I wonder if we could appeal to bathroom signs of biblical authority to answer our modesty questions also.
Well, that would put an end to the gender distinction problem!

Talk about a "DOH!" moment.... You are so right, Timmy.

In our culture, they view a man dressing in a dress as a crossdresser. I just see it as the same when a woman wears pants, thats all!

We are arguing culture and, although our culture has softened it's stance somewhat in this arena, the dress is still associated with a woman.

Try again!



PS Besides, if I did not defend the ultracon position then they would say we have all left, can't have that now can we?

Women wearing bifurcated garments are masculine, and men not wearing bifurcated garments are feminine. Be quiet. I think I can hear some of David's mighty men laughing thier robes off!!!


Sorry, try again!!

Re: Conservative Camp Meeting, Ventura, CA.06/22-0

I never thought I would hear myself say this but, WOW, what near minded thinking. I know that straight is the way and narrow the gate stuff. So we have to dress according to our culture? What do we do with those that come from other places? Or do we have to dress like others when we go into their culture? I think it is narrow mindedness to think that because a guy who may wear a kilt is a sissy and going to split hell wide open just as I think that a woman wearing pants is going to do the same. So when we go to India are the ladies supposed to dress in the outfits they wear there? a lot of them wear a pants with a long tunic type top over it. Very lady like and beautiful in most cases. Do men have to wear robes when we go to the middle east? What about when they come here? Are the required to now dress like out culture? Why do we have to try and dictate to others what they must wear. If it is modest and they are not trying to look and act like the opposite sex why does it matter to anyone?

Re: Conservative Camp Meeting, Ventura, CA.06/22-0

I was so sadden to hear a young missionary bragging about teaching his preachers to wear white shirts...lol...How out of focus can we get...

A lost world dying without even KNOWING the name of Jesus and a missionary teaching people to wear white shirts...I am glad peer pressure has never been my problem...lol...
