Negatives:
  • Oftentimes, if I carry the same amount of heavy stuff in a messenger bag, it feels heavier and causes more lower back pain than if I carried it all in a backpack since the weight isn't distributed as easily. How do bike messengers do it?
  • Forget about keeping that white shirt clean.

Positives:
  • Ah, I'm so glad messenger bags became trendy. There's nothing quite like the sight of a Grrl's breasts accentuated by the strap of the bag between them.
  • Messenger Bags are more convenient and accessible than backpacks.
