Women, handbags and shoes...

[Sean]

Last Sunday my Aunt was here for mother's day and she gets out her purse, and my sister comments on it, something about it being new or some such... I wasn't really listening. I did, however, interject with a "omgosh look at my square leather leather pouch with a strap that holds things it's so coooollll"

My Aunt told me if I was gay I'd appreciate it more.


No, I don't understand the fascination that some women have with makeup products, handbags, shoes, etc etc. I can understand accessories to an extent, but some girls go completely overboard.

This sentence made me giggle, seriously giggle. I'm not sure about what your aunt thinks, but not all gay men dress like females or drag around hand bags and purses (I'm gay but the only thing I would carry is a bookbag for any dirty magazines I want to read on the bus ride into town or to put a bag or my headphones). That's all I need to carry, that and my wallet, oh and of course I wear clothes xD. But seriously (I'm sorry in advance if this offends any females) but you women get these big ass bags and you use it to hold nothing but clothes and money and makeup and that in itself is stupid.



I mean I sit down on the bus and when its crowded those big ass handbags you carry literally slap me in the face (hard) I mean come on, are you trying to outdue other ladies with a big ass handbag contest or something? And also here's some advice from a gay man ladies, you'd do well to not put your $$$ and wallet in your bag and keep it in your pockets to reduce the risk of theft, just a suggestion.

LOL!

It's true. I can't stand those big bags either. I don't get it, and I'm a girl. All you need is something small. Nothing too big. All you really need is a phone, bus pass and MP3. And some change. As a matter of fact, you could pop that all in your pockets!

Yeah but if you get to much in your pockets it takes away from womanly form, and if your phone shifted just right you might look like you have a male part, ew.

But as for an obcession with purses I don't see a problem with it, in my opinion woman have the right to splurge on their selves every once in a while. The thing that gets me is the $600-900 purses that are made by couch (SP?); specially the ones that can barely fit a picture ID and a tampon. If my wife was ever to spend that much on a hand bag I would expect that thing to do something amazing like perform sexual favors or be a mobile hot dog stand, or atleast carry a 12 pack and keep it cold.

The big and bulky bags get on my nerves also, pretty much for the stated reasons above.

I really don't know what guys have that compares to hand bags, the closet thing I can think of is tools for me. Seeing I don't wear hats I can't list them but if I did I am sure that would have to hit on my list somewhere.

Haha I know what you mean! I have a fairly large handbag (nothing too riduiculous), but thats really to fit my phone, ipod, keys, wallet, and pads in. Theres room to spare for my jacket (for the infamous ever-changing British weather), and for a carton of milk or whatever I may need to stop of at the corner shop for. I will carry around the odd fabricated bag or two when I do my food shopping so I don't need to use excess plastic bags (ever the eco conscious am I).

Occasionally i'll go by train to one of the nearby cities, and its crazy how many shopping bags some girls have from all the designer shops. Unfortunatly I find a lot of these people to be the arrogant arseholes who won't give way for anybody. I always feel sorry for that one man you sometimes see being dragged around the highstreet by his girlfriend and is having to hold all the bags. If I were that man i'd tell her where to go! xD
