how about you girls?well honestly my man doesnt wanna bring my bag..he told me it looks ga y.lol but honestly I just envy those other girls who have a man who willingly brings their gf/wife bags..lol So I usually make every drama that I can like its so heavy or directly saying to him that can you bring my bag..and he told me ok as if I have a choice...(I know I am wrong I shouldnt force him doing it if he doesnt like,But I really want him to do that for me) am I being so selfish?

eww! I find it really off when men bring their gf's bags. Girls should bring their own bags otherwise, do not bring one at all! I find it really yucky actually. I often see big muscled men carrying a pink purse or feathery pink shoulder bag and its really not nice to see it. Its an eyesore!! I do not let my guy bring my bag as it is not nice to let someone else bring it for me. Whether its a pink bag or any girly bag.. I bring it. If I do not like to bring one, I leave it in the car. But I do not let someone bring it for me. I treat my guy as a boyfriend not a BUTLER!

ok got your point sistah.. but atleast you guys prove not all girls has the same point of view:) haha I just think its so sweet:P and I dont think we should think about what the others will say..theres a lot of couple displaying over public affection and I think carrying my bag is not that bad..:P

In a way girl,there are times when we should also think what others may think of us. Though its cute for someone else, but if its not appropriate its not going to look nice. Couple displaying PDA is way way different from men carrying a lady's shoulder bag. It should not be compared to one another. Its like this would you like your guy to ask you to drive him home? Or make a fuss about it, make a drama if you wont drive him home? Its a man's thing to drive for his girl, just like us girls, its a girl thing to carry our own bag. :) cheers!!

Hi Princess, I guess you fit your name. Seriously, I am 54 yrs old and I have never once asked my husband or boyfriend to carry my purse in my life! Our fore-mothers fought long and hard to be treated equally to men and not the pathetic little creatures that they once deemed us to be! I am not so headstrong as to say that I don't need help for certain things. I know nothing about cars. I need help on repairs etc. Still, I know some pretty darn good female auto mechanics. I have seen men carrying a woman's purse if she has her arms full and he does not look gay at all. He looks like he is helping her out. But to ask or expect a man to carry your purse for you for no other reason than to make yourself seem helpless?? Sorry Princess but I have to tell you that is a slap in the face for all the women who have fought and still fight to be treated equally to men. oh...and I don't blame your boyfriend for not wanting to do it.

Well, it sounds like it is a big deal to him. He has made his feelings about it known so I just don't understand.....Why persist?

Hi, Frankly speaking, I won't never ask my man to carry my handbag while going out. It looks not appropriate to do so and he is my man,he can help me carry the shopping bag or other things,but not a lady handbag. It will make him looks girly and I don't like to see this kind of situation. I prefer to carry on own handbag myself. Of course, I have something heavy in my bag..probably I will transfer the things out to plastic bag and let my husband carry it for me.

True! I agree with you. We girls should not let our men carry our things when its placed in a lady's handbag. Its not cute. really! its ewww! I laugh at those men who carry lady's bags. Its not appropriate. I do not want him to make me drive a car as its a man's job to drive for a girl. So, I do not ask him to bring my bag too.

Age, really? I have daughters that are 16, 24,25 and 33. I have only once or twice seen the 33 yr. old's husband carrying her bag and that was when she had her arms full with the baby. The other girls all have boyfriends and they carry their own purses always and also do their own driving.

Haha well you are sure acting dramatic, a little selfish and mostly being manipulative. I guess its part of some levels of a relationship. He loves you and will do it even if he hates it, sounds like he is not so secure of his sexuality if he feels so uncomfortable, but mostly you should not disrespect him and make him do that. If you must make him do something for you, make him do something worth while not play silly games like those.

that is just my point, I think your man should not make such a fuss about it, if he feels secure, after all is only an article like any other, but I think you like the fuss he makes eh? lol. I think you should just curry your own bag and let him worry about more pressing things which can be important to you and him. Like your safety or some other way to make you smile

i don't have a gf now. but i don't mind to carry my friend's hand bag. but i always ask her to be with me when i am holding a girl's hand bag. she shouldn't stand to far away from me, because i don't want others think that bag is belong to me! my girl friend told me that girls always hope their partner is caring and doesn't mind doing something 'girly' for them. so i think you are not selfish...lol. you just asking him to do something to show that he love you.

I normally bring my own bag. My husband gets mad because I switch bags a lot (depending on what I need and what I'm wearing) and sometimes forget where I put all my stuff. But I mostly carry it. But if its about holding my bags. He's not afraid to do so when I need an extra hand. I normally tell him to hold it if I need to go to the bathroom or something. He never complains and I've even asked him and he said it's stupid for him to complain about holding his wife's bag. He's not scared of looking bad because he doesn't really care what other people think about him. He says he does it for me and that's just sweet.

why would i bring MY bag when we go out and not hold it myself. damn if i have a very nice bag i would like to bring it myself. for the ladies -- i think it is rather not a good move to let your man bring your bag for the sake of them being sweet. my opinion is that you actually let your man lose their balls in front of so many people, and in public if you let them bring your girly bags! uh-oh. not for me. my boyfriend thinks too that the guy looks awful and looks really not so manly carrying girl shoulder bags!

Hi Princess, I don't really like carrying handbag, but if I do, my bf will volunteer to hold it if I was doing something like putting my shoes on or fixing my hair. But if we were travelling, or shopping, he never lets me carry any of those bags or the rucksack when we are travelling unless if he thinks he really can't carry anymore weight. I often offer him a help and ask him to give me some of the bags, but he always refuse and said he's fine with it.

wow you got one great man there..well my man too hes willing to carry everything..but always hesitated when it comes to my bag,shoulder bag or purse..lol

I wouldn't feel comfortable if my hand bag will be carried by another person even if he is my boyfriend or husband for that matter. But if they are heavy travelling bags, i would truly appreciate his assistance. There are guys who love to carry their girlfriend's/wive's bag but for me I will appreciate the initiative but I will not let anybody carry my bag. It's a personal choice. Don't feel bad if you and your loved one are comfortable in such set up. What's important is you both feel good and happy about it. Love indeed is a mysterious thing. :D Have a good day princess and happy myLotting! :D

My husband sometimes forgets to bring back his helmet itself. So I cannot expect him to remember carrying things, but he does not have any problem carrying once in a while, when I am tied up with something like when I put on a scarf etc. I feel warm and nice when he does such things, honestly. Just like holding me while needed, holding my bag for a while is fine with me and is also cute. And he also does not have any problem doing so.

My husband brings me my bag, but he doesn't carry it. Usually it's just carrying it out of the house or into the house if anything, and I can't think of a time he's carried it out of the house. He's brought it to me. I don't make him carry my bag because I know it does look kind of gay, though if you have a ring on your finger, or a girl beside you it shouldn't matter... lol still, I'll carry my bag.

hehehe...that had been a hot topic in our office once. Girls would love their husbands carrying their bags. i have seen things happening and guys carrying the bags in the begining of the relationship. They ingnore to carry the bagas once the relationship is grown old.....i too had the same feeling. But then i understood that my wife was not doing it intentionally.

My boyfriend will hold my purse/bag if I ask him to.. like if I am going to wear a jacket, he will hold it for the time being or something but he is not going to volunteer to hold my bag.. that is not his thing and I prefer myself to hold my bag.. it is not heavy or anything.

Yes I do... especially since I know how heavy it is with the laptop and whatever it is she brings to work. :p It's the least I could do I think. Besides, I usually ask my wife to go out for dates, so the least I could do is carry her bag for her to thank her for going out with me right? :)
