The Purse is "A Woman's Secret Source of Power" ?
I was listening to the radio one day, and Ryan Seacrest was on. He explained, earlier that day his sister had walked into the station and he asked her for a mint. His sister responded with: "It's in my purse".
According to some movies, the purse is "a woman's secret source of power."
Of course people just don't know what women put in there.
Do you wonder what women put in there? Would you ever go through a woman's purse, or have you wanted to?

i have plenty of friends who cringe and would rather run away than go in my bag.
How is a purse a source of power? Mine just holds things I need. Anyway, I have had men rifle through my bag without asking me, which is kinda intrusive.
I'm not sure if I want to risk the danger of going through a purse! Who knows what I'll find in there! :D
I don't know why people like to go through my purse... I think it's because I usually pull out food at random times throughout the day...
Most men are too afraid to do so, as a purse always has the possibility of containing tampons.
I keep bricks, lead, gunpowder, canned peaches, and tampons in mine.
just kidding I hate handbags. I use my only one as little as possible.
Do you wonder what women put in there? Would you ever go through a woman's purse, or have you wanted to?
lols okay most women would have their
- keys
- wallet
- chapstick/ lip gloss
- foundation/ compact mirror
- eyeshadow brushes/ what not
- cellphone ( if not they're holding it )
- bottle of water (sometimes)
- pens/ pencils (just incase)
- ipod/ mp3
- umbrella (if like vancouver weather)
- gum/mint
- tissues
- and if they have their time of the month...
tampon/ pads :P
just regular stuff really, except yeah, guys
feared of finding/discovering that the "tube of lipstick"
is really a tampon LOLS :p
is secretly terrified of contents of purses... womens pleasure seekers..i.e. old food items..., male condoms fer enormous girths..., rat traps, sharp implementations, verbal atrocities...., ill defined sticky stuff, old ..real old panties with glued on snail trails....eww... nope not interested in knowin that much bout what im bedding...
My friends gave me a rep for having everything in my purse. Because when they need something I tend to have it in my purse. A majority of the things in my purse I don't need it but I bring it just in case anyone needs it, and they usually do.
uhm, Hell no? Scary stuff in their.
secret source of power?
no wonder girls easily hand over hundreds of dollars for a small sack.
No wonder I sometimes feel powerless... I have no purse! I usually just stick everything in a back pack and head out for the day... Darn! guess I better go purse shopping if I ever want to be a powerful woman...........
Haha, that's funny. I suppose this is true. I don't really use a purse per say, I like big bags, it fits more. I wouldn't say my bag is my secret source of power, I just carry a lot of useless stuff like scissors, oh I used to bring tape and glue around too. I have a mirror, chapstick, eyeliner, ipod, keys, wallet, glasses, gloves, earphones, water, pens, and camera. Oh and my phone. I like using a big bag 'cause when we go out I can just help him carry his stuff.
I go through my girlfriend's purse and pick up her cellphone as necessary. I don't go through her stuff for no reason though. She asks me to find things for her or to see what her texts say. Also, she carries ibuprofen all the time and if I don't feel well then I'll grab some. Of course, I used to deal with my mom and older sister telling me to look for stuff all the time so I grew up with that sorta "it's no big deal" mindset. Men are supposed to be fearless right? LOL!
no, it's none of my business and honestly I don't really care.
I can't even pay any of my male family members or friends to get something out of my purse. It's like asking them to give me a pelvic exam: "NO. I CAN'T DO THAT. IT'S WRONG AND PRIVATE."
I know you're really just scared you'll have to touch a tampon, it's okay.
A womans purse is an extension of who we are,
My husband will not get into my purse, even if I say it's okay, his reasoning is that a womans purse is private, like a mans wallet, how many of us would go through our guys wallet?I appreciate my husbands respect for my property, There isn't anything in there I wouldn't want him to see, but what I carry in my purse as I said before is an extension of me.Every woman's purse and it's contents are different, sometimes cosmetics, money, checkbook, and pictures of loved ones. and sometimes things we don't want others to see, something as simple as anxiety medication, or in my case, ostomy supplies, something which is very private, but that I need to carry with me.In my opinion, a purse is like a diary, often the contents, are just something we don't want anyone to see. A place we feel safe to put the things we don't want to share.I have seen some women get psychotic when someone else goes through their purse. My mom keeps everything but the kitchen sink in hers and I just have the basics and even at that, it's not a lot. I tend to stick to the smaller purses. I don't like the idea of toting a suitcase on my shoulder. But with all that said, it doesn't really bother me if someone goes through it. I mean, if I says it's okay, I really mean it's okay.
I love bags/purses! But what I keep inside them is really not that interesting.
-pens -post-it notes-cell-keys-lotion-pads if it's that time-wallet-compact mirror-planner sometimes-water bottle-extra contacts and mini solution bottle@jupiter312@xanga - Oh gee, a wad of fucking cotton. Grow up.
@beforedawn@xanga - That was absolutely preposterous, dear Christ.
I don't understand why the hell men are "afraid" of purses or tampons for that matter.
Anyhow, I don't usually carry a purse, but when I do it consists of make-up (mascara, eyeliner, Burt's Bees Wax), Camera, Cell phone, Wallet/Checkbook, keys, and water, sometimes.
@NOTdaGRLnextDR@xanga - ever check our pockets? fear after all is a non understanding of the unknown... its generally an unrealized assumption.. if i dont open my eyes the monster in the closet in the darkness..cant get me.., if i dont open yer purses i wont loose respect for the ladies..quid pro quo like.. or is that bono?
p.s. aint a christ k?
@beforedawn@xanga - Men's pockets don't scare me...
In fact, I've "checked" plenty.
Why the hell would you loose respect for a woman because you opened her purse? It's ordinary, everyday materials. You can walk into Wal-Mart or the Mall and find whatever is in their purse. Most of us aren't as complex as men make us out to be, even the rich, snobby girls. I think they carry simpler things than I do.
&don't take "dear Christ" so literally.
@NOTdaGRLnextDR@xanga - lol yer taking every thing i say just as literal... in the 90's we introduced women onto navy ships.. i can tell ya tales and yes i do know women and ya aint the dainty things you seem to want to put out there (jus check the language you used to post with).a woman ya can smell the perfume on from half a block away is one who hasn't bathed in three weeks.. now if a person wants my respect ...they can damn well earn it jus as i expect you will wish of me
It's no secret what's in my purse: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jessicabuckle/3328310101/
hahaha
I rarely carry a purse, I'm a girl but I dislike how they can get in the way. Normally, I carry them when I can't put everything I need in my pockets. Lipgloss for chapped lips, money, a notebook and a pen, and miscellaneous items I may pick up throughout my day. Occasionally, I may also put a small paperback novel in there too.
That's all, mostly. Mysterious? The source of my power? No.
There are man-purses now...again...whatever, you know. Murses, they're called...
Our power is stored within, obviously. Sometimes in various body parts, depending on the girl xD I like to say mine's all stored in my head.
