I actually like this sort of strap and will punch anybody who calls me girly.
Out here in the west you wouldn't be called girly. My brother-in-law from New Mexico used to wear one all the time.
"In 2005...a 17-year-old high school senior in Montana was denied his diploma because he wore a bolo tie to his graduation ceremony.... The state's governor rushed to the lad's defense, declaring, "In Montana and anyplace in Indian country, a bolo tie is dressed up... a tie is a tie." In fact, in 1971, the state of Arizona had already made the bola tie (as it's spelled there) its official state neckwear. New Mexico followed suit in 2007.
