This is why women prefer handhelds.

i really hate the idea that guys can't carry bags, it's really mostly just a US thing, and even in the US it is a lot more accepted in big cities. Having lived in Japan and Korea for a year each i started to carry a bag around my shoulder and realized it is extremely useful for guys too. I was really dissapointed at coming back to the US and people calling me gay for carrying a bag, that is something that really has to change.
