t’s tempting to answer the question by saying, “because most men would not be caught dead in them.” Each woman is different. However, handbags are utterly feminine at its very core.

Some may beg to disagree. After all, while men would not carry a red tote bag, some will not mind walking with a messenger bag. We are in an era of man-buns and manbags, after all.

Men do have to carry stuff they need: portfolio, books, and laptops. Sometimes, they don’t, especially if they are out for a more relaxed reason. They think wallets can carry just a credit card and a business card. He is good to go.

With women, though, the handbag has become a necessity. How many women do you know who go to town without at least a black leather clutch bag with an attitude?

The history of handbags certainly has clues about why the handbag has been tagged as feminine. During the 18th century, women’s clothes could not accommodate objects that the women felt necessary to bring. So, they started bringing along what they called a reticule. They kept their coins in them. It gave them a sense of independence, being able to pay for themselves when out and about.

During the following century, the chatelaine had become popular with middle-class women. They had to work and study. So, they had to bring along more than just a few bits of coins. Their bags carried useful stuff, such as a pair of scissors or a batch of books. They needed books that could carry their heavier belongings.
