Designer Handbags, a Symbol of Female’s Power
Have you ever thought of a handbag as a symbol of female power and authority? Of course everyone is different so a purse for one person may mean something totally different and unique for another but let’s look at Designer Handbags from a different perspective. Have you ever noticed that the press of England has spent time and effort speculating and commenting on ex-Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher’s designer handbag? To quote “The Times” in June, 1982 written by Julian Critchley, “She…tends to believe the worst of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office. She cannot see an institution without hitting it with her handbag…” It’s obvious that the press equates Margaret Thatcher’s designer handbag with her assertion of power and the ability to impose her will. If you look closely, you will notice that her handbags closely resemble the Queen Mother’s handbags. Is is because both of these powerful women choose the same type of bag or is Ex-Prime Minister Thatcher deliberately mimicking this female symbol of ultimate authority in her country? Negotiations are underway for the famous handbag to be placed in a museum that houses Winston Churchill’s papers and historical documents from the War. There is no indication that Mr. Churchill’s wallet is stored in this prestigious collection but, then again, Margaret Thatcher was the first woman to impose her powerful presense (and pocketbook!) on 10 Downing Street! Designer handbags have been one of the necessities of life for women ever since recorded history began. It was important to have the items that one used often close at hand and articles found in a purse have ranged from ornate sewing scissors (17th century) to todays mandatory cell phone and credit cards. To some extent, they gradually became women’s symbol of identity and power. Why is it that women carry their belongings around and men just have their wallets? My opinion is that the need to carry something to hold goods is a fundamental need rooted in the biology of females. Who is the main caregiver of the family from prehistory to the present? Yes, I know that traditional roles are gradually evolving but what person in the “traditional” family is the most responsible for taking care of everyone? In most cases, it is the woman who gets people organized and make sure everyone has what ever they need. Biologically speaking, the female of our species takes care of her offspring and makes sure that all needs will be taken care of once the home is left. I believe that this has evolved into women carrying all that they need and what everyone else could possibly want in their designer handbags. To illustrate – when you go out with a male friend do you ask him for tissues, pen, or paper? No – you ask another female. Another nuturer is more likely to have some basic necessities than a male. Am I saying that there is a basic “purse carrying” gene? No – what I am saying is that, biologically speaking, females are the caregivers of the world and have always had this role thrust upon them since the beginning of Homo sapiens. It is our destiny and power(both physically and psychiologically) to make sure that the world is in order. We can’t handle the entire planet but we do out best to organize our own particular sphere! Our “caregiving” instincts are biologically attuned to others and, if we fight this destiny, there is a feeling of things not being “quite right” around us. So enjoy carrying your Fashion Handbags and know that you are making our global community a better place for all! Go Topons, you will find the most creative and stylish designer Evening Bag.
