It’s just a handy place to put my phone down for a second. Or stash a pen or a credit card.

    My wife and I have a theory that the patriarchy removed useful pockets so women need to buy an external pocket in the form of purses.

      That doesn’t require the patriarchy, just the fashion industry in general trying to sell as much as possible. Adding an entirely different and otherwise unnecessary article of clothing is a brilliant idea honestly.

        My wife routinely makes me remove car keys or other bulkier things from my pocket because they “make me look bigger”.

        I love my wife dearly I really do. But she deserved having to put things in her bra. Maybe I should start putting my car keys in the front of my underwear. As a fashion statement.
