Re: Denim skirts out of blue jeans at UPC seminar

I guess I could care less about jean skirts other than it is just THE look (along with the 'poof') that has been adopted to let the world know that you (if you are of the female persuasion) are part of THE Church.

The follow up question is always, but what if you are a guy????? I guess "we" just have to let the fruits be love and compassion.

But for some reason 50 years some preacher thought he had license to aplly one of those laws to our women and make it a part of the gospel.
So you're not against women wearing denim, but preacher's preaching it is suddenly okay after 50 years of preaching it wasn't?

Re: Denim skirts out of blue jeans at UPC seminar

Have you ever seen a skirt that has been made from a pair of jeans? They are actually decent looking skirts.

I have scrub pants converted to skirts to wear to work. I don't like the scrub skirts because they make my hips look even wider than they already are. The skirts I have made from the scrub pants are more flattering. Believe it or not. In fact, ALL of the pentecostal ladies who work where I am employed prefer the skirts that are made from the pants--and will pay well to have someone remake the pants into a skirt. They are just look better than regular scrub skirts.

Randy, I'm going to do my mother proud and not say everything that has just popped into my head.

But some of the styles I have seen running around... I'd take the horrible poof and mid calf jeanskirts with bobby socks any day.

Someone put some jeans on skinny hairy man legs and a longer top over the belly fat that's hanging out over top of some women wearing thier hipster jeans.

Randy, our girls were forced to do this at a church i use to attend.

My question?? how does wearing a skirt OVER the mens apparel UNABOMINATE it ??

For we are all told, according to Dt 22:5, that wearing that which pertains to a man is an abominiation.

That is just silly. I don't care who you are.

Suddenly ???

It has been nice to hear a few preachers say, I am not perfect, i was wrong on my interpretaion of the scripture in teaching you this.

But men hate to admit they wer wrong, for the most part.

LOL

My Ma (of all people) bought me some jeans and their crotch was about 6 inches below where it should be. They are not quite hip hop style but I refuse to wear them.

My wife does not buy the abomination line, yet sees skirts as more modest and feminine. She does believe ladies should wear skirts.
