I think he’s just giving more info. Maybe there are things women specifically would appreciate in golfing? I know in cycling there is a decent amount of gender specific gear, from bike parts to brands of kit that you wouldn’t think to ask about if you didn’t know it existed.
Its not about sexism, there’s literally books about golfing by women for women that are relevant and appreciated. She has everything she could typicly need , I’d like to get her something more thoughtful and targeted towards that crowd that she might benefit from or enjoy
Considering women can and do use vastly different equipment on average (I think it’s toxic masculinity that makes it so guys struggle with the “don’t kill the ball” idea and often need more rigid shafts on their clubs), I think you’re right to clarify and female golfer sounds a thousand times better than woman golfer.
That said, if you aren’t going the gift card route, mix golf and something else and get her a golf towel (has a little ring to attach it to your bag) with some character she likes or something
Maybe don’t refer to her as a “female golfer”, and just refer to her as a golfer.
That would be a nice gift, and it would cost you nothing.
Haha yeah the same thing you’d get a male golfer.
