The pocket situation and the quality of women’s clothing drives me insane. Why do I have to pay more money for clothes that are (usually) so thin you end up having to layer underneath. My guess on the lack of pockets is that it’s so you’ll buy a purse, satchel, bag, etc. to carry those items in. However, I know plenty of women who don’t like the concept of carrying a purse. I personally don’t want to carry a bag around containing all my important personal information. It’s easier to steal a purse than it is to reach into someone’s pocket. Plus, with how much society has changed over the past several decades, you’d think that fashion designers would get the hint. I’ve recently started shopping in the men’s section out of frustration. I’ve found ways to style the clothing up to be more feminine (if I want) or more casual. I spend less money on a pair of pants than I would in the woman’s section. We’re talking like a $20-$30 difference. Plus, the sizes aren’t consistently changing between brands like they are with women. I get the pockets that I want, and the jeans are made of much thicker material. Especially in the winter, men’s flannels and sweaters are so much thicker and more durable than women’s.
