It would seem that if ones reason for believing that women should not wear pants pivots ons Deu 22:5 then pajama pant are still wrong... hands down.

That thought would necessitate this thought. If one see no problem with a woman weaing pajama pants in her home then they, clearly, do not base their reasoning on on Deu 22:5.

This, to me, would appear to be givens.

That being a given... what scriptures do people base their prohibition of wearing pants on?

People live in various stages of undress in their own homes and it isn’t sin. I don’t see any issue with a woman wearing pajama pants at home in front of immediate family. If wearing pajama pants when sleeping next to your husband is a sin, then being completely undressed with your husband would be too.

But side note here, the holiness code of Deuteronomy isn’t so much about styles of clothing, but it is about addressing gender class distinction, perversion, and public modesty. I’d say there is no sin in a woman wearing women’s pants, the issue is that they are typically form fitting and are less modest than a modest skirt or dress. Therefore I also see no issue with a woman wearing women’s pajama pants. Now, I guess it would be a sin if a woman’s husband was wearing his wife’s pajama pants because of some strange turn on. LOL I digress.
