I carried a colorful fabric book bag for years and I took a lot of guff from insecure men on campus who were so uncomfortable with their own masculinity that they felt it necessary to attack me for expressing myself. My bag was less purse-like than this lads, and I did not wear skinny jeans and girl's belts like Skylar does, but for fuck sake, leave this young man alone.
My wife showed me this story today, and I'm conflicted on how I feel about this. I think the school is hoping to avoid having the boy teased, but I say if he's confident carrying the bag, then let him continue to do so. The school has imposed some strict sanctions upon its students. I think the world's skin is getting thinner. Fucking grow a pair, and leave a man's bag alone.

KCTV-5 Wrote:He said he has been carrying the colorful fabric Vera Bradley bag over his shoulder for some time with no issues.
"It expresses myself and I think everyone else can wear it, so I wear it as well," Skylar told KCTV5's Dave Jordan.
He was summoned to Assistant Principal Don Hillard's office after he wouldn't take it off.
"I went to the office and I refused to take it off, and they suspended me," the teen explained.
