(25,543 posts)63. My first thought as well
I've sat through many a hockey game with my purse dangling from my knee by the strap to avoid placing it on the floor. I never put it on the floor at a restaurant either. It's actually easy to avoid if you carry a purse regularly. Kind of comes naturally to keep it clean and away from access by others.

OP
Most decent restaurants give you a chair to put your bag on or something to hang it on.

Never, never hanging on the back of the chair - way to easy for to get picked off

I have a travel bag that has all kinds of safety features to protect against theft.

I still wonder if the details are jumbled or contrived to deceive the public

Any woman who has lived in a good sized city knows to keep her purse in her lap.

That's the first thing I thought of, too. Putting a purse on the floor is disgusting.
