I like the idea of a foldable phone but what I really want is a phone that folds enough to fit in my women’s pants pockets.
Or perhaps just get a pair of pants that doesn't suck? Designing a phone around womens complete lack of self awareness seems not so good, it's way to volatile.
I can see you don’t spent much time with women.
Women aren’t choosing pants with shitty pockets intentionally.
That's the result of women choosing it over and over again...If women got to their senses and actually started NOT buying that junk, what do you think all the big mega corps producing tons and tons of clothes will do? Continue producing same shit clothes or adapting the factories to new, more reasonable clothes?
You’re wrong about why women’s clothes don’t have pockets. Women were never given a choice to buy clothing with pockets.
Initially, pockets were not accessible in women’s clothing due to the layers they were required to wear. After the suffragette movement when liberated women began to wear pants, designers intentionally kept pockets small to prop up the purse industry.
Handbags are one of the most profitable items in the fashion industry.
So we should just not wear pants until however long it takes to happen?
Or just buy the few that actually exists. Thanks to the internet, you can order from many locations, just using a small device that fits your palm. Matter of fact, these days you can place an order with your voice in many locations as well.
