I’m sure any guy out there has been on a date, or with a girl and been asked the following favor:  “Can you carry this _____ for me?”  Normally the request is to carry something small, and seemingly insignificant such as lip gloss, a set of keys or a mini bag of peanut M&M’s.  Why in the world do women make men carry such things for them?  Are we like a giant walking dufflebag to them? I don’t know why this bothered me so much, but yesterday, I think I figured it out! Women’s pockets are absolutely useless!  I will expound.  Up until around the 60’s, most women didn’t wear pants, nor did they have an overabundance of things to carry.  Through the 60’s and 70’s, most women were hippies and didn’t even shave their armpits, let alone wear lip gloss, or carry car keys.  Through the late 70’s all the way up until the early 90’s, the “fanny pack” was in style.  After the fanny pack phase went out, women were left with tight pants and no significant storage space.  Thus, men are now required to carry a wallet, keys, cell phone and chapstick in addition to his dates cell phone, lip gloss and any other various comodity needing holding.  I say, if you’re going to have pockets, use them… if not rid yourself of the appearance of being storage compatible…
