The Hidden History of Pockets: A Conversation with Hannah Carlson
Manage episode 438740235 series 1492193
In this episode, Hannah Carlson, author of “Pockets: An Intimate History of How We Keep Things Close,” discusses the historical and social significance of pockets. Inspired by a personal experience where she had no pockets during an emergency, Carlson explores how pockets have evolved from medieval times to modern days, highlighting their gender disparity. She delves into how pockets in women’s clothing were often inadequate or non-existent, contrasting with men’s standardized pocketed garments. Carlson also examines pockets in historical contexts, like women’s sports and military uniforms, and how pockets have influenced and reflected societal norms and gender roles.
Key Points
- Historical Evolution: Pockets have evolved from medieval pocket slits to modern integral pockets in clothing, with men often having more practical pockets than women.
- Gender Disparity: Women’s clothing historically lacked pockets, reflecting societal views on femininity and practicality, and influencing how women carried their belongings.
- Pockets and Society: Pockets were banned in some eras due to their association with concealed weapons, and they influenced how people moved and interacted with the world.
- Modern Pockets: Despite advancements, women today still face issues with inadequate pockets, often expressed through social media and fashion movements.
