Being a woman has its ups and downs. We can bring babies into this world (of course with some help), and we can rocks buns without judgment (sorry, guys. man-buns really shouldn't be a thing). Although that stuff is cool, one of the worst parts of being a woman are pockets in women's clothing. Every time I go somewhere, I have to take a bag or get creative with how I carry my belongings. Sometimes guys with pockets are nice enough to hold your stuff, but it really shouldn't be like that. I'd like to keep my stuff with me, so here are 11 struggles of women's pockets.
1. Some are just for looks.
Nothing is more annoying than trying to put something into your pocket and realizing it is sewn shut. Stupid.
2. Dresses usually don't have any.
What are you supposed to do with everything? Hold it? I'd prefer not to. If you do find a dress with pockets, it's one of the best things in the world.
3. Leggings definitely don't have any.
This one is frustrating, too. Most of the time I put my stuff in the waistband until it starts to move down my leg.
4. They're too shallow to hold phones.
With phones getting bigger, it seems harder and harder trying to fit your phone in them.
5. Your belongings are constantly hanging out of them.
This one goes along with the shallowness. Since they're too shallow, your stuff is like halfway out of your pocket making it easy for things to fall out/get lost.
6. There isn't enough room for your phone, keys, wallet, or anything else you may have.
The back ones are usually just for show, so you have to force everything in the front ones which can be annoying.
7. You can't put your hands in them.
I like to put my hands in my pockets, and sometimes I can't. I feel really uncomfortable when this happens since I don't know what to do with my hands.
8. They bunch up when you first put them on.
Girls pants are generally pretty tight, so you have to awkwardly move your hands to un-bunch your pants. It looks so strange.
9. Back pockets sometimes have buttons.
When this happens, sitting down can be rather uncomfortable since you have something hard pushing on your butt. At the least they're functional.
10. You're forced to carry a bag/your belongings.
Instead of just making functional pockets, we have to carry around a bag or something to hold our things. I really don't want something I have to carry every where. It's annoying.
11. Or you have to get creative with how you carry things.
I've found myself putting items in my bra and even shoes before. It's not comfortable.
