Why do some people bring this up? A dress and skirt in this culture is strictly a woman's garment. Pants in this culture aren't strictly a man's garment, so the comparison is silly.
so what garment is striclty a man's ? is there any ?

Funny though, cause 400 years ago, all men wore skirts and nobody thought that was strange. In fact, when men started wearing pants, it was considered immodest to do so.
In many other countries, men wear skirt-like garments. It's a man's garment they wear, even if the women in the same country also wear a skirt-like garment.
It's 2007. Pants aren't exclusively a man's garment and hasn't been for years. Let's live in the present, not in the past.
Pants are a man's garment. No matter who wears them.

would you be eager to let your sons wear a dress or skirt ?
What my sons wore as children was my concern and I dealt with it accordingly, as my father guided me. I did not look to the church to dictate these matters at all. Did the church have influence? Only as the teaching of the Word influenced my understanding. I do not attend a church that focuses on these individual and personal matters.
Thad, there are weightier spiritual matters that the church really does need to address. It is ridiculous that this subject is even considered a spiritual concern to the church at large.
And BTW, the folks on this forum are the church, or at least a part of it.

Only in you mind.

No, in my heart. I believe that you do not need to put pants on a young girl and you do not need to allow a teen girl to dress like a prostitute. And above teens, ladies can still blush and dress like a lady.

what weightier spiritual matters ?
one of the last day battles we are going to face is gender distinction. some things are cultural i agree but the LOrd commanded gender distinction to protect us from the spirit of perversion that is taking over the world today. now, i'm not saying that attire is the ONLY way that perversion creps in. the devil has other avenues as well , but it is certainly one way no one can deny that
so what garment is striclty a man's ? is there any ?
Is that really the issue? If there isn't any, does that matter? Was there a garment in the Bible that was strictly for men, or did everyone wear the same garment....and did so for thousands of years?
Understand that there is no sin in wearing men's apparel. The sin is in wearing it in an attempt to be seen as a man. This goes along with Deut. 22......the entire chapter.
