Is it wrong for women to wear pants?

[ArnoldtheRubberDucky]

Oh! Ha ha. Sorry. I'm a bit bad at detecting sarcasm on the Internet.

Gabby girl,
The verse you pointed out is in Deuteronomy, written for the Jews at that time.
Christ died and put us under grace.
Wearing skirts will not make you any holier.

Not skirts, women's clothes. Deuteronomy 22:5 and 1 Corinthians 11:15 have the same theme not to forget that God created "male and female".

Well, you guys are assuming womens clothes are skirts.

[John Henry]

Unisex culture is of the DEVIL!

(lol, not that strong! That was a joke!)

[Samantha14]

I guess I'm going pretty far down then...

[Blitz]

Way low. But seriously one guy at the market tried to sell me a women jeans.

[Mr. Yorp]

Perhaps the question should be "Should boys wear skirts?"

What pictures are on many public restrooms????

The thing about girls wearing pants is that they will still wear dresses or skirts, some of the time.
If you aren't going to say the old testament laws are important, why should you tithe?
The problem with girls wearing pants is it is not modest and that it is men's clothing; God's commandments.
Conservative holiness Women (generally) wear skirts or dresses, do not cut their hair, wear long sleeved shirts with no low necklines and do not wear makeup.

And ya just look Better in dresses girls!

smh

1) Why does what is on a public restroom sign matter? Seriously? Grasping at straws much?
2) Pants are not modest. OK. How are they not modest? What makes them modest on men but immodest on women? Why is it men's clothing?

[Mr. Yorp]

my best friend was sent home from school for the entire day last year, missing two tests, just because she wore shorts that were a few inches above the knee. She also wore leggings underneath the shorts, just so she was still covered.

We'll ya see, all cultures have different places that are considered "sexy". In Canada and the U.S. that place would be the legs.

It used to be ankles in the 1800s.

REMEBER IN ODYSSEY?
"You would never see the ankles of any self respecting women in 1885!"

No text, uh, I don't know what restroom to go into...

[Rosy]

So what? You're seriously saying girls should base their dressing standards on a restroom sign?

[Mr. Yorp]

I am saying that pants are for men, skirts are for women.

[Rosy]

The problem with girls wearing pants is it is not modest and that it is men's clothing; God's commandments.

As has been asked many times in this topic, how are pants immodest? I bet I could show many, many skirts that are much more immodest than a simple pair of jeans.
And by what rule are they men's clothing?

[Mr. Yorp]

By what rule are skirts girls clothing?

[Eleventh Doctor]

True, guys should be able to wear skirts too, like when some guys wear kilts.

[Mr. Yorp]

We are so desensitized.

[Eleventh Doctor]

Umm, excuse me?

[Mr. Yorp]

What is the standard any more if men can wear dresses and women wear pants?
Men and Women are different.

The problem with Women wearing pants is that they are no longer feminine.
They will likely start doing men's jobs that they should not do.

[Eleventh Doctor]

What standard would you use then? Where does the Bible say pants are only for men?

How do you define feminine? What jobs are men only jobs?

[Mr. Yorp]

Being a soldier for one thing, but more importantly a bishop, deacon, head of the home.

[Eleventh Doctor]

Where does the Bible say they aren't to be soldiers? Also, out of curiosity, who is your bishop?

But you didn't answer my other questions, what standard are you using for what men and women should wear? And where in the Bible does it specifically say women shouldn't wear pants?

[Mr. Yorp]

The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God. Deuteronomy 22:5
