It is a OP law that really needs re-evaluation.
Church reacted because people wearing pants 70 years ago were feminists/flapper-type gals. I agree, though, that pants on women do not bear that same symbolic meaning anymore.

Anyone ever wonder, though, why the fuss over Hillary wearing pants too often, and Laura Bush being more celebrated as a lady? Again, nothing to form a doctrine on, but worth considering.
