The Halifax email sounds like a joke. Most men carry bags over their shoulders to put work things in and just to carry things about, the word "man bag" makes it sound like a handbag, which I don't think it is.

As far as I'm aware a "man bag" is a specific type of bag as apposed to other types of bag - rucksack for example.

I thought manbags were those overgrown wallet things with a loop to go round the wrist. Is that not the case (no pun intended) ?
