  I can see you don’t spent much time with women.

  Women aren’t choosing pants with shitty pockets intentionally.

      So we should just not wear pants until however long it takes to happen?

      You’re wrong about why women’s clothes don’t have pockets. Women were never given a choice to buy clothing with pockets.

      Initially, pockets were not accessible in women’s clothing due to the layers they were required to wear. After the suffragette movement when liberated women began to wear pants, designers intentionally kept pockets small to prop up the purse industry.

      Handbags are one of the most profitable items in the fashion industry.

    I’m not in the same boat and don’t claim to be.

    I use a phone with a keyboard attachment and thus my phone is too large to fit many man’s trouser pockets either.

    So now when I shop for trousers, I intentionally check whether my phone fits the pockets and weigh large pockets over looks.

    It would be interesting if there’s at least some women’s trousers with large enough pockets. If there are and women in large numbers actually buy these and reject small-pocket trousers no matter the looks, I think that could get some traction.

    If there’s really not a single pair of trousers with decently sized pockets, then of course that wouldn’t work.

    I would guess (and this is decidedly an uneducated guess based on maybe a dozen or so women I talked with about that topic), many women do dislike small pockets, but dislike bad style, bad fit or bad looks more.

      There are a few companies that go out of their way to make pants for women with pockets. Nothing at any local retailer an it sucks to buy clothes online when you can try them on, especially since women’s sizing is an absolute nightmare.

      I buy men’s work out clothes so I can have pockets when I’m lounging around the house.
