pshh, I love big ass handbags although I don't carry them outside of school when I switch from my backpack. They're a statement piece and very spacious

[gotc147]

What exactly do they state?

"I have way too much sh*t so I need this gigantic purse that is more like a duffle bag"

Or...

"My boobs are really small so I have this big expensive bag to make up for them"

Or...

"I'm so materialistic that I want to make sure everybody can't possibly miss my purse"

Or...

"I'm too lazy to workout so I carry this huge bag so I have to carry something heavy all the time"

Give me enough time and I could come up with plenty more of these...

My opinion: I have no issues at all with a girl carrying a purse, the only thing I ask is that if it is so big that you have trouble either A, finding things inside it or B, manuvering it in a confined space, that you procure a smaller one.

[peace-love-couture]

It's an obvious status symbol if it's designer. That being said, I DO love my Louis Vuitton totes not only because they are big(for being medium they are), but they're classics and go with anything. As you can see, other girls answered the Q as to why they like them. I don't carry them casually, but some chicks do and that's their prerogative

[ROTFLMFAO]

haha, hilarious answer.

[gotc147]

It's only partially their perogative if they're with me, another reason I don't date American women, too materialistic.

[peace-love-couture]

right, that's why

[gotc147]

I have several reasons for not liking American women, being materialistic is only one of them.

[peace-love-couture]

I'll bet

[gotc147]

You're not helping your case dear :D

[peace-love-couture]

right

[ChemNerd]

Great, great, answer. This should have gotten best answer, since it most accurately reflects how guys feel about these absurd bags. +1

[peace-love-couture]

you're right, 3 thumbs up means EVERY guy feels this way

[gotc147]

QA have you notcied that more people seem to agree with me over you when we disagree? 3 up votes versus 0 down here, I think I had like 9 up votes to one down on another question that you decided to challenge my answer on.

Keep acting spoiled and better princess, I can't wait till karma catches up to you :)

[peace-love-couture]

right

too bad I don't wish bad on anyone

[gotc147]

We've had that conversation already, I don't claim to be a saint but at least I have a sense of ethics.

You don't wish bad on anyone yeah yeah yeah whatever, but you see it okay to belittle low-income people, yeah you're a real shining example of morality.

[peace-love-couture]

nah, I just repeat what's done to me

If you're gonna preach morals, at least follow them

[gotc147]

Repeat what is done to you huh?

So when I answer a question that was not asked by you in an adult and logical manner stating that I do not approve of wealthy people taking advantage of less fortunate people and that I believe they have no sense of compassion or ethics it's OK for you to reply "Lulz the bitterness of those less fortunate I guess".

How may I ask is that not a direct and unprovoked attack on my pride? How is that a retaliatory counter-insult when it was not directed at you?

[peace-love-couture]

It's OK to assume bad of the wealthy, but not to assume bad of the poor...

interesting hypocrisy there

I made assumptions such as you, only difference is I said it directly to you

but you seem a little stuck on the subject and a little too bitter over what others have

[gotc147]

Nothing is assumed, the wealthy have no heart, I have experienced it first hand with every single wealthy person I have ever met including you. My friends are no different, not a single person with a high income can seem to be a halfway decent person. They are all arrogent and manipulative.

Take you for example, despite my trying to explain it to you THREE TIMES you can't seem to wrap your brain around the fact that I don't care what you have, I care about how you and other wealthy people ACT.

[peace-love-couture]

And the poor have no common sense and have this undeserved sense of entitlement

Not my problem

[gotc147]

Almost nobody has common sense anymore, and it is the rich who have the undeserved sense of entitlement.

Why can you not get it through you head? I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU HAVE I ONLY CARE ABOUT HOW YOU TREAT ME AND YOU DON"T TREAT ME NICELY.

Jesus are you THAT materialistic? Do you honestly believe that I care about your possesions?

[peace-love-couture]

Why are you still stuck on possessions? You keep bringing it up. If you don't care, move on and quit posting dude

[gotc147]

I'm stuck on posessions? You're the one who does nothing but talk about material belongings, statement pieces and entitlement, I'm the one who keeps trying to talk about honor and decentcy and ethics and morality and compassion and intergrity, which are six qualities you clear don't have.

[peace-love-couture]

Nah, you keep trying to convince me that you don't care about material items. I mentioned statement piece wayyy down below in the convo. Days later you're still stuck on it.

Again, not my problem that you lack these qualities you admire while condemning others for not sharing your beliefs

[gotc147]

There are plenty who share my beliefs princess, just because you aren't one of them doesn't mean I'm alone.

It's not your fault really, you were born into money and so lived comfortably off the hard work of the middle and lower classes so you were just raised with the idea that the poor are supposed to serve the elite and that happiness comes in the form of stacks of money, the larger the stacks the happier you are.

[peace-love-couture]

Yep and goodluck at your McDonalds job

[gotc147]

Hehe, I knew you wouldn't deny it.

Actually I'm an aircraft mechanic for a major airline, I'm the guy who keeps those multi-million dollar jetliners in the air and am qualified to make a call of whether an airplane is airworthy or not. I fix turbine engines and avionics and hydrolic systems and all that neat stuff that you don't understand because it's a meanial skill that is below your class.

But you pay me $42/hour to do it, not including overtime :)

[peace-love-couture]

i'm sure you are

[gotc147]

And here I was think you'd learned your lesson, silly me.

Believe what you wish, I really don't care. All you do every time we talk is reinforce my opinion over and over again. You think you're no better than poor people yet every time you open your mouth you prominantly display your arrogence and selfishness.

What exactly do you do for your money may I ask?

[peace-love-couture]

Obviously I lie, manipulate, steal and murder for my money

Duhh

[gotc147]

You might be closer to it than you think.

[palek]

Though I've offered to buy it a big ass handbag, my ass prefers to carry a purse.

[peace-love-couture]

you're so funny Palek

[palek]

Thanks fer sayin! ; - )

[Stacyzee]

I love them!

I can fit my entire refrigerator in it!

No, I'm not kidding.

They are great for when you have a lot to carry around (but not cool for an everyday wear).

Also, I have heard that "big ass handbags" make a woman appear to be skinnier when

she is carrying (so this may work to some girls advantage).

[ZenQueen]

lol at that red one..that's a suitcase! I have a big ass handbag! I love filling it with crap...food, clothes, makeup, books, games.. I feel bad for guys that they can't carry them...it's like my own little world in there..haha, maybe I should upgrade to the suitcase..

[PoeticNinja]

I love them! ^_^

All my handbags are just about those size. They are very convenient for me. Even when school rolls around. No need for backpacks.

I won't go too over broad with the sizes though.

The linings on it is great and a lot of pockets too.

[taster]

Wheels were invented for a reason---------> link

[taster]

@Update..typical of you My Dear..ask a question and then blow off the answers...Like I said "wheelbarrow"..more spacious, easier on your back (this will matter in your later years..oh well..doesn't matter to me) and need not fight gravity...speaking gravely...(:(:(:

[peace-love-couture]

how the f*** did I blow off the answers? I simply gave my opinion

[ChemNerd]

Lol that's hilarious, +1

[kheserthorpe]

Yes.

My wife's main handbag is more like: link

Same make/material in fact.

For more casual, I guess you want something less structured, but those are like suitcases. What's ironic is that they seem to be popular only with women smaller then the bag.

[lisa_rowe]

I'd carry something like this only if I get to go on a trip. They look pretty stylish for a trip somewhere. But nothing more than a trip.

I usually carry stuff like this

link

link

The ones you linked are stupid and ridiculous.

[ChemNerd]

Unless you just got kicked out of your house and are finding a place to temporarily relocate, I think they're absurd. If you have that much stuff to carry around, get a suitcase with wheels. At least a backpack.

[Red_Raconteur]

I carry one on a daily basis. It's a classic black Coach that goes with nearly everything. I keep my life in there.

[BellaBella12]

I don't like number two, but I don't think the others are that bad, although if a handbag is going to be big, it looks better casual.

They're good for university.

[peace-love-couture]

I agree for school, but it's pointless to carry a huge bag everywhere else

[BellaBella12]

A leather one it would be. I use big bags because after town, I go to the library to study and bring my laptop with me. Also, it means you can carry your lunch and a drink etc.

I can't bring my own lunch and water in small bags.

[peace-love-couture]

I concur

But guys don't understand the convenience of a CUTE handbag which is spacious

[BellaBella12]

Haha. They like their pockets :D

[ChemNerd]

You know what else is good for uni? A back pack.

[BellaBella12]

I don't like them. I used them when cycling, but otherwise, they're not as comfortable, plus it's faster if you can just reach to your side to get your phone out, rather than take off the backpack, unzip etc.

[HardAppleCider]

I would find it ridiculous only if she asked me to carry it.

Outside of that, a woman's purse is her business.

She is supposed to keep her nose out of his p*rn collection (unless invited) and the same applies to him when it comes to her purse.

[DeepBlue]

They look ridiculous to me, totally impractical. Only for people who constantly need to draw attention to themselves.

[LexiNinja]

How does carrying around a moderately normal sized handbag have anything to do with drawing attention? o.o

[DeepBlue]

Moderately and normal sized? Nothing at all. As for the ones in the pics that are comically large, I don't see what other reason there could be.

[LexiNinja]

With the exception of the second link, all of them are really not all that big.

[DeepBlue]

I appear to have touched a neve by expressing my dislike of large handbags. I must confess I didn't see that coming.

[Cuddle_Muffin]

Lmao..dont even trip..i carry huge purses because I always loose my small ones. I carry a whole lot of sh*t in my bags anyway..they are really of use to a girl like me.

[Brando]

Yeah, I think they look silly. Men compete over things in the looks/dress department, as do women...this seems to be women's competition- who can have the most obnoxious body bag over their shoulder

[goflipaburger]

I'm a nanny :p a big bag is a must lol. mine aren't fancy like those, though and they're a little smaller lol

[peace-love-couture]

well that's understandable, the nanny thing. Or for moms who carry the bigger baby bags.

[goflipaburger]

oh god, I hate baby bags lmao. THOSE are obnoxious, useful but ogod. thank goodness I don't take care of babies anymore lol

[WeaponZero]

I think that if you have so much crap you need a bag that big to store it in you should just get a backpack and be done with it. Better in the long run.

[StewieG]

Honestly, I don't see many women carrying them.

If they're going on a trip and they are using it as a small suitcase, I can understand it.

On a daily basis...no way.

[XRabbitHeartX]

I don't like carrying around handbags period. Whether they're big ass, small ass. I prefer to keep it to the minimum as in no handbag preferably.

[Mrsupaakeru]

I don't really worry about it. I assume that's where they keep their baby or they're transporting midgets.

[Anonymous]

WOW, number two is just ridicules

Link 3- there one int he middle and the one to the left looks like something I would carry my books in, they aren't horrible.

link 4- The bag isn't huge but not my style.

[Croutons]

The second one is ridiculous but the rest of them are good. I love big bags and I cannot lie.

[Anonymous]

LOL is the second one real? Or is it just a novelty item?

Are they filled with stuff or is there just some items in the bottom 25% and air in the rest?

[Anonymous]

When you take a girl to the movies put a 6 pack of beer in it lol

[peace-love-couture]

put McDonald's or wingstop in there too

just from experience :P

[Opinion Owner]

That's my kind of girl lol

[Red_Raconteur]

I have done this before. It's kinda great.

[Anonymous]

I think they're ugly. Gotta get popcorn into the movie theatre somehow though.

[peace-love-couture]

true! my friends do that all of the time
