Well, the cat’s out of the bag: it’s time to figure out what kind of bag you are. You might be thinking, “I’m not a bag at all! I’m a human being,” and I do love that for you, but at the end of the day, what are human beings if not bags of bones, wondering this earth with our possessions in a bag.

Backpack with multiple compartments! Accurate.
same :-)
Thanks for sharing
“You are a cheeky worn-out reusable tote bag”. Fair. I do collect them. On my visit to Shibden Hall last week, what did I get at the gift shop to commemorate standing in the hallways and exploring the house that Anne Lister and Ann Walker once roamed? A tote bag.
it’s a lifestyle
Once more, i need a link to all the lesbian bag possibilities 👀
ALAS no such link exists but i can reveal that potential answers include but are not limited to telfar bag, backpack with multiple components and a tiny femme purse 😎
Intriguing. results=89de2eb0 seems to be having to take this quiz in an endless loop.
if you have a minute to let me know (no stress if not) — which answers are you putting in to get that result? i wanna figure out what’s working wrong
I noticed a different problem Riese –
I couldn’t choose “Professor Marston and the Wonder Women” as the movie. When I tried to click the radio button, a link to the AS review of the movie opened instead.
ok i believe professor marston has been fixed!
1. Coffee and a snadwich
2. North Face
3. No bag related vices
4. Not needing to pay for bags
5. Erewhon
6. Prefer not to drag around the airport
7. Belle
8. Comfy jeans and flannel
9. Carol
Practical backpack with at least six separate compartments? “You feel safest when you have all of your possessions in immediate proximity. You are always prepared! You are the unsung hero of the whole world honestly”
Yeah, and it’s gotten me into trouble. Twice I’ve had to surrender multi-tools to TSA at the airport because I forgot I had it in my purse.
i also feel safest when i have all my possessions in immediate proximity <3
(I also did your answers and got the backpack, so maybe the error was a website error and not the quiz? hopefully?)
I feel so seen:
“you are a worn-out reusable tote bag
You love to support a cause and subscribe to a thing that needs support, which is like supporting a cause. You are low-key and laid back and also on top of the things that really matter, like you can see clearly into the very marrow of life”
I have SO many tote bags and I do love my premium tote bags from donations – including my local public radio station and my “Have a Nice Gay” AS tote bag.
My current fave is a bright green “I heart my park!” tote I got for volunteering at my local park district.
why yes i AM a fanny pack worn as a cross body bag. my entire summer wardrobe revolves around these. i rotate three around based on the occasion. the AS quiz sees right through me as per usual
Usable tote bag – accurate. I have totes stuffed with more bags in my car trunk at all times. I have a tote bag reserve in my office closet as well.
Yes for the Telfar!
“You are unapologetically yourself, effortlessly cool and always ahead of the curve.”
Yoooo I LITERALLY wear a fanny pack as a crossbody bag, you got me!!
Tote bag supremacy!!
