You don’t like pockets? ... pockets are fabulously seditious things..

I knew all that, still...don't get the desire for pockets on everything, everywhere. As a feminine sign, I get it. As a OMG this has pockets and I am going to tell everyone! I don't get it.
We sew. You don't like the pocket, you fix it. You want a pocket, you add it. If you can't sew...don't buy it or get it altered. But even in men's clothes their pockets are also becoming smaller and less useful, so it's not entirely a woman's sphere now. It's a garment industry is cheap problem overall.
Some of my clothes have pockets, some don't. Some are useful, some aren't. Some I've taken out. I wear a shop coat when I work to put stuff into those pockets because even if my clothes has them, I am not putting sharp, pointy things in them. Same reason I use and apron and those pockets: I don't want the stuff I need from one room to another in my nice clothes.
Without the politics, I don't generally find pockets to be more then a place to shove my hands in when I have to talk to people. Which is rude. I carry an agenda as a wallet and WTF am I going to do now item, which doesn't fit into a pocket on a good day, I don't care for the feeling of a phone on my bum and I really don't need to carry cigarettes in my pocket because I'd likely break my antique cases if I did that. I'm OCD about money, so shoving that in my pocket is not happening, and credit cards have a chip that the lint can damage and make it hard to use...so no, I don't get them really. (To be fair, I don't get men having a wallet the size of a baseball either, or having to sit on it all day, every day and ruining their stuff, too.)
