Missing Pockets in Women's Clothes
Missing pockets in women’s clothes are a topic that is discussed a lot among women. The absence of pockets in women's dresses and trousers is not a question of aesthetics, but rather a reflection of social control over women, limiting their freedom and autonomy.
Having a pocket means having a personal space, a place in which to keep what belongs to us without depending on others — a seemingly banal, but profoundly political gesture.
The demand for roomy pockets still speaks of the same desire for independence and equality, as seen in the return of cargo pants and feminist campaigns like #wewantpockets.
Author's summary: Women's clothes often lack pockets, reflecting patriarchal control.
