Is there something inherently masculine about trousers and inherently feminine about skirts, so at all times in all cultures men must always wear trousers and women must always wear skirts?

You currently live in a society where men are getting married to men. Women married to women.
Homosexuality the fall of empires.
Yet, if we understand how empires are born, prosper and eventually die. We can see a pattern. Religion naturally shapeshifts in order to stay relevant in the world in which it operates. The problem is with movements is that they are never the same as when they began. Separatist movements use the Bible to form guidelines of separation with the culture or cultures around them. Why were American females and their early European counterparts wearing dresses in the first place? Oh, they were predominantly Christians. Because the Church ran governments in Europe? Sent their zealots over to the colonies? When the Puritans weren't burning witches they held strict separation standards of dress and behavior. Trousers had there start as military attire, long underwear were demanded of the priests of Israel. Masculinity is part of our religion, hence you have men as the leadership in home and in church. Wives submit yourselves to your own husband went down the toilet with Rosie the Riveters 22 inch biceps. bobbing of hair, 1920s, and we see the first glimpses of pants on women.
You mentioned "what if" women don't know the symbolism of pants on women? I'll tell you this, a girl in one of the Bible studies had a Baphomet, under a Pentagram encased in a hexagram. I said why did you get that tattoo? She said she liked the picture, but didn't know anything else about it.
She was pretty surprised when I PROVED to her the significance of the symbol. Now, she was clueless, but did the symbol hold any meaning to anyone else on earth? Of course. Wearing a swastika might be meaningless to the wearer but not to the eye beholder.
