Funny comment on purses
One of my female readers (yes, I have a couple), emailed me regarding the post in which I complained about my wife’s purse:
It is MY EXPERIENCE that even while you men complain about the size of our purses, we are often asked to HOLD your things because we have room for them!
I’m constantly being asked by my boyfriend to put his camera, keys or something or other in my purse, because he doesn’t have room in his pockets!
I respond with:
I don’t complain about the size just the fact that she carries too much crap and can’t find any of the crap she carries. If I needed insulin, I would under no circumstance keep it in my wife’s purse.

Besides, when we go somewhere that she doesn’t want to carry a purse, I become “Mr. Pockets”. Her clothes never seem to have big enough pockets for her junk.

True. If we go out to dinner my wife leaves the purse. She then asks me stick her ID, bank card, and sometimes phone in my pocket.

Aside from her taking over my pockets, I always end up having to hold the bloody thing while she tries on clothes or needs both hands temporarily.
Luckily, Mizz Merchant likes small purses.

In defense of women everywhere, there’s only so many places you can go wearing pants and a photographer’s vest before you start to look like a lesbian, and most other women’s clothing is lacking on pockets.

Two words: Cargo pants.

Rightwingprof beat me to it.
Those things are pretty much daily wear for me, and have more than sufficient space for my stuff, her stuff, and whatever else might need to be carried..
Might make it kind of funny to walk towards the end of the day, but no murse for me.
