Maybe we should all be wearing robes, some of us going commando and others not! ??? LOL 
I've heard it debated that women should wear skirts and men pants b/c the types of robes were different for men and women, but that would also hold true for both types of pants today.  |
We know that the robes (if thats what they wore.. lol) would have to be significantly different so that even from a distance you could tell them apart. Something that is an abomination in the law could not have allowed otherwise.
(think harlots caught had to wear certain garments that distinguished them)
