The women that don't have a problem with long hair or wearing a dress are dressing their personal convictions on those lines. I think MissBratt has said that as well.
One example would be that their hair is long, but they are trimming it. Simply because the scripture isn't clear enough on that. My Son-in-law sports a beard and is totally accepted. No one cares or thinks its unscriptural.
The thing is, I haven't seen some of the stances against many things, in the places that I have lived, for a very long time. I guess it's location, location, location.

Here is the perfect example. Your Son-in-law would be on a fast track to hell with that beard, at least in Epley's church (according to Epley). And your right, the gateway to heaven is a maze who's twisting corridors and dead ends vary by location location location.
