    So I was complaining to my girlfriend about how men have to carry there wallet in their back pocket and how its annoying as hell to always have to shit on it and shit. Then she suggested that I should just carry a purse, which is admittedly an intelligent thing to do. But then I had to second guess this notion because I'm under the impression that man purses are in fact gay. Which I don't want any gay accusations coming at me because of my man purse. My girlfriend says that man purses are no longer gay, but I have my doubts about that, man purses still seem kind of gay to me. So I just figured I'd ask the experts about all things homosexuality, are man purses still gay?

    I dont like wearing big baggie pants with a bunch of shit flapping around in it either, thats almost more annoying than having to have the wallet in the back pocket.

    yes. man purses are for the very fashionable (look at a GQ or Details magazine. now how many guys actually dress like that?) or they're gay.
    75% the guy is gay.

    i always thought that murses were a joke for even gay guys but in my high school this one gay guy named Korby started bringing in murses. i remember one was a pink Louis Vuitton bag with pink flowers on it. O_O

    what's wrong with your back pocket? maybe just get a thinner wallet.

    what's with the complaining? if it's too uncomfortable to carry the wallet in the back pocket get a purse you like, or an over-the-shoulder bag, a backpack whatever. if you feel you'll look ridiculous, don't get the purse. but you come here on the gay forum to whine about as trivial things as that for what? you know the answers to your dilemma very well yourself.

    Yeah, go with your gut feeling.

    Your GF may think it's cute or endearing to have her man carry a purse, but GF's don't often see those subtle emasculations. Back in the 70s I carried a strap bag traveling thru Europe and the Middle East - but those were the hippie days. It might be out of fashion now.

    So, I carry a backpack - very masculine and utilitarian. It slings over one shoulder when I'm off my bike. Or, I just go without it and put a wallet in my back pocket like I have for over half a century. Ya get used to the style after a while.

    i've heard of that. That's pretty old school, some middle aged gay friend mentioned that once. Colours, correct?

    dude you just care about how people will look at you.Do it because it's more comfortable than a wallet!

    manpurses are gay.

    but you can carry a duffel bag. If you don't have that much shit then cargo pants. Here is a list of what I normally carry in my pockets:

    Cigarettes
    ligheter
    wallet
    keys
    phone

    Now that's enough to fill my pants right there!

    Try to add:

    camera
    weed
    bowl
    radio face
    pen
    money

    and usually I carry all this shit in a normal pair of five pocket jeans. any more and I have to upgrade to cargo pants.

    MAN BAG!!!

    I have one, used to carry it more. It's an old one, it has a cell phone pocket the size of a brick.

    quite a handy bag.

    you know its a man bag when it has a little strap on the side for those boys too creeped out to put the main strap over their shoulder.

    Its more or less gay looking depending on how you wear it.

    More than twenty years ago, I saw a few men carrying purses in the Netherlands. I know that at least one of these men was gay, and he said that both gay and nongay men in the Netherlands carried purses.

    I haven't seen any men carrying purses in North America, and I'm sure I've seen lots of gay men. As a result, I can't say it is a specifically gay thing. Now the people you run around with may have other opinions about the subject.

    Yeah, you want to go with more masculine accesories, so no one thinks you're gay:

    See, not gay at all.
