Archeology. Pants were imported from other cultures.

Let me get this straight. It sounds like, you are suggesting that three godly young men that refused the kings meat and refused to bow before an image, even though their life depended on it, were strong enough to refuse that stuff BUT when it came to pants they sinned by wearing Babylonian garments.
Wow!!! That is reaching far and wide to try to distance yourself from the truth. Hey, that's okay. You can smoke peyote and sing "Spirit in the Sky" with whomever you wish.
The truth is those three godly young men refused the kings meat because it was wrong. They also refused to bow before an image because it was wrong. However, men wearing pants is NOT wrong in any culture much less the Hebrew culture so they wore them. Yet, NO godly woman is ever seen wearing them. So go ahead and try some more mental calisthenics - you know, those mental gymnastics you have been doing that has been so entertaining. When you are done, the Bible will still say the same thing: godly men wore pants and godly women did NOT.
