Never understood men who keep their wallet or phone in a back pocket.

Wallet makes sense in the back pocket. It’s been kind of the default for generations so much it’s a comedic point in TV Shows and movies at times. They’re generally malleable and an easy place to grab, for better or worse.

Phone on the other hand, I don’t get either. They’re rigid and can break quite easily if sat on. 🤷‍♂️

Wallet in back pocket = back pain. It’s pressing on your sciatica. Keep it in your front pocket, or get cargo pants.

…is this a humble brag about how heavy your wallet is from all your gold doubloons? 🤨

*sciatic nerve. “sciatica” is the kind of pain caused by compression of the nerve.

Anecdotal. I keep a trim wallet and have never had back pain.

I agree. I was just stating “it makes sense”. Small wallet for the front pocket. Can’t always wear cargo lol

I’d go crazy if I had to sit with a lump under one ass cheek.

Wallet in the back pocket has cost me nearly 6-figures in medical bills for back pain over the years.

I keep my wallet in my back pocket because then if someone wanted to steal it they’d have to touch my butt thus making them gay.

Checkmate, liberals.

I kept my phone in my back pocket when I was a teen until a rivet shattered the screen when I sat down.

Most front pockets on women’s pants are too small unless it’s the dreaded fake pocket (Curse you cute pair of jeans!). Thus usually in my back pocket while walking and not in use. It is removed when sitting though.

They did mention men specifically. Unless you mean you’re a man using women’s pants, in which case, fair enough.

It’s uncomfortable to walk up stairs and uphill when my phone is in my front pocket. Plus the movement to get it out from my back pocket is so much swifter.

Everyone here putting their stuff in their pants’ pockets… anyone here who just wears a belt bag everywhere instead?
