not necessarily, I've been taught the status qou on that scripture. Not sure it means what we say it is or should it just apply to lower half of the body. Some have declared it means mens battle gear as in women shouldn't war.

One thing I do know is we have picked that scripture out aand preach it with passion while negating other scriptures in deut, even many on tithes.

I do believe there's men clothing for gender distinction and vice versa.

I, personally, don't see the application of Deu 22:5 being what people have touted it as.

My wife & daughters wear skirts outside the home and wear PJ's at the house. If I believed that Deu 22:5 was saying what we are told it says then this would not be the case.

Our reasoning revolves around a desire for modesty.

If this scripture meant what we say it means, a women would be an abomination if she draped her husbands coat overher shoulders to keep warm.


She would be commiting an abomination if she wore a ball cap, a tee shirt.

If she wore a shirt to paint in that buttoned on the right instead of the left, another abomination.

If you were to misconstrue this scripture to inforce and impose this rule for woman and pants you MUST inforce it across the board on anythin other clothing article that resembles what a man would wear.
