I did a google search and this is the first I found:

Those pants looks like they have good pockets, and they aren't cargo pants. Pockets for women are trivial to find, I found them instantly!

So the problem isn't "women's clothing doesn't have pockets", the problem is "the clothes I like doesn't have pockets". If women wanted pockets they could go buy pants with pockets, but they choose not to.

Well those are dress pants and not jeans, but more importantly the existence of an example online doesn't contribute anything. Nobody is claiming that pockets don't exist lol, just that they're often not available in regular stores with any regularity.

I think I've also reached my limit of interest in discussing pockets.

It sure does, H&M is massive and available all over the world. Them having cheap pants with pockets means that women all over the world can easily access pants with pockets.

If women craved pockets so much then those pants would sell out and they would expand the offering with more kinds.

Do those pockets fit a phone - properly fit it so it doesn't fall out if you have to run for a bus or a train?

The model can’t even fit her whole hand into the pocket!

Sounds pretty good to me!

This man can't even get all his fingers into his work pants [1].
