The problem is that they do not think a woman can look modest in anything but a skirt, which is where my husband and I disagree with this mindset.

This is not a Biblical principle, only personal preference which has been embraced by the OP as a whole. If you think women look best in a skirt, than by all means, wear only a skirt. But don't judge someone who doesn't share the same conviction or preference as you.

Dressing/attire/hair really should be a personal conviction and application of principle set forth by the husband of the household, as Biblical authority shows... God-Christ-husband-wife-family. And the standards should not be taught as salvational.
I agree. One objection I have to the UPC dress standards is that it's tied to salvation. Another is this ridiculous notion that dresses are the only modest apparel for women. Simply untrue.

I believe saints should be modest, and it should be discussed in churches. Not with rules and regulations, but just the overall concept of modesty.
