11 Struggles Of Women's Pockets

Most of the time they're not even functional.

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.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
