Where did you get that from? Did you make a poll, all by yourself, or is it just your private opinion? As for me, using a bag everyday. And, a little bit later asking for a photo of a mans bag. Fetish? Edited June 9, 2023 by Gottfrid 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me they look horrible and girly. Just my honest opinion I'd say you're pretty brave to air such an incoherent opinion. I don't think there's many people who generally associate drug dealers with feminity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As i said in my earlier post, very handy when travelling, going through security - I just place the bag on the belt and retrieve it after going through. For traveling, I have a multi-pocket, tactical shirt that holds phones, watches, passports, tickets, spectacles, ear buds, pens and everything else that security can have a cow about. I load up the pockets after check-in, take it off, fold it up and place in a plastic bin for the x-ray scan and simply slip it back on on the 'clear' side. It never gets pulled for a secondary inspection that can happen with a stuffed backpack, cluttered man bag or murse. The shirt is vented cotton so keeps me cool when it's hot or warm when it's cold. https://www.511thailand.com/product/33387/511-taclite-pro-long-sleeve-shirt-72175 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KhunLA Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 It's a 'bag' ... ... man carrying it ... feel free to call it a man bag. Though I've never heard that actually used...ever ... woman carrying it ... it's still a bag .. but again, feel free to call it a woman bag, though again, never heard any called such. Style is personal .. UP2U, as always. I find bags way too convenient, why I have so many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ravip Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 The man bag (or whatever it is called) is quite convenient IMHO. The only downside is that you might leave it somewhere and forget. The simple solution for that, is to make it a habit never to take it off your body. Driving, sitting, etc for long periods, with your wallet, often over stuffed, in the hip pocket may lead to muscle imbalances and nerve irritation in your hips and back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'll stick with my "man bag" but of course, each to his own. Edited June 10, 2023 by VBF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
