I wish women would shut up about not having pockets.

Capitalism is simple. Companies make what people are willing to buy, because that's what makes money. Nobody is refusing to make womens' pants with pockets because of some insidious sexist plot.

There are already companies that make pants with pockets for women. The fact that they're smaller companies, lesser-known, and less profitable means that more women overall would still rather have pretty pants than have pockets.

It would be like me complaining as a guy that there are no crossbow companies making good quality recurve crossbows. They're all either cheap crap or they use a cam system which I don't want. There are very few recurve crossbows of good quality but they're hard to find in actual stores and overpriced by double.

Is this a sexist plot against crossbow dudes? Fuck no. It just means that hardly anyone actually wants a good quality recurve crossbow. Which is true, and it's obvious it's true. It's less profitable and therefore companies make less, and require higher pricing per unit to reach the same profit margin as their conventional compound crossbows.
