Advantages: For a man - doesnt take long to pack, Woman - never wish you had remembered to take something

Disadvantages: Woman - Long arms

1)Clothes
Men - At least a couple of changes of clothes for the fortnight and something smart (ish)
Women - At least a couple of changes of clothes for the first few hours. Clothes in case it's rainy, clothes in case you go somewhere posh, clothes in case it's cold, etc.etc
2)Contraception
Men - Condoms - Self explanatory
Women - Condoms - for safe sex, pill to avoid pregnancy (better to be doubly safe), pregnancy tester (just to be sure)
3) Swimwear
Men - 2 pairs trunks, 1 to use and 1 to dry out.
Women - 3 bikinis, 3 swimsuits, sarong, bathrobes, sandals, etc etc.
4) Nail maintenance
Men - Nail clippers to keep those toes and fingers looking good.
Women - Full manicure kit, scissors, nail polish, nail polish remover etc.
5)Shoes
Men - Trainers 1 pair, they can double up as fly repellant on the balcony at night
Women - Casual shoes, smart shoes, everyday shoes, sandals, flip flops for the pool etc. etc.
6)Laundry items
Men - What??
Women - Travel iron of course, a small packet of washing powder in case you are allergic to local stuff, something that you can soak things in to remove stains, stain removing stick in case its not too bad, etc.etc
7)Personal hygiene
Men - At least 1 deoderant and a bottle of aftershave for the ladies!!
Women - Deoderants (selection), perfumes (bigger selection), sanitory towels, tampons for bikinis / swimsuits, immac hair removal kit, tweasers (essential?), make-up (this accounts for the first suitcase) etc.
8) Haircare
Men - comb
Women - Hairbrushes, tongs, hairdryer, hairspray, selection of hair colourants, hair wax, glitter etc..


Items 9 and 10 are up to you. I look forward to seeing some suggestions.

Anyway the answer to the question is simple. The woman obviously needs two large suitcases because she has so much gear to take with her. The man needs a large toiilet bag for his stuff but has to take a small su
itcase so that the overspill from the womans luggage is not left behind!!!!!

LOL, I took my g/f away for a long weekend. I took one bag, you know, the type that goes on your back. She took two that go on your back and a suitcase! She then filled the caravan wardrobe when we got there! i was carrying the duvet covers in my bag aswell!
