When you think of computers, you don’t usually think of them in gendered terms – a woman’s computer or a man’s computer. Computers are generally built for both genders. But, when it comes to computer bags, there are two types – bags for everyone and bags that are made primarily for women. If asked how to describe computer bags for women, you might be hard pressed to say anything other than that they are “pink”, but it is much more than that.

First of all, computer bags for women sometimes perform another function than just holding a computer safely in place. Computer backpacks that are used by women sometimes cross over into being purses as well. No woman wants to have a purse and another bag slung over her shoulder all day long, so a computer bag that is used by a woman usually has many more pockets to be used for things that would normally be held in her purse.

These computer bags would have a completely separate section, separated by a waterproof barrier so that she could hold cosmetics, gum, her wallet, and all the other things she usually carries without fear that something might break open and damage the fragile electronic gear on the other side of the barrier.

Computer bags for women often have much smaller handles so that they fit in the sometimes smaller hands of women. These handles, although smaller, are as sturdy and as strong as the larger handles, but feel better in a woman’s hand and she can hold on to it more securely.

But, probably the most significant difference in computer bags for women from those that are designed for men or just the general public is that they come in all kinds of fun designs and colors. You can now find computer bags in colors other than basic, boring black. There are computer bags in pink, in printed materials, covered in flowers, or even with your band’s favorite insignia. You can get computer bags with your university’s emblem embroidered on the side, or even your own initials.
