    To keep their hands free. Men do it as well.

  • I've very rarely ever seen men carrying shopping baskets in the crook of their arms. Most male shoppers hold the shopping basket in their hand with their arm extended downward.

    I have done it, although I prefer to use a wheeled cart, and I've seen other men do it.

    It keeps their hands free for talking.

  • "It keeps their hands free for talking."

    Sign language?

    Um... haven't you noticed that when a woman talks, she invariably waves her hands around?

    You might want to set your shopping basket down first.

    Maybe because they are not into surfing - a surfer would know to always keep  their  center of gravity  low.  Cheers and happy weekend

    No idea.  I rarely use that small basket but I would not put in on my arm.  I carry it with my hand.

      You might want to consider abandoning what seems to be the anti-woman slant in your series of some of your questions, dude!  Lol.

  • I don't have an anti-woman slant in some of my questions as you perceive.
