And where in the Bible does it say that the top part of a garment can be similar but the overall garment be different? Is this something someone else told you or did you read that for yourself?

You claim I'm looking for loopholes, but actually I'm looking for Biblical truth. If what you claim above is Bible, please cite the verses. If it's not, then you are just repeating the ideas of another or stated something you have rationalized in your mind.

Thanks.

I believe you are looking technicalities in order to wear your pants.
comparing the dress of 2000 BC and today is what is comparing broomsticks and apples. I never said we ought to go over to other countries and try to change every aspect of their culture UNLESS it goes against all levels of modesty. some Heathan nations have to be taught to cover their butts up and YES they should. their generations of a pagan way of life taught them all sorts of evil practices just because it's normal for their culture does not make it right.
God gave us common sense HO. a basic "T" can be worn by both genders however a lcaey frilly top would not. since you dont believe in any kind of gender distinction would it be okay if a couple got married and the man wore the lacey gown and the woman wore the suit pant ??
