The Man Purse Game: Utilitarian Or Emasculating?**



SEXY??


Ladies, How do you feel about your man carrying a purse? Okay, maybe they are not considered purses, they can be referred to as 'Man Bags'. Is it okay for a man to bring a 'Man Bag' along on a date?  I once went on a date with a man who wore skinny jeans with a tight silk tee with a huge 'Man Bag'. I asked him while intoxicated towards the end of our date,(did not want to waste my liquid courage) Are you Gay? He laughed and assured me that he was not. I then asked why do you have that big man purse and what the hell is in it? He claimed that he had his gym clothes and sneakers from earlier in the bag. WTF?

Hey Now.. I am not completely against men carrying bags... I just do not like 'Man Bags'. There are some BAGS that get a pass. I understand men travel and need to carry on their things.  A lot of men like us balance their day and dates, straight from the office to taking us out at night. However I was always the type of girl who expected you to leave your S#!% in the car and just bring your wallet. I prefer a man who does not have as much baggage as I have.  I feel cute when a man asks me to hold his sunglasses case or hold on to his camera etc while we are out and about.  Simply put.. The Airport- PASS. Work Brief Case- PASS. Child Care- PASS. Andre Leon Tally- PASS. Anywhere Else- FAIL. A man wearing a huge purse is emasculating. Men should be gentlemen not girlie men.
