Somewhere in my head I thought I posted this yesterday. The lack of pockets in womens clothing is a bit of her pet peeve I believe and can’t say I blame her. I have oftentimes gotten one piece of clothing over another due to pockets.

    didn’t mean to say it’s an issue that affects one gender.

    it affects everyone, some effects are gender specific. it’s generally very toxic and sucks for everyone.

    I hate when my daughters hand me stuff to carry because they don’t have pockets (I’ll carry anything for them), and I always try to get them clothes with pockets.

      I didn’t think you were lol, I just meant within the context of legwear/purses, that selling an extra thing to one gender at the expense of a feature in another product seems like it would make more sense if you did it for 100% of the pocketed-clothing market, rather than focusing on 50% of the potential customers.

      But then, such is marketing and human behavior.

      (I’ll carry anything for them), and I always try to get them clothes with pockets.

      Good on you! You sound like a good parent.
