Son announces to father that he’s ‘gay’. Father asks him if he owns certain items such as iPhone, iPad, Mac ‘puter, Volkswagen Cabriolet, and of course a man purse. The son replies that no, he doesn’t own such items. Father says: “Well then you’re not ‘gay’, you’re just an ordinary queer!”

It’s not the kind of purse. It’s the kind of man.

Nick and all:

the man purse is actually classically known as the messenger bag.

good examples:

This article represents high fashion and sissy boys modeling with bags made by high fashion fags/gay fashion thugs. Excuse the crude man language!

I carry one. It’s the perfect size for my ereader and cigarettes and other miscellaneous items when I am on the train.

I’m at the age where I don’t give a damn what people think. Some people need to grow up fast an get there, it’ll make life easier. I’d hate to be like them and stand in front of the mirror wondering if other people will call you a homo.

Chances are, if you worried about being called a homo, you’re a homo.

Why can’t you carry a brief case or other traditional masculine carrying case, of which there are many?

I will walk around with my plain black nylon laptop bag, because my laptop doesn't fit in my pants cargo pockets. I will walk around with a backpack when I have stuff to lug, or I'm carrying a change of clothes because I'm staying overnight.

But a little purse? Men's clothes have pockets for a reason.
