I wondered the same thing.

The only way to know a person's sexual orientation for 100% sure is to...well you know.

The man-bag is called a murse.

I'm guessing trendy young thangs just figured, "why the heck not?" Young men in urban areas will also ride "womens" bicycles. I've been told that they are less likely to be stolen. Makes sense to me.

What's the story? People need a "story" to explain trends?

I remember back in the early 80's, African American men in L.A. were carrying little bags. No big deal. Who cares. I could care less what another man or woman carries. To each his/her own.

My wallet has been a woman's clutch for over a year now. People don't mind it!

Jerry called it a European carry all. Are you sure you're a Seinfeld fan?

Seems like a silly thing to get hung up on. Each to his (or her) own.
