Therefore cheap (see slimmer clothes) are created without pockets, even if women would wear them with pockets. Your own explanation actually agrees with that by stating it’s tied to the looseness of the pants. You can’t get the look on baggy pants without actually putting the pockets there. If they could they would.

All clothes can be created cheaply or expensively, for any gender. Men wear skinny jeans too, just like some wear baggy jeans.
If women want pants with bigger pockets, why are they not being produced? The majority of fashion designers are women.
My girlfriend only wears pants with big pockets. You know why? Because she wants to, and they’re available. Same with lots of other women I know.
This isn’t some patriarchal conspiracy to keep women sexy or sell purses and handbags. It’s just what most of the consumers want, and I don’t know why it’s so hard for people to accept that.
