I appreciate you sincere desire to be pleasing to the Lord. Nevertheless, we must ask the question -- what was the difference in dress in those days. If you go to your local Christian book store you may easily find many books on Biblical customs. The difference between the way a man dressed and the way a woman dressed was primarily ornamental. Both men and wome wore robe like attire. The difference consisted of the material used in the belts and the woman's robe had a fancier hem (sp?) to the robe. Don't believe me go check it out.
Here is a link that has some interesting points about seperate dress.

No real problem exists over the use of "The Name" in everthing else done in the Church. Why then should there exist great controversy over the use of the "The Name of the Godhead" in water baptism?
