a golf bag is a man purse
A female friend of mine who recently picked up the game of golf made this observation, and knowing how cluttered my wife’s purse can get, I thought I’d see if this is true. Do I have a man purse? Here is what is currently in my golf bag:
42 tees of various colors.
14 clubs: irons 3-9, three wedges, three woods and a putter.
13 assorted golf balls.
12 “funny ball markers: great gags for the green,” un-opened and shrink-wrapped.
5 Divot fixers.
5 golf pencils, two with erasers.
2 Ball Markers from Country Companies.
2 quarters.
1 blue “Cubs” golf towel.
1 Energizer Battery.
1 golf glove.
1 lighter.
1 pack of smokes with 14 forgotten cigarettes.
1 piece of paper: “2006 Peoria Men’s City Championship Qualifying Rules.”

Nope, sorry. To qualify for a real purse, you need to have supplies for every conceivable event in your daily life. Most women’s purses have tolietry items, reading materials, three kinds of pain killers, breath fresheners, a variety of pens, pencils, and crayons, food of some kind, 12 to-do lists, a pound of loose change in the bottom, contraceptives, a first aid kit, a cell phone, and a wallet with all of the other various necessities.
And that’s a woman who doesn’t have children.
You have a long way to go.

The first time I read this I thought “42 t-shirts? How would they all fit?”
Little slow on the uptake today.

I bet those cigarettes are going to taste DELICIOUS! Stale cigarettes are one of life’s greatest pleasures, right up there with beer that’s been sitting open overnight.

Yeah, no, you don’t qualify. You might squeek by if you had a lip product (chap stick, etc) but unless there’s some sort of gloss/stick for lips in it – it ain’t a purse.

Um … you didn’t mention the peanuts.
And while I agree with Mrs. PH on most of the contents, I must rebut the whole concept of carrying around contraceptives. She must be an optimist.

Mapgirl-
One can never be too careful when it comes to contraceptives.

It seems like you have seen your wife’s purse but that golf bag is nowhere close. Every single person that has picked up my purse has made a comment about how heavy it is. THAT’s a purse.
