What's wrong with guys carrying bags? Long as they're not asking you to hold em, I don't see a problem.
Looks like "the ghey" is spreading faster than the authorities can contain it.

Must not be sufficiently misanthropic.
That is because, I am in fact, gay.![]()
eh, I felt it was a bit "in your face"... kinda immature. I went by balli on the last forum I posted at and everyone here called me balli too, so I just went for it. I figure 5000 posts in everyone knows what balli's short for anyway.
But since I've thought about it I must say, ballijuana was far more aesthetically pleasing to me eyeballs. I miss the dichotomy between the llij and the uana.
That begs an interesting question... Is it more acceptable for a gay man to act effeminate than it would be for a straight guy? I'd opine that the answer is yes. At least the gay dude's honest. As an outside observer I'd be far less contemptuous of an obviously gay man rocking a purse, than I would be of a purse-wearing guy who was holding hands with some smoking hot chick.
Of course, being gay, I doubt you're into judging people over gender-role issues, be they gay or straight? I myself am fairly comfortable with it.
I digress. In my opinion, I couldn't care less on how the straight or gay dude is acting or wearing. What enthralls me with this whole 'man-bag' thing is the convenience it offers. I carry a lot of electronics with me. I have two mobile phones, an iPod, a DJ-style headphones, and a Sony PSP, oh and not to mention the car keys and my tad bulky wallet. Now, imagine carrying all those without a bag. Your trousers will have all the bulges in all the wrong places. Now, that, I think, is sad.![]()
I like my bulge to be seen in the right places.![]()
Does my laptop bag count as a purse?
In my eyes, on the contrary. From the op:
The only time a guy should have a bag slung over his shoulder is when he's carrying a laptop in it.
Not if you stop carrying your makeup in it.
I own one.
It's also never seen the light of day in the US because I don't carry much on a normal day to day basis.
In the EU? Almost every day I venture out of the house.
People actually say "Whilst"

I'm probably more metrosexual than I'd like to admit. But I hate that term. I guess because I want to take care of myself and look 35 when I'm 50, I should feel guilty about that? Whatever. I'm going to keep my skin and my body healthy, and if someone has a problem with that, well, they know where to stick it.
That said, this is a bit over the line. Men who carry purses are just too effeminate. I mean, really? There aren't other options out there for you?
Let me give you one, and something I use to carry stuff on (nearly) a daily basis:

They're amazing. Made of truck tarp liner and a cordura outer s . You could literally stab this thing with a knife and not have to worry about anything inside. They're not waterproof but they are extremely water-resistant, and they're much healthier for your back than anything you have to carry on one side of your shoulder. They have a sweet belt buckle so you don't have to lift it over your head to get it off. Plus, they look a of a lot cooler than a manpurse. And have a lifetime guarantee. I've had mine for almost 4 years now and it looks nearly flawless.
People actually ridicule others for having a decent vocabulary.![]()
I never knew so many guys are threatened by a damn bag.
Whilst is part of a decent vocabulary?
That's classic in itself.
I like that Chrome bag... I'd consider getting one for RG if he needed it.
An educated vocabulary is hot, but "whilst" is a British word and British men are automatically under su ion, except for this guy:
Thats ok. I'd never wear one (only because I have no reason to) but I wouldnt give a weird look if I seen someone else touting it around.
I use "whilst" often, didnt know there was such a stigma attached to it. But then again, consider the source...the same people who think men wearing purses is "cool" and "attractive". These are the same "men" who will wear make-up just as soon as it becomes socially acceptable to do so.People actually ridicule others for having a decent vocabulary.![]()
Guys should carry their in whatever they want. But I personally prefer a backpack or briefcase; suits them better.
