Crossdressing...Just how does a woman participate?

[*AQuietPlace*]

For thousands and thousands of years men and women both wore robes. In our current (western) culture men and women both wear pants.


(In other parts of the world, men still wear robes or skirt-like garments:

"Outside of Western cultures, male clothing includes skirts and skirt-like garments.[3] One common form is a single sheet of fabric folded and wrapped around the waist, such as the dhoti or lungi in India, and sarong in South and Southeast Asia. There are different varieties and names of sarong depending on whether the ends are sewn together or simply tied.

Some long robes also resemble a skirt or dress, including the Middle Eastern and North African caftan and djellaba.

Other similar garments worn by men around the world include the Greek and Balkan fustanella (a short flared cotton skirt), the Pacific lava-lava (similar to a sarong), some forms of Japanese hakama and the Bhutanese gho.

Skirts that are called qun(裙) or chang(裳) in Chinese were also worn by ancient Chinese men.")


If it was okay for thousands of years (and when the Bible was written) for men and women to wear the same basic garment, why is it suddenly a sin now? We really need to bear in mind that when the Bible was written men and women both wore the same type of garment! We can't twist the Bible and try to make it say something it's not saying just to back up our traditions. Or at least we shouldn't.

Men and women used to both wear robes, now men and women both wear pants - in our culture. Not seeing the difference.
