Amazing huh? Why not just say, "I don't beleive I have to adhere to that anymore" Then my thought would be , hey if that is what God convicted him of then that is between him and God.
What if I said this in reverse. I don't know , something like:
"I used to not shave, had long hair, wore shorts, and went to the beach with women till one day God said to me, " Hey stupid , you are embarassing me"
Man I bet backlash would be 5 pages long, and I'm pretty sure you would lead it off.

I don't have a problem at all with a conservative going on about how wonderful their corporate legalism and extra biblical standards are. They have their point of view and are perfectly in their rights to express any ephiphonies of the evils of cut hair, makeup, short sleeves, etc as they see fit.
I also reserve the right to think that women riding horses, water slides, snow skiing, and jet skiiing in skirts is ridiculous and does not bring one iota of "glory to God" but rather brings undo ridicule upon the church.
I very well remember those joyus youth get togethers at the ice skaing rink where our young ladies had skirts on the outside of insulated coveralls. Good grief.
