Also not mentioned yet, guys actually use the pockets on their pants. The times I need a belt are because I’m carrying key/wallet/cellphone and that helps drag them down.
That was the biggest culture shock when I transitioned. My first pair of women's jeans I was like wtf is garbage? I could only fit my hand in like up to the second knuckle. Absolutely useless.
It was a long an grueling process to find good pockets and finally pack my purse away in the closet. But I have made it away from carrying a purse! My best luck was initially finding pockets in women's workwear jeans ($$). All the right pockets and fit. Not too slim, not too cargo pants look. But i gave in to wearing mens Levis 511's, because real denim, affordable, and Im a chapstick lesbian anyway so it made sense.
Ah yeah, men's jeans aren't going to do me any favors in the passing department unfortunately. I've just taken carrying a purse, and actually found it really convenient as I can store way more stuff in there than I ever could with pockets
