What's crazy is, those limitations are no less shallow in reverse. This thread which has been about immodesty and foppish, flamboyant dress is full of rules given by people who feel that outward standards are shallow--but they still have standards, just coming from the other direction. What an interesting contradiction.

MB, and what are those reverse standards being propogated, preached incessantly at camps and conferences, splitting groups wide open? It's not really a contradiction at all. In a generic sense, everyone has standards. But I think we both know "standards" reasonates as specific rules your mind immediately goes to when you hear that word, coming from an OP culture.
"Standards," an unbiblical word attempt to describe something "biblical" has produced, in the best of intentions, minimums for church goers that have diminished the call for maximums.
