    Not sure how this is any different than buying any of the branded fashion bags. Those offer no special or unique functionality, just a name and maybe a specific material design.

      I was so confused when my coworkers were talking about some hard to get tote bag and when they finally brought one in it just looked like a regular cheap tote bag but apparently it was expensive for unknown reasons

      It’s not.

      When something is marked up and marketed specifically to men, it’s proof how insecure men are.

      When something is marked up and marketed specifically to women, then women are victims and we call it the pink tax.
