Deuteronomy 22:5

Ok, I am curious about this standard, which I perhaps have seemed to take for granted, and that is that the sisters should always wear skirts and dresses. It seems reasonable to me that the sisters should dress this way for modesty and gender distinction, however, there seem to be many here in disagreement. Would anyone have a study that could explain your position on this? I am also curious in that I think I remember when either Peter or Paul were speaking on modest dress for the sisters, the term for the dressing of the sisters was some sort of a garment that would hang down, thereby for some, requiring that women not wear pants...

What say ye?...
