The corollary to women's clothes have no pocket is that women have purses, which are often large enough to hold a bigger phone.


There are women's clothes with pockets, they're just harder to find which I why I set up https://www.pocketsforwomen.co.uk to help with that.

I almost garroted myself attempting to supervise a toddler on soft play with a handbag, so I'm not a fan


Someone already managed to downvote you, shame on them. Thank you for what you're doing.


Thanks!


Well, don't you find this situation quite sexist?

I'm not a woman, but I know many who 1. refuse to carry a purse; 2. are deeply unsatisfied with trends in clothing such as small pockets (and no they can't just wear men's clothes because women's bodies are shaped differently); 3. whose hands are too small to comfortably use a large (branded as "normal") or even medium (branded as "mini") phone.

There's a billion other ways women are being discriminated against every day. But yeah, it doesn't sell.
