Our former pastor insisted that married women wear their hair up because it was too sensual worn down...which always seemed contradictory to me, since the teenage virgins should've been the ones looking...well...virginal, if indeed that were the case (about the hair).
Silliness. Some man's hangup becomes doctrine and women are embarrassed if they're "caught" with their hair down.
