Why do Women always have to consult the purse at a checkout?

    Never ventured much in here either but I tried to have this question answered elsewhere (you know where) and they refused to comment.

    Why is it alot of women always (in my experience), without fail, have to check the purse at a checkout? Yah see it kind of annoys men who are queuing up too. Once I enter a queue, maybe 5 or 6 people long, for the checkout I know from the number of women in the queue just how long extra I will have to spend in the shop. I have worked it out at roughly 2 minutes per woman give or take. It's not all women but it is most of them. The reason is the bloody purse comes out with every one of them and they are routing around looking for change or money throwing things out of the purse etc generally in a flustered way.

    Here is a novel idea - have the change and money out of the purse either before you go out or while you are in the queue. It saves alot of time. But it never happens. Why does it never happen!? Just one of my pet hates and I am 100% certain a majority of men aswell.

    Does anyone have an explanation?

    You're dead right darkman 2. Why can't the person in question simply have the money in their hand when they get to the checkout? It's not that bloody hard!

    Yeah,not happening here.

    Id suggest reading our charter before posting in here again.
