Why is it that the "cut" of a robe was enough to separate gender in biblical times, but the "cut" of trousers is not enough to separate gender in modern times... and if we go down the modesty path here, then neither men nor women should wear pants. Should not men and women be equally modest?

Seems reasonable and logical, but since when is religion reasonable and logical. I personally believe this subject is out of bounds for the pulpit to be engaged in, beyond preaching modesty. Then leave it to the Holy Spirit and the wisdom of believers to receive truth and interpret it in their own lives. The pulpit should focus on the weightier matters of the gospel, the ministry of reconciliation, according to the Apostle Paul.
