Your leaning towards no pants is quite evident.

Basically, the idea needs to be considered... Pants became men's apparel when robes used to be men's apparel, not due to God's leading. It was purely cultural. To say women should not wear pants today is ignoring this historical fact and refusing to apply the same principle in accepting pants for men to pants for women. God never had pants in mind whatsoever when words were written about masculine attire as opposed to women's. And dresses and skirts can be as immodest as SOME pants on women, while pants on women are often more modest then those immodest skirts and dresses. There are very modest pants for women. When we time lock ourselves into the last few decades we lived, we fail to realize God surveys all of time since the beginning. And he made no pants for man. Just a coat, and the same was for Eve, for that matter. And the only reason anyone would push for no pants on women is a cultural issue amongst some denominations, alone. People just have to admit that.
