans: A short sleeve golf shirt goes quite well when combined with dark jeans for a polished yet laid-back look.
With Chinos or Khakis: Lighter shades of chinos will make for an extra relaxed occasion that's perfect for brunches or evening meetups.
Under a Jacket: You can layer a golf shirt under a blazer or bomber jacket to make for a very smart-casual look.
Sneakers or Loafers: Add low-profile sneakers for casual comfort or loafers for a more elevated style.
Bringing Women's Sleeveless Golf Shirts to Casual Wardrobes
Women's sleeveless golf shirts are fresh in reflecting the ease of movement and chic style. Here are some ways to bring them to casual wear:
High-Waisted Shorts: Over them, it will give a chic athleisure look.
Leggings: Sleeveless golf shirts can be paired with printed or black leggings for an athletic look.
Layered with Cardigans: Putting on sleeveless golf shirts layered with lightweight cardigans is versatile enough for cozier evenings.
Scarves or Jewelry: One can pair these shirts with smaller accessories that might be suitable for relaxed parties.
Colors and Patterns
In changing their golfing short sleeve version for men into a casual sleeveless women's one, the color and pattern scheme in a golf shirt is again the obvious choice to consider.
Neutral Colors: Neutral colors such as white, black, gray, and navy blue make one shirt accommodating for pairing up with many casual-wear pieces.
Stripes and Patterns: Subtle stripes, checks, or other geometric patterns add a playful look to the shirts.
Bright and Bold Colors: Bright red, turquoise, or lime green colors reflect a lively feeling.
Simple logos: Simple designs that use small or discreet logos are easier to incorporate into casual wear.
Conclusion
Short sleeve golf shirts for men and women in sleeveless golf shirts can capture the sporty elegance and relaxed comfort that a wearer can be after. These can serve to dress up a person's ordinary look for casual or smart-casual occasions when dressed up accordingly. But with simple care practices, they can hold their form and functionality so that they stay as a staple in one's wardrobe for many years.
