if you were to google 'clutch', all the car informative pages will pop up, tonnes of websites and even more mechanical pictures of 'clutch' being shown. but they all weren't what i had in mind. i meant to google 'clutch bag'.
it was a classic case of gender incoherence when the boys didn't know what we meant when Mel said 'Aaron, can you please help me look for my clutch'. he was so confused and dazed, trying to understand Mel's question and/or request.
the natural thing/image that came to Aaron's mind was of course the 'clutch' that we find in cars, little did he (and in fact most guys) know, tht clutch has another meaning, a feminine side to it's well-known male dominated usage and vocab.
surprise, surprise, a clutch is a bag!
we had a pretty good laugh, over the guys' disbelief and relief that Mel didn't actually ask Aaron to find for her clutch (that's found in cars) (the fact that Mel didn't drive, they were almost convinced that Mel was cuckoo from her graduation joy).
nope, not this baby
imagine the horror when a guy goes on a first date and was told to hold the girl's clutch, with the guy only comprehending it's definition to be a car part. while the girl gets all furious that the guy refuses to do so, the guy will go off thinking the girl is a nut job.
now, that's life drama.
