Hi. Person who has identified male my entire life here.

I have no idea what this "cell phone pocket" in underwear thing is about. Sounds like lunacy to me.

That said, give pockets to women who want pockets. It is baffling to me that this is still a thing.

Lots of pants out there that have pockets. They often choose not to buy them. And when they do, they put nothing in them.

For what it's worth, according to my wife and 4 daughters it's because it's because if you put things in your pockets like guys do, it ruins the lines and look. And according to our oldest daughter, it's why cargo shorts and pants look bad on men. And should never be worn.

I think I've seen them in some compression shorts so that you can run in loose mesh shorts. Can't run with your phone in those.
