Question: What is a Pakistani suitcase?

Answer: (in Denmark) A Pakistani suitcase is defined as a plastic bag full of clothes.

Background: Early in the 1970s when the first Pakistani immigrants arrived in Denmark, alot of them used to transport their clothes and laundry around in plastic bags from super markets. This is how the name came to be. The Danish name is "Pakistaner kuffert". The term is often used at the gym about people who bring their gym clothes in a plastic bag, instead of using a gym bag.
