maybe "in" the right hand pocket, not "on." but the opening to the smaller pocket comes up and is outside the bigger pocket.

Yep, it's a watch pocket, meant to hold small pocket watches. Gentlemen carried pocket watches on chains and kept them in their vest's watch pocket, but men who wore jeans usually didn't wear a vest, and they labored (worked), so they made a small pocket for the watch, separate from the coins and other stuff a man would carry, so it didn't tear up the watch....
Some of them are big enough for a cell phone, some too small to carry a Chap-Stik....

It was created for men to put their pocket watch in, and the style just stuck, probably because people find the smaller pocket useful.

I have that too. I think it's just for looks, but maybe if you lose an earing back or something, you could just stick it in there instead of trying to find it in a huge pocket.

Basically every pair of jeans has that. It is called 5 pocket jeans. I guess it is just the style, i dont know, but it is useful for holding lip gloss!

It was originally created for men to put their pocket watches in. In Britain they are called "Johnny Pockets" and it is where guys keep their condoms...

Because the person who made it was deformed. You don't have to put much thought into this one.
