Some people are worried about heavy purses:

"Moving up the body, this year’s Kate Spade spring bag collection is full of large bucket-like bags that invite you to carry your entire cosmetic collection, a two-year office planner, a laptop, three library books, lunch and have room left over for a well-fed Lhasa apso.

These types of handbags are unassuming medical disasters waiting to happen, physical therapists warn.

Michelle Guevin, a physical therapist in Bradenton, Fla., said wearing a bag heavier than a few pounds can cause shoulder muscles to shorten, making muscles weaker and less flexible.

I think this scaremongering is ridiculous. Trixies work out. Trixies are tough. We can handle heavy loads.
