    Pink Handbag Day fast approaches.

    Right you lovely people.

    PHD is in Aug.

    I have one very sensible question of you all:

    HOW THE HELL DO I EXPLAIN IT TO MY MUM?

    I mean...how on earth does a son, now a father, explain the principles of an online phenomenon, when I am not even SURE if I spelled phenomenon correctly?

    I am proud of it, but I need help: Please define in this thread, just what Pink Handbag Day means to you and why it's critical to the world.

    I shall begin with this:

    I am confident in my masculinity, and my recent fatherhood-ness-kinda-arrival bears testiment to my blokeyness.

    And therefore....I shall proudly display a Pink Handbag on PHD

    Does that do it?

    I'll have my PH on PHD'07 as I have done since PHD started.

    you can't...not if youre a real bloke.

    PHD is to prove you're happy with your sexuality and your manly-ness.

    Chill guys, it's only an online thing... unless you're brave enough.

    Search PHD on the forums, you'll find the last 2-3 years of them.... you'll get the gist.

    ANd Zakky's right. If you don't embrace PHD then you cannot call yourself a real man.

    http://forums.hexus.net/showthread.p...nk+handbag+day for reference... It's got a sorta community thing about it. Put 10p in a charity pot for PHD.
