I approve man bags, but they must not be too close in appearance to a female purse. Ideally they should be large and rugged. Here is an ideal man bag:
extra man points for carrying the gun in your waistband

My pants have never been happier. [/quote]
I take it that you don’t carry around a water bottle.

I agree, that one’s not so bad.

Sling backpacks. I got one, i juse it mainly for gym purposes. It’s big enough for all your things, and small enough to not be a hassle.
Thanks Ahzaz, this is very promising. It doesn’t look like a purse, it’s sporty, the right size and a reasonable price.[/quote]
No problem B) With this teenagers wont even make fun of you haha

I LOVE this bag, it holds all my books, school gear, my laptop and charger, even my lunch and a half gallon jug of water! A downside is that I tend to load it up too much, and it can get heavy. There is a shoyulder strap that comes with it that you can attach though.
They are sold out, but you might be able to one on Ebay of something.[/quote]
That is a sweet bag. I would carry one of those for sure. Anything that is MOLLE capable is man approved.
I shouldn’t say I never carry a bag. I’ve got a old tactical knapsack that I leave in my car full of emergency stuff, some food, first aid kit, collapsible ASP (also one tucked between drivers seat and center console…and another one in the passenger door) but I never carry the bag with me. I do carry a water bottle, but just toss it when it’s empty. And I leave a nalgene in the car.
Haha. Some guys were just going over this at work. Apparently the difference between a womens purse and a man purse is that the man purse has a strap at least two inches thick, and is short and wide (ie, rectangular). I dunno.
I hate carrying purses, always have. It’s annoying always having to keep track of them, and they seem to facilitate junk - not to mention they scream ‘all my valuable and cool gadgets are in one easy to steal package.’
I have pants that I deliberately sewed pockets into, and I always carry the same crap. Small camcorder goes in right knee pocket, altoids tin with money and cards goes in thigh right pocket, trash and papers goes in upper right pocket, tampons (hehe) in left upper, cell phone in left thigh, PDA in left knee, and the back pocket is a dual memory stick/pocket knife combo. I’m like a nerdy MacGyver.
i had some canvas bag from the army navy store when i had to carry my laptop
