Man bags - YES or NO??!!

[SurreySeagulls]

I was at the cricket on Saturday watching England being half arsed to play when there were two guys who ran on to the field of play and one of the 'men' had a man bag drapped over his shoulder. He looked a right prick and got roundly shamed by the crowd as he pranced his way between over weight stewards who couldn't catch a cold let alone a nancy boy with a bag for his foundation around his neck.

Totally, I have two black leather numbers; identical other than the size. One for work (as my laptop can fit in it) and the other for leisure.

..and the modern day man also needs a man-purse.

WTF is a man purse?

I moved on to the 'man bag' because I felt a bit silly dressed up all smart, walking into work with a scruffy rucksack ruining my smart look.

My manbag fits all the stuff I used to have in my rucksack, without compromising my style. Although, I can't go in for all of these small manbags, if I have a manbag I want a big MEATY man bag (with space for my mascara).

What the f*** do people actually put in their manbags??

haha, I love how British men get so f***ing paranoid about their MANHOOD. It sometimes stops me doing things like buying a man bag but I saw a really cheap one at the airport just before I went on holiday and it was so useful I love it.

Yes.

 

[Simster]

Yes. An absolute necessity for the classy, professional metrosexual man of the noughties and teenies.

In mine, right now, I have:

• My lunch (sarnie, sausage roll, crisps, loads of fruit),
• A jumper (cos my office has no heating and gets very cold)
• A pack-a-mac (because Walsall is a very rainy place)
• A note telling me that royal mail tried to deliver a package whilst I was out (I need to phone them back, innit)
• My Wallet
• My ipod
• Pen
• Ibruprofen
• Spare shoelaces (I break shoelaces accidentally a lot with my big, rough, MANLY hands)
• Waterbottle I use for gym

Off the top of my head; a couple of ties, a raincoat, bicycle pump, lunch, wallet, bike lights, spanner.

bloody hell, you sure it's not 'A BAG'?

strangely enough I've got some Ibruprofen in mine too. I'd never put my wallet in there though. Wallets are for pockets.

Exactly. Holdall or suitcase would be more appropriate.

It is all about maximising space, innit.

I use a pack-a-mac, which takes hardly any space. The jumper I put in is equally small and flimsy (asda price), the biggest thing in my manbag is actually my lunch.

Yes.

It sounds like you really are paranoid if it stops you doing things.
