Slits in jackets are older than slits in skirts.

Hey why don't we just dress like EMO, and get you Liberals to focus on something other than clothes. Don't you chaps have any other focus in life?

Be blessed

Hey, laying all jokes aside. And some of you may have heard this already. I asked a very respected pastor and minister about splits, slits, whatever. He told me that skirts that had splits, and that were not at the ankles. Get this............. Were Babalyon Garments!!!!

Now, I'm not the smartest cookie in the jar, nor am I the dumbest brick in the wall. And I am not making this up. He told me all kinds of evils about these kind of skirts. I just stood there with that dumb look on my face. I finally just said. You know, after 35 years in the UPC, 16 of those a licensed minister as Associate Pastor, evangelist, etc.... Got more things to do for God, than running around trying to make a skirt into a devil.

Don't get me wrong. I believe in modesty. But come on now.

If so much focus wasn't on this - we would all be better off - and that's both sides.

For the record |Modesty| , yes - it's essential.

Mans interpretation of modesty - can be very, .... interpretational?( I made that word up!) But attempted to be made a "law".

Such were some of you!

Though that is funny. Today there is little distinction and men are being feminized all the time. I see that as a issue.

We went to the mall one day and we took pictures and video to make a point. When we finished with basic editing of the pictures and video we presented it and asked people to tell us if this was a woman or a man. Couldn't do it! It's not like we did much editing to hide faces etc... We also didn't need to really look hard to find examples. We where in and out in 15 minutes and had 65 examples on a slow day when the stores where very slow.

what a bunch of huey, people allready make a big fuss about slits, and such but on a suit coat, modesty is pleasing to god, and protects men and women, good grief, dt

I find it hard to believe you found that many examples where you could not tell the difference, but then I suppose it is possible when additional psychological factors are taken into account.
For instance, it is well documented that people have a more difficult time telling apart others of different ethnic persuasions -to one degree or another, simply because group A is not around group B as much and their brains do not learn what details to pick up on in the others in order to effectively do that.
Could it be that within some Pentecostal circles, people DO have a hard time telling the difference between sexes when the jean skirt and poof are removed from the equation?

Friend I can go to Walmart and in 30 minutes or so and find almost just as many. Try it! There is no clear distinction in dress for the most part. Feminism has truly for the worse changed the paradigm in which we don't see clear differences anymore.

also Wayne is we have to get that deep to define distinction then seriously we have a poor view of how to dress properly.

a necktie is a cloth necklace and is therefore considered adornment and pride.

Are we looking at distinction in dress or not being able to tell if it is a girl or guy?

Also, many will tell you that their IS a distinction in dress. I am not into fashions myself but my wife can tell the difference in womens and mens jeans from a mile away.
