english_farang_lady Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 My handbag/purse finally reached the point today where I could just not find anything, it was so overloaded with stuff. Having cleared it out now of old receipts, notebooks, pens, magazines, CD's, medicines, scissors, books, torch, comb, keys, mobile phone, make-up bag, pack of Kleenex, wallet and various other stuff, it is now useful again. I flicked through a magazine, and saw Gerry Halliwell with her purse/handbag, and it is TINY. My wallet alone is bigger than that! Does she go out without all the useful 'stuff' above? Wonder if this is a generational thing? What is in your purse/handbag? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eek Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 (edited) I am the anal handbag queen i think. Or close to it. I have a bit of a passion for bags and so my way around the junk factor is to have a couple of separate small zip bags inside my handbags for easy switching. One bag contains all the junk I like to take with me 'in case of an emergency' or 'just in case' (i wont list them as it would be endless and shameful!). The smaller zip bag is my bare essentials that i can take if i feel like going with a tiny bag. Also, i always buy mini sizes, like mini deodrant etc. All i then do is move my little bags between bags. If push comes to shove or for a night out Im happy with cash and a mobile phone. If you ask for anything in my home, and i have it, i can tell you exactly were it is and what items are with it. God knows what Freud would make of me but dam_n i like to organise. Who can shout 'Anal Retentive' loudest?! Edited July 14, 2007 by eek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seonai Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 we've done this before girls. But just for the record......

Nienke Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 Brrrr, just another reason not to have a handbag. I usually wear just a money belt with wallet, phone, pen, little piece of paper, keys and sigarets. Nowadays also eyedrops for the dogs and a syringe as I standard forget to take these things out after use During training, two money belts, one with the above and the other one with pieces of sausage and the clicker And on the very rare moments I'm dressed up and can't wear that belt, than a handbag big enough to put the money belt in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me too hush. But, im of the opinion now its better to be safe that sorry. I would hope never to have to use it, but i think its a good idea to carry one. Ill have a look around CM, but if not ill get some next time i go to bbk. Tnx all, for the tips on where to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suegha Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 I asked my wife about this one as handbags have always facinated me. She uses two types - large and small. The large has so much stuff in I bet I could ask her for a length of rope and she'd have one in there! The small is minimilist, phone, credit cards and some money. I think it's an interesting 'sexual' difference that men use pockets! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eek Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 haha, very true! But, our revenge is when we ask if they can hold our bag for a while.

Nothing like seeing a big butch man looking sheepish holding his girl's handbag. Oh sweet sweet image If my wife asks me to hold her bag I do so with total conviction! It really fools the straight men who don't know how to respond and just doesn't fool the gay men who just know I'm holding my wife's bag. I wonder what that tells you?
