I don't quite remember you 'destroying the gender distinction issue', to be honest.

I have NEVER believed that 'pants on women is immodest'. I have maintained that ALL clothing that is immodest is wrong and unbecoming a Christian, and that pants are men's clothing, not women's clothing.

(And before someone brings up flowery, 'women's pants' I just have to say that making a dress out of denim with a hammer holder and a big patch on the back pocket saying 'Tuff Guy (c)' would not make a dress a man's dress.)

You are exactly right! Some of those guitars are upside down too.
Listening to discussions like this over the years, I've always wondered if there have been outcry's against women who go the "reduction" route. (You KNOW there would be if they went under the knife to go the other way.)

Just a thought on a side issue. Wondering if cosmetic surgery is 'ok' if it is meant to make someone LESS attractive and thinking (guessing) that many of the more conservative among us may actually think that.

That is a very interesting thought. I'm not sure that I've even heard anyone's opinion on enhancements either. Is that even addressed in churches?

Also, just a little side note - - a reduction sometimes actually helps a situation and could end up making the person more attractive.

I'm in favor of all women being locked up in their houses myself. Men are just so weak, the very presence of a woman leads to wrong thoughts. Keep those women out of sight and you'll keep a man's mind pure! What was God thinking anyway when He made women attractive to men? One doesn't know who to blame the woman or God!

Lets hope the liberal minded woman who would be opposed to this movement would be one who shaves her armpits and legs, and is not a arabian conformist.

Re: A question regarding women wearing pants...

For those who believe pants can be modest on women, take a look at these, in particular men. Which ones would be more or less noticable to you?
