調查：超半數男性出門拿手提包

時代不同了，包包不再是女人的專利。英國一項調查發現，有超半數的男性現在出門會帶包，不過是男式包包，包內物品價值至少爲900英鎊。

這些日漸時尚的男式包包向世界宣告都市型男時代的到來。

通常一名男士的包包內裝有智能手機、筆記本、平板電腦、眼鏡和數碼照相機。有些人還會在包包裏放牙刷、鬚後水甚至備用內褲。

調查顯示，出門帶包的男性有三分之二會把錢包放在手提包裏而不是衣服口袋裏，因爲擔心錢包被偷。

11%的男性帶包是爲了讓自己顯得時尚，7%的男性帶包是因爲自己的伴侶抱怨出門要替他們背東西。

Handbags are no longer seen as a female-only accessory after a survey found men are choosing to carry around a "man bag", often containing contents worth £900.

They are seen on the arms of David Beckham and Kanye West, often viewed as an example of the ‘metrosexual man.’

But now more men are adopting the handbag, and are using them to carry around almost £1,000 worth of ‘essentials.’

Men are catching up with women, who now transport around £1,209 worth of items, as they adopt ‘man bags’ to make a fashion statement or keep their wallets safe.

The average ‘man bag’ contains items worth around £880, a survey has revealed. The main items men carry are smartphones, laptops, tablets, glasses and digital cameras. Some also decide to pack a toothbrush, aftershave and even spare underwear.

The survey revealed more than half of men now carry around a bag and two thirds are concerned about security and carry their wallet safely in a bag rather than their pocket.

One in nine (11 percent) said having a bag is more of a fashion statement, while one in 14 (seven percent) started carrying a bag because their partner complained about being asked to carry extra items in their already over-laden handbags.

The survey of 2,000 men revealed one in ten percent pack spare underwear in their bags.

Anita Naik, consumer editor of , who carried out the survey, said: "The research shows men are starting to embrace the manbag and recognise the practical benefits of carrying everything in one place, especially with expensive tech to carry around every day.”

The average contents of a woman’s handbag were recently found to cost £1,209.99 in a survey by John Lewis.
