The War On Pockets For Women's Clothing

Why are they so small?!

Being a woman, I already go through the daily stress of social standards. But come on, fashion designers, why can't I have bigger pockets while still wearing trendy clothes? Even in boyfriend jeans, the pockets barely fit my tiny iPhone 5! And finding a dress with pockets is practically impossible.

I conducted an experiment to see how much bigger my boyfriend's jean's pocket is compared to mine. In his right front pocket, I was able to put my phone, his iPhone 6s Plus, my Nintendo DS, his wallet, and 3 lighters. In my pocket, I was able to fit my phone and 1 lighter (barely).

This is ridiculous. Pockets being too small cause women to put their belongings in a purse, which is usually too big for our own good. Digging through our purses allow us to lose focus on our surroundings (since we're such large targets for attacks, which is a rant for another day....). Like, just give me some space to hold my phone, keys, wallet, and lipstick, please.

Enough of those bras-with-pockets and garter-purses. Make fashionable items with big pockets is all I ask.

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
