I am now seeing it more and more, few with any support. 
But I have also seen a lot more women noticing my chest and giving off, the "your turn" look.

🤣 it makes me laugh when I see the ladies do a 'double take'. 😉

My wife has always said that no one cares anymore what people wear. A lot of people dress pretty wild anymore. So everything  else seems really tame. So to make her point, I shopped all day with her purse with her not around most of the time. No one gave me a second look or said anything. Keep it up Joni, you look great.
Funny, I carry a purse every day.
I have had friends ask about it, and I simply tell them my pockets are worthless while sitting in a wheelchair. Carrying it is also a bit of a task for me, so I drape it over my neck and right in front of me while I wheel around. It's most visible.

Most people never notice it, and if they do don't say anything. It is the most 'manly' looking one I could find. 🙄

I also use an over shoulder handbag (purse in US)
Given the all but useless pockets in women's trousers (pants in US) it is a necessity if I do not wish to spoil the look of an outfit.

In the unlikely event of segueing to makeup, where to keep the lippy and mirror is presorted - only joking!

I have used one for years. Since my 30's at least. 😉

Yes, my family uses the words handbag and trousers as well. 
I'm only 2nd & 3rd generation American. 😉

The joy is absolutely wonderful. A place for everything and everything in its  place (no I am not describing a bra) 
Every now and again though I get a bit narked when "she who must be obeyed" wants to use mine as an annex because of the fearful clutter in her own! 
I must love her.....

This older thread morphed into talk about purses (handbags). 

Just out off curiosity, how many of y'all use one?

I definitely do, and it never seems quite big enough either 🤔

I do. Don’t like things in my pockets. And my pockets are small. I quit losing everything once I went to a handbag. Was always looking for my phone,keys,sunglasses, reading glasses,lip balm,wallet and so on🤣🤣🤣. These women are much smarter then us. They had it figured out a long time ago.

It's good to have a few to chose from as well. 🤔

Funny story about a purse. 

As a then cigarette smoker and way before my gyne I had a small bag I used occasionally when going out for the evening. One night at a bar a fellow there said "Nice purse buddy" and for some reason I immediately answered "It's not a purse, it's a holster for my pistol" He shut up really fast and "made love to his tonic and gin" (from Billy Joel's the piano man) :-)

BTW, the Europeans have men's bags down with the logical thinking not stuffing your pants pockets with things? We Americans are so hung up on appearances!

Working as a Land surveyor, I had many items I needed to carry about on the days I was outside. 

I found using a purse to be invaluable after trying other solutions that didn't work. 

A few other surveyors asked me about my "purse use", and I explained the reasoning behind it. 

Soon every surveyor in the company was carrying a purse everyday.

Tactical purse.. 

yeah... 

Because of my involvement with the SCA, I have seen many a "purse" slung around men who look like something out of Spartacus or Vikings. 

Unless it had pink paisleys on them,. I prob. wouldn't bat two eyes.
