I wasn't calling you closeminded, I was saying that he could do a speedy instead of luggage "because its a guy thing to do"... in no way was I attacking you opinions... sorry if it came across hostile

s his bags. I guess many here in the US would stereotype him as well. With his bags and night creams. 
Kinda funny because I live in the midwest and he gets teased alot by his buddies. But, he doesn't care...he'll even take his bag to a superbowl party tomorrow. 
And, I'm happy as long as he's happy 
I'm actually debating on getting him a LV for his birthday...it'd be his first. :okay:
Aww thanks... but I really looked a hot mess that day. It was REALLY early in the morning and my friends and I were in a parking lot waiting for Border's to open and my friend Eric snapped the pic. So the reason why it's headless... I was an unshaven hot mess! LOL BUT THANKS and yes it is BIG!
Here's the headless me with mine when I first got it!
I think it looks good! There is no way the 40 is too small. I think anything bigger would just look ridiculous.

Hey kuppusamy...glad you have a husband who likes to carry bags and not care about stereotyping etc..
I guess he understood how practical carrying a bag is!
As for the night creams thumbs up as well...
I really don't get people some times...does being straight means untrimmed hair, dirty face and smelly underarms? lol
I'm glad that I'm not that type of guy!!!

Haha I agree.. the 40 is enough of a bag... though I am contemplating on the Voyage MM Alma... but there's no inside pockets.. so that may be a quick NO!
can anyone post pics of ya with yr bags?
There is a good amount of pictures of guys with speedys on this thread:

Well, honestly he has a ton of stuff to tote around. And, usually he never just sits in his office. So, he likes to have what he needs at his fingertips. Practical. While a briefcase works for some guys it won't be as practical for others. My husband would hate the bosphore just because it's so simple - a pocket addict.
I do think the others where just expressing their opinion though.
My man looks hot when he picks up and carries my speedy 40....I just love to watch
.....anything smaller is too feminine in my opinion.

I think the guy with the 40 looked great, missing head and all. LOL.speedy is a unisex bag imo. looks like small lugage in the mono or damier , now if it was Mc , than thats more fem, but I think anyone should wear what they feel comfortable wearing, who makes and sets these "rules" anyway? Dont wear white after labor day, men shouldnt groom, ect.. silly and a step behind, and not all guys who wear these are gay, my cousin wanted the Chanel cc studs and a LV bag and he is totally st8, who cares anyway. Rock it!
I agree with with what Kuppusamy said about luggage
I think carrying around a Keepall as a daily bag would be totally impractical - they're just so big. What if you wanna eat in a restaurant, how are you gonna walk past the tables without bashing everybody in the head and sending soup flying into their faces? Or what if you are on a crowded subway - the bag is like 3 times your width and it'll get bashed, crushed and bent.
A keepall, for me and most people I think, would be totally cumbersome and impratical. Who carries four changes of clothes, a sleeping bag and an entire set of toiletries for a trip to the mall? I think that unless you do carry enough stuff on a daily basis to fill a keepall then there isn't much point in carrying one just for the masculine bigness.
I think that a saggy empty Keepall with about 3 items inside looks worse than a saggy Speedy with about 3 items in - since a keepall is luggage and is meant to be filled and a Speedy is a handbag and therefore isn't...
Not to mention the fact that the Keepall is a full $200 more than a Speedy 40 or $400 more if you get one with a strap. I personally can't justify spending this much more money on a Keepall just for a mere 5cm more of canvas and 2 longer strips of leather going round the outside of it, especially since I'm only a student!
