A man talks through his ass in
Is that a purse or an overnight bag? and offends a whole bunch of women with the way he worded his post. He could have started a constructive dialogue on how to streamline what a person (male OR female) carries on a regular basis, but instead does the tired old "sensible man telling the silly women what's the logical and right thing to do" line. I wonder if the OP will respond to the commments he's gotten. He really only can do a mea culpa, and then either apologize or explain what he really meant to say. If he says anything at all. *shrugs*
In any case, I had to laugh at one comment about being ashamed to have such a small bag it's obvious they aren't carrying a book. The smallest everyday bag I will carry nowadays has to fit a book as well as my wallet, cell phone, ipod, keys, etc. It's hard to imagine not having a book handy at all times...
