Why Are Male Golfers So Freaked Out By Women?

You gotta wonder: what is it that makes these male golfers so freaked out by women? Are they worried that women will kick their collective asses? That the sanctity of their golf course will be tainted by menstruating she-devils? Or are they just old-fashioned bigots?

Well, Elaine Joyce is not having it. She is a golfer who has played since she was eight years old, a college star athlete, and has more than 20 club championships, a single-digit handicap and a ranking among the top female golfers in Massachusetts. Despite her obvious golf acumen, she was banned from a tournament at a Dennis Pines Golf Course in Cape Cod, a public course, because she is a woman. Now she's filed a federal lawsuit seeking to force the course to change its policy. The suit is against the town of Dennis, Town Administrator Robert Canevazzi and three golf course officials. It seeks unspecified damages above $75,000 and an injunction to end the practice of excluding women from men's tournaments.

Seems like a straight up 14th Amendment violation to me.

It's about time the field of golf--and the whole culture around it--be forced to abandon its sexist ways, whatever their lame excuses.
