What's Up With That??

I've always had the burning question in my mind.....Whats up with women and the new trend of completely HUGE purses?? I mean whats the reason for them. I was talking to a close friend of mine who is a woman (Anna), and she says the reason is that women have alot of things to put in there. I mean yea I understand that because women do carry lots of stuff but I mean if thats the case you mind as well just get a little sports bag from Footlocker or something thats 10 dollars compared to spending over 100 bucks for something to just hold your things. I mean wouldnt that just make thieves wanna take things from you?? I mean even though you dont have a lot of money there is still motivation to get mugged or worse because of your highly expensive bag that they can still pawn and still get a good piece of change for it. Well I truly hope that this is just a trend and women go back down to the medium sized purses for their safety and just because its really useless to have a super large bag like that.....meditate on that one!!!!
