The Bible doesn't say it is a drink alcohol. Should a christian go to bars and drink beer as long as they don't get drunk.
The Bible doesn't its a sin for women to wear bikinis. Yes, it speaks of modesty, but there are no definitions. individuals can say what they think is modest and what is not.
The Bible doesn't say its wrong to cuss. It speaks of swearing, but that is in regards to oaths. Should Christians cuss?
The Bible doesn't explicitly name a lot of things that are a part of our society, but standards are boundaries we set that keep away such reproach out of the church. All these things the world does, but Christians should not. IMO this is how standards seperate us from the world.

I thought you were speaking of dress standards before?
I agree that these are the types of standards that separate us, though I dare say, I don't find the idea of doing any of the things we would refrain from that you mentioned here to be one bit appealing.
