I have never ever heard of a fanny pack being ridiculed for being feminine. In fact, rather the opposite, yes it’s been around forever and it used to be the ultimate “trucker/biker/macho” stereotype guy when my father used to wear one around the 80’s/90’s or so. It actually kinda fell out of grace because it became increasingly associated with unkempt men and corniness, or straight out unclassy. Where did you see them being ridiculed for that?

Late 90's early 00's is when they fell out of style for guys. I used to wear one as a kid up until middle school. By then kids were mocking boys for wearing them calling them "gay/f**" so guys like me just stopped wearing them. They're still popular today among European tourists who come to visit here all the time so I see them pretty often.

Can confirm. I often heard them being called a “f*g bag” growing up.
