Why does my husband want to carry around a purse?

[Anonymous]

he's been holding mine in public when we go shopping but mentioned that he will need one for himself to carry his own things.. does this seem normal?

My aim on GAG is to decode love, attraction, and all the “is this normal?” moments in relationships for you, gorgeous 😉

Yes, it’s totally normal. Lots of guys use crossbody bags, sling bags, or “man purses” now. He’s probably tired of stuffing pockets and likes the convenience. Honestly, it’s kind of cute he started by holding yours. Not a red flag at all, just practicality with a side of style.

Yeah, why not? Scottish men still carry one around their waist. It's called a sporan.
Hippies in the early `70's used to carry them.
I've been carrying one since the mid `90's but mostly only use it to carry my CD player so I don't have to have it in my hand all day every day and worry about dropping it and breaking it. I don't carry it much, anymore, though. Only if the pockets in my pants have holes or if there are no pockets in my pants!

I think I would like a purse myself. I carry around a lot of stuff and have a case for my phone that hangs from my belt. it would be good to have a purse.

Anything for another troll post, hey dude.

Why even bother?

Maybe he just want to help you? If asked, I wouldn't mind carrying my girl's purse, but I wouldn't actually desire to do it.

[Asker]

no, he wants one for himself he says

Like a feminine one or like a European male one? If the prior, maybe he isn't as masculine as you thought.

[Asker]

he wants a woman's purse, yes

[Opinion Owner]

Without more information, my first guess is he might be trans, but I wouldn't say for sure.

[Asker]

or possibly gay?

[Opinion Owner]

I guess that could also be true.

[Anonymous]

He shouldn’t have to. Unlike others I carry what I bring or don’t bring it.

[Anonymous]

Maybe it just feels "right " for him. Have you suggested some matching heels?

[Asker]

hmm, maybe. wanting a purse is kinda feminine

[DryGermanGuy]

Get lost, you boring troll.

[Anonymous]

Totally normal, yes. Help him shop for one.

[Asker]

okay, I will

[Knotty_ducker19]

Sounds a bit like a joke

[Danny_dan92]

He’s gay
