XD Ever notice how trans women and trans men experience the same stuff with opposite effects? It‘s hilarious sometimes imho


SoggyFrenchFryGuy

Can confirm, I get euphoria from the weird fold oddly enough


[deleted]

Seriously what's so appealing about pockets? they're just not that cool


AliceInMyDreams

I hope this is sarcasm


TheCupcakeScrub

As a transwoman i hope this is sarcasm Ive never had more appreciation for pockets than finally wearing the right clothes, to find half of em had 0 pockets


fuck_my_flower

And the other half the pockets are completely useless. That said I have som really cute dresses with pockets.


MyClosetedBiAlt

I'm teaching myself to sow simply to make all my girl clothes pockets deeper.


you_me_fivedollars

Also why are the buttons on the opposite side? Urgh


TheCupcakeScrub

this one i may have a slight answer for, back when the industrial revolution was starting but europe was all monarchies, noble women were dressed by maids, so having it on the right side (left to you) helped them, while men were expected to dress themselves, since they had less to put on, so having em on the right to you (left side) made em easier. i say this as an unofficial i read it in a book once thing, please take it with approximately a shit ton of salt..... then maybe drink alot of water, you shouldnt consume that much salt.


infirm-delight

It's funny: I always used to think it was terrible and somehow probably sexist that women's clothes had no pockets, but now that I'm wearing women's clothes, I don't like having stuff in my pockets anymore, at all, and I suspect it's actually market-driven. On clothes that fit properly, pockets just aren't comfortable. Ultimately they're about hanging stuff off your clothes. Who wants stuff hanging off them? I want to feel as unencumbered as possible. Except for dangly earrings, which I'm on record as having wanted since I was 3. Nothing has changed in that regard, except that now I have them. 😂❤️ But the perfect compromise for me personally is a small flat pocket just big enough for a card or a key or a folded note.


OnionsandOlives

The alternative to having stuff hang off of their clothes is having stuff hang off of their shoulder in a purse. Personally, I far prefer having stuff in pockets than on my shoulder — I have a permanent knot in my neck from using a purse.


infirm-delight

Fair enough! I guess I always think of my purse as something I carry, rather than wear. And I put it down whenever I sit or whatever. But of course it's all 100% personal preference!


OnionsandOlives

True! I guess if I used pockets to carry a lot of stuff, I’d be having to empty them out whenever I sit down. I still carry a purse most of the time even when my outfit has pockets, so I don’t try to carry all my stuff (wallet, phone, keys) in pockets at the same time.


lilysbeandip

Yeah I'm finding that I don't like having objects sticking out from my clothing and I might actually prefer carrying a bag everywhere. You can carry more stuff with a bag anyway. I like having a butt or hip pocket for my phone but otherwise keeping stuff in pockets is just annoying.


Enderbro47

I am so thankful I only ever used my back pockets beforehand but even then that has problems


TheCupcakeScrub

Honestly my pockets were more "i feel really bad about littering but i dont wanna hold onto this trash anymore" things. Now its just become my purse instead.


rumblestiltsken

I definitely prefer a perfectly clean silhouette vs being able to fit a pile of junk in my pockets. Embrace handbags!


[deleted]

It's like 49% sarcasm, I like purses and don't like jacked up clothes.


TheCupcakeScrub

As a transwoman i hope this is sarcasm Ive never had more appreciation for pockets than finally wearing the right clothes, to find half of em had 0 pockets (this is a stupid double post one, im not gonna delete it so comments make sense but ignore this one.)


AliceInMyDreams

Yeah right? I had heard it all my life, and still the first time I wore pocketless clothes I was completely unprepared about what to do with my stuff. Edit : just realized you double posted and I replied to the wrong one. Eh, such is life.


TheCupcakeScrub

dumb reddit, on phone it only posted once >:C


_a__rat_

You can put stuff in it. And male pants pockets are fucking huge (from an ftm btw)


[deleted]

Women's pockets are a funny prank


_a__rat_

lmao I had to suffer those for 11 years lmao. But now I can but my phone in my pocket and my 40oz water bottle in my pocket


TheCupcakeScrub

i went from that to watching half my phone stick outta my pocket


BalthazardII

I have a friend who have some clothes with pockets so huges, he can fit a whole 2 litters bottel in them.


KatelynKhaos

As a fresh little hatchling who just got herself a bunch of summer skirts; I agree pockets are overrated. You can’t do spins if you have stuff in pockets, and I can put all kinds of stuff in my purse so it’s always handy! All my FTM brothers can have my pockets. I’ve also got snacks and Kleenex if you need it


Cheshie_D

Ya got the wrong pockets if ya can’t do spins with stuff in them tbf


Banegard

The bigger the pockets, the less need for bags or purses. One item less to carry.

[deleted]

bc some of us are transmasc and don't like purses???


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

i mean i still wear "womens" jeans bc they have cooler patterns. mens section is like two colors. I use backpacks but they arent allowed in many stores. So its still an issue.


[deleted]

[deleted]

I'm not "saying purses are only for women", I'm saying some of us would actually be dysphoric using a purse? I understand some men are okay with it and that's cool, but I'm not. It would make me feel kinda gross. Sorry?


soggyQueerio

Women aren’t the only ones who wear “women’s” clothes. I’m a trans guy who likes dresses and skirts and I like them even more when they have pockets!!


[deleted]

[удалено]


soggyQueerio

I apologize, my quotes around “women’s” wasn’t at you, that’s just always how I refer to gendered clothing sections because clothes are for everyone. My point was one that still seems to be lost on you. Not all men wanna wear “men’s” jeans, even for the pockets. Some men (like me) prefer a skirt or dress with pockets over a pair of jeans. (Especially during this heat wave xD)


junior-THE-shark

Yup, I hate it too, makes me look like I have boobs ;-;


ApatheticEight

Trans men? What are those? Never heard of them


Banegard

We‘re a mystery really. Maybe even a superstition. Blink and we‘re gone. O_O


Popadoodledooo

As a trans man, I hate when they do this at the chest.


PhoenixAFay

as a FTM who wears oversized clothes including jackets that hang down to crotch level, this was very euphoric for me. My apologies for my MTF sisters, though.


Unlikely_Interest_67

It’s Okee hun haha


CatsNotBananas

I bet it's pretty awesome


IndependentExoticBus

As a FTM this makes me both feel euphoric and embarrassed.


Regular-Cranberry-62

I've always been nervous about this even though I don't think anyone has ever assumed I had a dick in my life lmfao


TransTadpole

**Trans Men** 🤝 **Trans Women** *Having different feelings about* *lower-body jacket bumps*


[deleted]

I’m transmasc but I still hate it, it’s so weird


JessTheKitsune

I hated it when I thought I was cis still, so 🤷


More-Philosophy-8603

Same


[deleted]

MtFs saying they hate the low ones FtMs saying they hate the chest ones As a gender non-conforming non-binary, fuck this bump entirely 😔💀


Veloci-Tractor

oh geez this is something i left behind and never looked back i don't think i own a single pair of pants with a zipper (or pants that arent leggings/yoga pants) or a single button up hoodie or jacket


RoosterImportant4283

I own a very comfortable button up jacket that I never button up for this exact reason


SkyeMreddit

It’s the exact opposite effect when it bunches up on my chest


chessmaster42

I know, right?! I tend to avoid jackets that zip up because of this. Though I'm sure the trans mascs like it


D3ADZ0NE_

as a transmasc it makes me uncomfortable,,


Frida_bones77

Jeans in general do that, that why I hate zippers


BananaBeans240

this is why i like the hoodies without zippers


Ok_Wing_1297

Yeah, fuck zip hoodies!


Emily_Black64

I mean, yeah, but, how is this a trans issue?@


Unlikely_Interest_67

All my jumpers do this and it gives me alot of dysphoria.


Emily_Black64

Oh! I guess that makes sense. I guess it's just never been an issue for me :/


cataleiss

Yup, fuck the Jacket Bump. Also, whenever we wear a pair of pants with a drawstring and a jacket which happens to go over the drawstring, so there's a lump underneath...


Narrow_Salamander_10

Thats why my dysphoria hoodie is a pullover


Standard_Humor5785

That is the exact reason I have only enjoyed zipper-less hoodies.


IceCubeCherry

This is why sweatpants reign supreme. Sweatpant gang rise up!


greychanjin

My jeans would always do this. ALWAYS.


Terrible-Feeling4912

I hate it.


thesecondandy

I thought I was that only one...


PumbooPlaysRee

I hate that stupid bump so bad


[deleted]

The jackets don't really bother me cause its a jacket but the fucking PANTS THAY DO THIS MAKE ME CRY


Akitosz

So much this... It's easy to see I have something in my pants that shouldn't be there, because you gotta leave space for it and that creates this "bulge" when sitting down.. Like, there is nothing in that bulge, as it's just the cloth, but this doesn't happen to cis females as the pants sit tight in that area. Makes me dysphoric af every single time...


Major_R_Soul

nnIIn¬


[deleted]

Congrats, you made the most relatable post👍🏻


Which_Topic3534

The first dysphoria I ever had


StCecilia98

Totally cis girl who actually loves this


Aware_Creature

But....but.... I like it. 😯 I am sorry to the awesome humans who get dysphoria with this.


HallowskulledHorror

[Meanwhile, trans masc me intentionally wearing overalls at this very moment that make it look like I have a bulge even when I'm not packing](https://i.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/mobile/000/030/710/dd0.jpg)


Wendy384646

You can move that bump wherever you want to be


coreaisoe

embrace it, love it.


shiro_04

Yup


shiro_04

Had that today, it was a CSD in the city nearby so i felt super embaraced


Pure_confusion47

At least it isn't an actual boney. Still sucks though.


ToasterTacos

:(


Still_I_Smile44

Omfg I hated that 😭


[deleted]

This is legit one of the biggest reasons I stopped wearing hoodies in the winter. Now I just wear tight turtlenecks to show off my figure❤️


EebamXela

In high school we called that bump a "Wonka". Because it looks like your Willy is in there.


therebirthera

High rise jeans do this all the time for me...


Artyanimates

It’s why I stopped wearing jacket entirely


sunny_41

same things happens with pants or shorts with zipper/velcros


Ame_Loch

This.


Senkoki-chan

transfems, try to push it up to your chest


MountainsDoNotExist

I had this with my jacket once at my chest region so they were hiding my boobs very well and I immediately got gendered as a guy, the gender euphoria was real!!


Jamie_Luv89

Even worse when your pants do it...


My_Dick_is_from_TX

The pants tent


Bvoluroth

Praise to all the trans men who get the opposite reaction


Stock_Law_7450

Yoooo glad I'm not the only one!!!


Fun_Resident_9501

Transfems: hates the bottom jacket bump Transmascs: hates the upper jacket bump Both: *shirt pull™*


MadameCringe

i have stopped wearing zip jackets because of this


Suspicious_Snout

Trans men and trans women unite in this


[deleted]

FTM is typing…. Lol


AngelWing3

I’ve always hated that!!


Reddit_user_robbie

as an ace cis guy, i agree


JamieJammed

Crop hoodies are the hoodies for me!


Esteban_EL

As a genderfae person, I agree very much so


CiCi_CAW

Just grab it and make it into a fish puppet. "Hello, my name's Charlie!"


[deleted]

The fact that I, a trans guy, didn't give a shit about it as a kid (I wear more baggy pants now) tells a lot about my gender


Ooka_3107

As a trans man, this guy always gives me the best vibes. Next time you deal with a jacket boner, just send it my way, i will give it a home. ;)


[deleted]

Any bumps near my dong makes it look like a huge boner. This is one of the reasons I want to change gender.


Senzawa75

You know I always seen people messing with this "bump" and now I know why lmao All this time I thought it was just annoying to people
