Gay, Trendy, Weeaboo, call it what you want, but get ready to be labeled almost all of these.
[QUOTE=BANNED USER;20752309]Gay, Trendy, Weeaboo, call it what you want, but get ready to be labeled almost all of these.[/QUOTE] Don't care about the label, but just don't want to be seen as a homosexual. (Mind you, I'm 100% straight)
Some can look cool, others can look bad.

Homosexuality is pretty much based on a person's character and personality. What most people are saying here are just basing assumptions on something that slightly looks like a purse, which is a pretty stupid thing to do.
Many people are immature and see the Messenger bag as something similar to a purse (Even though it's just a bag.)

Why should you give a fuck about people and their stereotypes?
I don't know about you, but I find the messenger bag to be uncomfortable next to a backpack.
It's isn't gay if you also buy a brown leather jacket, a brown fedora, study archeology, act grumpy constantly, get some beard stubble, and go on some adventures that don't include a crystal skull. In all honesty I want one now.
I see it as pointless fashion statement which rarely works as intended. Backpacks carry loads much more efficiently than single shoulder bags.
Depends on the bag, really. Gay: [img_thumb]http://initiallyimpressed.com/images/thumbnails/BellaPinkMessengerbag.jpg[/img_thumb] Not Gay: [img_thumb]http://www.thinkgeek.com/images/products/zoom/aaa5_bagofholding.jpg[/img_thumb]

Can you have a "I don't really care" option?
[QUOTE=killiam;20752851]Can you have a "I don't really care" option?[/QUOTE] Yeah, I should. Too bad you can't change it. I guess it's other.
If Jack Bauer can use one, so can I. [img]http://images.teamsugar.com/files/usr/1/15111/jack%20bauer%202.jpg[/img]
I think the ones meant as fashion statements are gay and the ones that are actually meant to carry things aren't
How are they gay?

It depends if your gonna use it to carry stuff, or just to "look cool". Now if It's used to look cool then it's gay no matter what it looks like.
Don't use them, don't really think they are "cool" or "gay". They're good if you need to use them for whatever reason.
[QUOTE=RaptorRed;20752334]Some can look cool, others can look bad.[/QUOTE] this. but i don't generally think they look good
most look homo, and gays at my school typically use them. So i guess it [i]kinda[/i] depends
