The bag makes the man
Mark goes camping with a long experienced hiker and camper named Diane. Mark admires her knowledge and ability, and loves her jeep. He tells her my plans. She thinks I'm stupid.
I bought the giant backpack. Not the Uber-giant pack, mind you. Just the one to carry all your worldly posessions in. Not the one you can also carry your girlfriend and all her things in. You need the next size up for that.
The night before our first big hike, Mark was on the phone with Diane. He told her about the bag. She asked about this...she asked about that...and in the end, was unable to find fault with my choice. Score one for the home team.
I do not need camping advice from a girl!

hmmm experienced camper girl diane here. i wonder if maybe you mighta thot of eating your words (don't need advice from a girl) as a toasty appetizer for your cold hard ramen noodles on your potosi campout. now on MY last backpack trip down to havasupai falls i had warm and delicious chili wrapped with cheese and fresh avocado in lightly warmed tortillas. oh, and fires weren't allowed. grin. you ought to at least consider advice from a girl on menu options and ways to gourmet snack while roughing it. use that machete to slice brie!
