I mean, telling someone to ignore the things that are actually built for their body and to buy things that likely won’t perfectly fit their body is hardly a solution. At best it’s a bandaid. Just give women pockets dammit!
Handbags are ugly and unhealthy, they were pushed onto women by men, and are generally terrible. We should get rid of them
But where am I supposed to put all my stuff then?
Pockets
But I don’t like the bulges they create
Yeah, right, but you do look beautiful with that suitcase on your shoulder and the crooked spine will fit your style well
No, you don’t understand, I mean, even
empty pockets make clothes appear baggy and inelegant just from the extra fabrics and seams needed for them
Suuure… Well, you do you, I guess…
Felt like pushing against the wall. Either Im fundamentally misunderstanding something abot female fashion, or some of them are too indoctrinated by it to even consider any alternatives.
Yet I’m annoyed because it was successful. Now I have razor cartridges all over the counter and no idea which is mine. I can see my shaver handle was used but don’t know if she used my blade or swapped cartridges, and which may be mine. Hell, I may not even know which handle is mine: how are they all out on the counter when mine is put away every time. Worst of all: I put the effort into stocking extra cartridges for my shaving needs so how are we always out and no one will let me know when they take the last one?
This is the solution to every example of the “pink tax” but they don’t want to hear it.

They? Who/where?
Not Target or anywhere else my daughter and wife shop. They would love a source of real pockets.
PS: yes I will Google it but I will be surprised if these are brick and mortar stores. I hope so. But… Buying clothes online sucks ime.

Clothes with decent pockets shouldn’t be niche. They aren’t for men. It’s so weird.

This is the dumbest fucking argument.
Women dont buy clothes with pockets because they’re not in stores as much.
Idk how often you actually shop for clothes online but getting something that:
Is far more difficult than you’d expect. Broadly speaking, women want pockets, but expensive purses exists so capitalism’s gotta go do it’s thing.

Target absolutely sells dresses and skirts with pockets. I have bought several.
Literally the dialogue I had with a friend:

My wife buys men’s razors, deodorant, and a bunch of other stuff. Many women’s products are exploitative, expensive garbage.
Any gender targeted product is usually higher priced IMO.
Tried to convince my wife to buy men’s razors. Was unsuccessful.
Why don’t you buy them?

So you’ll eat her out, but sharing a razor is beyond the pale?
Personally, I only use razors twice before tossing them since they dull pretty quickly. I can’t tell just by looking.
Not knowing how many times a particular cartridge was used would bother me. Wouldn’t be a yuck thing.

Tried it, the fit is too difficult. How the hell do people handle all the bunching?
