Discrimination Against Women
 

RE: Carry-on baggage information
Airlines accept one carry-on item of no more than 45 linear inches or 114 linear centimeters in the aircraft cabin, along with one personal item (such as a shoulder or laptop bag).
I. I feel the baggage policy which states: of along with one personal item (such as a shoulder or laptop bag) is a discrimination against women.
1. As a women I need my laptop in a lap-top bag with wheels as a carry-on, because I do not have the muscles to carry it around.
2. Most women need a personal shoulder bag. It is historically public knowledge that most of the women population needs a personal handbag for hygienic reasons, (referred to as monthly menstruation), or bladder incontinence. The airlines can control the size if they want.
3. Most women need a Carry-on item in the aircraft cabin as a substituted for checked baggage as women also have the problem of needing more clothing toiletries, shoes etc. than men.
Therefore I have to make a choice between my handbag and my computer. What else will they take away from the travelers?

Need = something required, necessary or an obligation

Want = something desired or wished for

A few tampons or femimine hygiene items would fit in any laptop bag. Men also experience urinary incontinence. That takes care of the need.

The rest of your post refers to wants. If you want more than others, you have to pay for it. It is the opposite of discrimination, it is equal treatment.

Place laptop in carry on bag, problem solved, or get a tablet.
