I wanted a “satchel” for school, and the lovely item I bought was named a “men’s messenger bag”. I’ve never heard that term before!
The differences between it and a “women’s purse” (WP):
- It has a more comfortable shoulder strap than the dainty ones on WPs.
- Its morphology is pretty square. WPs have fewer right angles.
That’s all I got so far.
I do prefer this style to WPs. It fits my look. I don’t have a problem with style differences. I just think “men’s purse” is a more accurate term; but I’m sure that name scared the American focus groups lol.
Well, maybe my bag is differentiated in that it can carry a laptop. Can WPs do that?
“It’s a tactical messenger bag that I paid a 50% markup for. My masculinity is very sturdy and resilient.”
IT’S GOT MOLLE STRAPS

You fucking rube smh, I bought my last purse because it was big enough to fit an 11.6" laptop.

Cool! There is practically no difference then.
Can you put snacks in it?

A swishy dress? No sir, this is simply an extra length tunic in the style of the Anglo-Saxons made of a lightweight material. That it swishes most pleasingly when twirling is simply a happy accident.
I’ve pretty much always just called it a purse. Got a nice maybe waxed canvas Duluth pack I’ve been toting shit around in since like high school.
got a neat canvas bag (smaller than a messenger bag) at a surplus store but I’ve found myself almost wishing it was less tacticool (its not really its just a lot of canvas) and more like a purse

Messenger bags are cool AF and I don’t care what you call them. It isn’t a statement I just want to put my shit in a bag so I can carry it around easier!
