Backpacks - a female invention?

The backpack is probably the most practical piece of luggage ever invented by man. Or more likely woman, who probably devised the first one to lug babies around in. Consider the advantages of a backpack:
· It leaves your hands free so you can fumble around for your tickets and passport more easily.
· It usually has neat little pockets that are ideal for hiding dirty socks.
· It can often pass the carry-on-luggage test at airports.
· And you don't have to put it down on wet dirty floors whenever (and however) nature calls
