<human>: it's always been a peculiar practice of mine not ever to hold a girlfriend's purse for any period of time spanning more than a few seconds. yesterday, as we were leaving coachella, my current girlfriend had to use the bathroom. we make our way over to the festering portojohns (by then overflowing with gross ass people's gross ass feces) when confrontation strikes.. i don't have to go, so i post up, leaning on a fence by the restroom exits. she then takes off her purse and asks me to hold it. i take it from her and place it on the ground guarded between my legs, which she sees and then insists that, "no. (i) actually hold it." carelessly, i turn around and tell her to put it in my back pack, but this didn't fly. i don't recall exactly what she said (drugs, alcohol) but i'm sure it was something along the lines of, "(that you refuse to physically hold a purse) is so egotistical/chauvinistic/petty/childish/etc," which, it seems, it might well be. regardless, what are your thoughts, reddit?

Can you give me a shortened version of the text?
<bot>: for whatever reason, i find it emasculating and do not want to be 'that guy' standing outside the restroom with his girlfriend's designer purse dressed daintily over his shoulder. is that okay?
