They are already absurdly large. I didn’t notice the size of my phone until I wanted to do simple gestures like going from the bottom to the top most part with my thumb or trying to type with one hand with the keyboard in its original state.
Before it didn’t bother me and I even celebrated it, since the bigger the screen, the bigger the videos and games. But now I realize how annoying it is to use the phone as a… Well, a phone. And it looks like it’s going to get worse with flip phones and other bullshit.
At this rate, “brick” phones are going to come back, and everyone will be “delighted”.
It is true. Women’s pants with big pockets are freely available, just do a Google shopping search and you’ll see. American Eagle, Gap, Abercrombie, Forever 21, Old Navy, H&M, Ann Taylor, Dickies, Patagonia, Levi’s, and the list goes on. All these retailers sell baggy and loose pants with big pockets.
Also worth noting, Y2K fashion is very in with younger people and you’ll see them wearing a lot of baggy pants, I’m talking JNCO baggy.
So why aren’t big-pocketed pants the standard in women’s fashion? It’s simple: women tend to want slimmer pants. It’s just a consumer decision.
It’s not a consumer decision. Women’s clothes are often created very cheaply. Adding pockets costs money. 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 would they not be 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.
Some women want the slimmer pants, yet all the options with pockets are baggy. Yes you need some space for a pocket, but that doesn’t mean the entire entire pant needs to be baggy.
Men’s slim jeans are available with pockets able to accommodate a larger phone with out issue.
