Both genders claim that theirs has cornered the market on sense and practicality, and this debate will surely continue forever. However, one practical accessory that often bemuses men and that many women would never dream of leaving home without is the purse.

Even though many modern men shun the idea of carrying a purse, it was not long ago, relatively speaking, that men kept their purses with them as well.
