women aren't stupid, really

[insaneneko]

A man talks through his ass in Is that a purse or an overnight bag? and offends a whole bunch of women with the way he worded his post. He could have started a constructive dialogue on how to streamline what a person (male OR female) carries on a regular basis, but instead does the tired old "sensible man telling the silly women what's the logical and right thing to do" line. I wonder if the OP will respond to the commments he's gotten. He really only can do a mea culpa, and then either apologize or explain what he really meant to say. If he says anything at all. *shrugs*

In any case, I had to laugh at one comment about being ashamed to have such a small bag it's obvious they aren't carrying a book. The smallest everyday bag I will carry nowadays has to fit a book as well as my wallet, cell phone, ipod, keys, etc. It's hard to imagine not having a book handy at all times...

Hahah - what a silly man XD He soundslike he was plucked out of one of those 50s vaccume cleaner adverts where they encourage women to be ELEGANT whilst hoovering BECAUSE THAT IS ALL WE CARE ABOUT XD.

Personally - I never go anywhere without both a BOOK and a NOTEBOOK because if I stop for a second anywhere my brain either requires to be appeased with reading or works too hard and demands that the flow of ideas be written down...

wouldn't be seen dead with a clutch bag anyway... it just... doesn't go with anything I try to project in my appearance - and YES I care about the image I project all the time *Very Vain ^^;;*

Yes, he does sound very silly. He conflates simplification with having the smallest possible bag. The clutch is so wrong for so many women who are on the go and don't want to waste time remembering to clutch their clutches throughout the day...
