Do you remember that Progressive commercial where the couple is shopping for auto insurance? And the progressive lady gives them quotes so they don't have to shop around? She says, "And you don't have to hold her purse anymore," to the husband.
His wife replies with, "It's a European shoulder bag." And the husband has that awkward look on his face that says, he's only wearing it because she bought if for him, and if he could he'd burn it.
Well, when I saw it I thought, yeah that's funny. And then I got to Europe and realized that its totally true. More men than not carry a European shoulder bag, or man purse, or murse for short (not to be confused with male nurse). This is also not to be confused with a tote bag, or messenger bag. No these are purses worn by men, and sold in the guys section separate from women's purses.
So guys, look out. Your souvenir present is a man purse... Sorry, European shoulder bag.
