Shopping, Psychoanalysis and Man Chairs


"Man chair" - defined by Urban Dictionary as "the chair that men sit in while their partner is shopping for long periods of time. They can be found in almost any clothing or shoe store." Right, so what if a woman goes shopping with men who want to buy a suit? I don't know. There aren't any woman chairs so I had to try some cross-dressing in order to survive that odyssey.


I realized an important thing: men's bags look really good on women. They might also be more practical than those designed for women but I don't know that for sure because, naturally, I didn't buy any.



Hat is a phallic symbol (at least in a freudian dream) so a woman's hat doesn't really make sense. A woman wearing a hat could be considered as a strong evidence of penis envy, so no thanks!



A blazer is what makes a gentleman. I hope that any gentleman who buys this particular blazer will never see this picture as it might make him feel emasculated. The fear of a woman looking good in man's blazer is the same as the fear of castration.



What's the future of unisex? Should I wear more men's clothes?



Should there be more woman chairs in shops and more man chairs in buses?

I always shop alone!

I very often (though not always) shop alone. I'm a lonely wolf of shopping. When I have a mission - e.g. to buy a bag, I first do a research:

1. I search style.com to see what's "in"
2. I go from store to store to see what they have
3. I look at my bank account to see what I can afford

If I get pass the 3. step:

4. I go out to the field armed with a camera phone
5. I often don't buy anything but I have lot's of pictures to post on Facebook or wherever


I wanted to buy a bag in the summer but this one was too expensive.



This one was nice. But I didn't buy it!

Step 6: Mission failed!!!!
