Shhh don't you know it's one of the main reasons they keep us around. To carry stuff that would not be pretty in their tighter cut jeans.

It depends where you buy your jeans. I recall when womens jeans had the zipper on the side.

On a related note, why do womens blouses button on the left side and men on the right??

Cause they carry purses?

So their maids can more easily button it for them (assuming they are right handed).

You have to ask? I prefer girls pockets painted on, utility is secondary. Their jeans are used for a billboard, not for a tactical stash of goodies.

To annoy me. Sometimes I just want to carry my knife, keys, ID, and some cash, but nooooo...

If it won't matter in 5 years don't give it more than 5 minutes.

Welllll... Might still want some tickling if their pockets allow. Only thing my wife puts in her back pocket is her phone. I'm with the thought it's just the man keeping himself relevant as a woman's keepsake courier.

Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown

Because the powerful Purse Lobby owns Congress. We need a march or something.

When pockets are sold as $$$ designer accessory add-ons with "MK" & " LV" logos, we'll see more of them.

It's worked for Harley-Davidson and it's worked for the AR rifle industry.

I remember back in the 90’s when I used to go to country western clubs women wore a popular pair of jeans (I can’t recall name) but they were tight as hell and had no back pockets. We praised the person who invented those. Big Grin

My understanding is this goes back to the time when men carried swords on their left hip. Hence they could unbutton their outer garment to access their sword.

Now why womens cloths button the other way, is the other posters suggestion about the womens helper to dress her might be correct?
