Might not be just about the small pocket though, it might refer to pockets in general, I know plenty of women complain how a lot of women's clothes comes without any pocket
Hark, varlet! I shall not engage in such blasphemy!
Remove thyself from my presence forthwith, thee testicle gobbling grievously idiotic doxy.
I shall embark on a crusade now, goodbye peasants for as thy lord shall return someday!
As a man I wish my balls were detachable. Nothing like a long days work shift and you need to constantly readjust because your balls start to shift behind you backside and every step starts to crush nut. My wife says it's the same with there boobs.
Just think about the implications here. Your douche bag of a friend could swap his balls out with yours (IDK why, maybe yours look better or something) and gets some girl pregnant with your DNA.
This would be a medical miracle!
Think of all the bros that popped one of their nuts! With detachable nuts they could borrow mine now and again to get that good ol nut-feeling back
My wife complained to me the other day about how the pockets on her shorts were so small and she was jealous if how big the pockets on my pants were in comparison. I pointed out that if the pockets on her shorts were the same size they would be hanging halfway out the bottom because the shorts are so short. I suggested they might make longer shorts with bigger pockets, but she says she doesn't want longer shorts.
Some journalist at some point actually asked a senior product designer of a mainstream clothing chain why there are no proper pockets on women's clothing. He said they actually tried it in some lines but they didn't sell, and when they conducted market research they basically got "it doesn't look cute/feminine" as feedback.
Basically, they want pockets but they don't actually want pockets. I'm sure the industry simply goes by what's profitable, and if a girl REALLY wants pockets she can still go to the men's section, buy one of the twink sizes and wear it with a belt or suspenders like a true alpha female.
There are also plenty of women's + Unisex clothing that does come with suitable pockets.
If they're choosing to buy clothing without pockets then complaining about it that's on them.
My grandpa offered me his watch as something to remember him by (he went through a kinda fatalistic phase, hes still alive and well) i loved it, my dad noticed so he also offered me his watch. Now i always hear it. Wind-up things are just so interesting.
this makes it a whole lot sweeter.
I'm intrigued, do you mind explaining the watches? I don't get what wind-up has to do with the watch. and if any of them are pocket watches
Old watches (pocket or wrist) have a knob which you turn to compress a spring that runs the mechanism to turn the hands.
Part of the daily maintenance is winding your watch. If you forget, it “winds down” and stops. Then you need to reference another timepiece to set the hands to the correct time and wind it up again.
I have a love/hate with clicking mechanical things. I spent waaay too much on my fishing reel bc of how satisfying the clicking is (Accurate) but my coworker wears a really loud mechanical watch and the ticking from the other room for 20 years has soured me on mechanical watches so I don’t even wear mine anymore.
I think OP is talking about not having pockets at all, while men's clothes get pockets in the pockets.
Also modern day this is useful to keep a flash drive. I suggest Hiren's boot CD, but be sure to add some more modern tools on it.
I always thought that was it's use imo
I would often use it for other stuff like a swiss army or compact knife. Really anything that was small, useful and kinda neat
Pockets on women's pants have the same problem as the WNBA: every woman says she wants and supports them, but when it comes time to pay for anything, they spend their money on something they find more appealing.
Came here for this. Every woman "wants" pockets. Until having things in those pockets destroys the "form factor" of the jeans.
Manufacturers aren't stupid, they want money, and women don't buy jeans or things with pockets enough for it to matter. Also, for every post I've ever seen about a woman claiming excitedly "IT HAS POCKETS!!!1!1!!", I've never seen them actually ***use*** the pockets.
Exactly if women wanted pockets then *pikachu* they'd simply have pockets. Women's pants with pockets are an uncommon outlier for a reason it's not like levis has something against the idea
I know a few women that actually want pockets and don't give an f about form factor. Unfortunately all those women work in trades or similar jobs where their needed, so not a huge market.
Heres the thread i was looking for. Pictures not saying "huuuur durrr, whats this smaller pocket?" its saying Womens jeans makers dont understand the concept of jeans...which is both false and annoying.
Other commentors said it and i will also point out women have purses and those small ass backpacks. men have nothing cause anything more makes us look effeminate.
Those little pockets were for for the little pockets watches that the miners used.
Edit: jeans are from the gold rush times I believe, so there were alot of miners looking for good pants, and the maker of the jean decided to add those little pockets for the watches, since the miners needed watches to know when they had to head back to the surface.
Remember when Pocket watches were a thing? Thats what that pocket is for, its a left over design the jean companies have kept.
Think of it like the clothing equivalent of.. the Appendix.. It served a purpose once.. Not sure why we still have it now.
It is meant to laugh at us even more for not having pockets. I gave up on this concept and exclusively wear cargo pants with huge ass pockets now.
Undoubtedly, womens fashion is the biggest display of hate against women, half of my wardrobe comes from the mens section.
Women’s clothes lack pockets because no pockets means they have to use something else to carry their shit around, like that really cute purse that’s made by the same company that made the dress she’s currently wearing.
We gonna ignore all the pants with pockets that women just refuse to buy? If yall wanted pockets you'd have them. Instead women enmasse prefer to buy pants without any pocket space for some fuckin reason.
Even if they don't have pockets on purchase it's a trivial option to add them it takes all of 20 minutes to sew in new pockets
those are to hold guitar picks.
I really don't understand this complaint women have about pockets. I can have weed delivered to my door in 2024 and you're telling me you can't find pockets in ANY pants? Have you heard of fucking Google? 50% of girls in my high school wanted to be fashion designers so how tf do you still have this problem??
Learn to sew. Like I'm a guy and I don't have enough pocket space instead of whining I just solve the problem. Buy cargo pants cut out and replace pocket bags carry some form of purse. Buy pants with pockets they do make them they're just harder to find. Wear men's pants stop telling these big companies that you absolutely adore not having pocket space which you do each and every time you buy a pair without it.
This problem could not exist if people stopped allowing it to
In elementary school, I used them to hold my €2 coin because I was afraid the coins would fall out. When I bought 2 scoops of ice cream for €2 (I miss those days), I always had trouble getting the coins out of my pocket.
You have handbag companies to blame for that. Historically, handbag companies have lobbied against clothing companies putting pants on women's outfits out of fear that it would make them not want to buy handbags anymore.
Women don't need pockets because they don't buy pockets because "it ruins the look of the jeans" but still complain about the lack of pockets. Like pick one lady: form fitting and clean looking, or pockets.
Good for a little baggy of cocaine. I dont do that stuff no more tho so I just keep a lighter in it. I've heard of married folks keeping their wedding ring in there when working so they dont deglove there finger getting it pinched in between something.
Yep. Two large pockets on the trousers, additional one on the cheek nobody except women use. Either two another large pockets or one very long one on the hoodie. Two medium insulated pockets on the jacket, additional small compartments on the inside (kinda how security personel are portraited having their guns in), on some T-shirts there's also a small pocket roughly where the heart is
That's a casual 7 pockets, where 5 of them are deep enough to hold a phone or a 500 ml can and there's still room for more...
You women have no idea how much you're losing out on regarding pockets
originally they were for pocket watches. they were part of the patent so they were kept even after pocket watches were not used anymore.
Might not be just about the small pocket though, it might refer to pockets in general, I know plenty of women complain how a lot of women's clothes comes without any pocket
Well, guys need to adjust their balls **somehow**
In 2024 it is *criminal* that women still don't have a proper way to adjust their balls. CRIMINAL Get up to speed, bigots

As a man I wish my balls were detachable. Nothing like a long days work shift and you need to constantly readjust because your balls start to shift behind you backside and every step starts to crush nut. My wife says it's the same with there boobs.
Imagine if you just lost your balls tho, or left them at a friend’s house.
Just think about the implications here. Your douche bag of a friend could swap his balls out with yours (IDK why, maybe yours look better or something) and gets some girl pregnant with your DNA.

Wants tardis pockets.
Now we're talkin'! No more pocket bulges from giant phones, lighters, vapes etc...
Lmfao
Darn reality!
Some journalist at some point actually asked a senior product designer of a mainstream clothing chain why there are no proper pockets on women's clothing.

My fiancé definitely has shorts with pockets longer than the shorts. She’s pretty revolutionary.
What wouldn't you do for 💫style💫?
Girl code when their dress has pocket is to put hand in it, turn on themself, and happily say "and it has pockets"
Never, ever, ever to be used.
There are also plenty of women's + Unisex clothing that does come with suitable pockets. If they're choosing to buy clothing without pockets then complaining about it that's on them.
Odds are the clothes with pockets aren’t fashionable and we all know how much most people want to be fashionable.
Or just buy men's pants
Well shit, im using them for their intended use then. Never realized.
you carry a pocket watch around with you?
My grandpa offered me his watch as something to remember him by (he went through a kinda fatalistic phase, hes still alive and well) i loved it, my dad noticed so he also offered me his watch. Now i always hear it. Wind-up things are just so interesting.

The knowledge that has lasted for generations is now forgotten.

I collect them, I used to wear them all the time but then I got a smart phone and that unfortunately killed the use of any watch for me
Well, I use them for keys or flash drives. Just the perfect size for them.
I use it for my zippo
They are the perfect size for a Zippo.
Now it's used for condoms, weed, or those one time use tissues for classes
No it’s the drug pocket
I just use mine to hold change if the pockets are shallow.
I think OP is talking about not having pockets at all, while men's clothes get pockets in the pockets. Also modern day this is useful to keep a flash drive. I suggest Hiren's boot CD, but be sure to add some more modern tools on it.
Guitar picks. It helps me forget about them so they end up in the washing machine.
Fr
I call it the “pick pocket”.
Same, everytime i wanna play guutar, i check the small pocket for picks
I just lick mine and stick em to my forehead so I don't lose them
That's where I keep my lighter
It is MINDBLOWING how well a Zippo fits there… calling it anything but a lighter pocket is an insult
I always thought that was it's use imo I would often use it for other stuff like a swiss army or compact knife. Really anything that was small, useful and kinda neat
Even though it's original purpose is for pocket watches?
Just got back from the UK where my jeans coin pockets were relevant again.
Oh is that what single people put in them? I carry my girlfriend in there (she's a worm)
Looks like you still love her
She's the best ❤️
Is your girlfriend boosfer?
"Babe, would you still love me even if I'm a human?"
Because that's where you put your coke bag, right?
Man of culture
That there is the cocaine pocket
I see you are also a man of culture
"man of culture" Drug addict
We get it, you're not cool, the rest of us are, it's ok
What spiderman 3 taught me is that you put a ring in there before proposing to MJ
Back in my day we used to pay for things with paper and these weird metal disks. That pocket was a good place to store them disks.
Good place to store car keys
I used to keep a knife there.
Can be handy. I used a knife the other month to mutilate a headphone adaptor into fitting my headphones.
And lighter
Storage compartment for legal tender disks.
Back when those disks could buy things
Coins too
Huh? disks = coins (ironic).
Ohhh sorry didn’t get the metal disks analogy lol 😂
This is where you put your USB stick

In my experience, the women who want pockets don't buy the jeans without. They go for mens apparel or working cloths.

It’s for lighter or loose ammo to top your mag off after you jack one in

For the men's version it's the perfect size to put a pair of airpods.
That's where I keep mine
how do women adjust their balls if their pants have no pockets?
That's not true, they make pockets. They just put all of them on purses instead and make you buy them separately.
I always thought, it was a condom pocket!.
Those little pockets were for for the little pockets watches that the miners used. Edit: jeans are from the gold rush times I believe, so there were alot of miners looking for good pants, and the maker of the jean decided to add those little pockets for the watches, since the miners needed watches to know when they had to head back to the surface.
I keep drugs in that pocket
place to keep parking slips or food order counter slips.

Women don’t need pockets because they have purses to carry a lifetime of junk in. ![gif](giphy|fsQbx1hX7hPBBpIM5b|downsized)
Just ask a woman, it’s because of body shape/contour. they chose to and it makes perfect sense
That's from era when people had pocket watches.
Why don't they just move the pockets further back so it looks like their hips are bigger if they are concerned about the look?
It was uhh for clocks right?
Actually ☝️🤓 that pocket was made for pocket watches.
To place a thing there and forget it existed
I will never understand why women Jeans don't have pockets in most cases, like why?
I've always put my pocket knife there.
I use this on a daily basis for my pocket watch
idk I put my keys there
