It's the inconsistency of our standards that irks me, on the issues of what a woman can wear.
I don't wear denim skirts, but I don't have a problem with others doing so. But I don't find material a standard issue either.

Welll just a couple verses wawy from Duet 22:5 is a verse tha deals with "materials". of course we just skip over that one, in fact we do as Paul instructed us and skip over 612 of the 613 laws of the Torah.

But for some reason 50 years some preacher thought he had license to aplly one of those laws to our women and make it a part of the gospel.

I am not skipping over anything. I just don't have a problem with this as much as you apparently do. I don't force outward standards on people.

So you're not against women wearing denim, but preacher's preaching it is suddenly okay after 50 years of preaching it wasn't?

Suddenly ???

It has been nice to hear a few preachers say, I am not perfect, i was wrong on my interpretaion of the scripture in teaching you this.

But men hate to admit they wer wrong, for the most part.

I never heard it preached against so I don't understand the problem you seem to be having with it.
