Literally the dialogue I had with a friend:

  • 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.
