I have often wondered how men's and women's apparel is defined.
Do we define it historically? Whatever was appropriate in the past would be correct for today. If this is so, why did it ever become correct for men to cease the wearing of robes. Futhermore, tights, the precursor to panty hoes were first worn by men.
Do we define it culturally? If that is the case, cultural norms have and do change.
Do we define it Biblically? I find it curious that God never deliniates men's and women's apparell. And the New Testament is curiously silent on the whole issue. Why would God overlook such a vital guidline?
Even when God clothed Adam and Eve, he did not explain the differences in the cut or construction of the garments. If fact he made them both tunics, or robes. No difference was noted by the author of Genesis. Why?
Just some thoughts. How do you define what is men's and women's apparel, and how do you know that is the correct method to be used?
Perhaps I can be of assistance. (Ignore what I just said about what I say! ) The WWPF has that one figured out. From their articles of faith:
Quote:
Pants, for example, scripturally and historically are equivalent to “girding up the loins like a man” (Job 38:3), something women did not do (Deuteronomy 22:5).
See? Pants. It's Bible.
