My husband saw a man with a "Man Bag" the other day and asked me an interesting question. What does a straight man put in a "Man Bag"

LieselVentouse · 08/04/2007 21:27

Yeah but thats different

lulumama · 08/04/2007 21:27

much nicer than bulging pockets or me having to carry everything

LieselVentouse · 08/04/2007 21:27

sorry that was to Missdee

my friend uses a man bag. He is straight although most people when they first meet him assume that he is gay.
He keeps his Blackberry in it, his inhaler, diary, house/car keys and wallet.

Bulging pockets on a man had to be admired IMO

OP posts:

personal digital assistant.....phone/diary/email etc thing in one small digital device

Carmenere · 08/04/2007 21:29

Books, pens, receipts, babywipes, a bottle of water, phone charger, Psion, they are the sort of thing that dp carries around in various rucksack type bags so I presume that they would all be found in a man-bag

Thought a man bag was for metrosexual men, not gay men.

Presumably men put things like their ipod, mobile, wallet, etc in their bags???

a scrotum - gosh don't you know anyfink?

HoppyDaddy · 08/04/2007 21:45

Manbags......AAAAaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Only if you need to carry surgical stuff or lots of pills should a straight man have one. Metrosexual my arse, it is possible to be trendy and not look gay, you know.

If you need to carry stuff, use your pockest. If you have big stuff, get a rucksack. Simple.

HoppyDaddy · 08/04/2007 21:51

Keys, mobile phone and wallet. Loose change if I have any. Bluetooth earpiece for phone is usually in coat pocket, or if I'm driving, on my ear.

LieselVentouse · 08/04/2007 21:53

...and a large canoe

HoppyDaddy · 08/04/2007 21:58

Nope no canoe. Just big hands to help fill my pockets.
