When you all start having your boys were their sister's frilly sunday dresses then come and let's talk. until then, don't tell me that you don't believe that Duet 22 does not apply
Duet 22:5 may apply, but it has nothing to do about pants. Thad no one saying it's not for today, what we are saying is it has nothing to do with wearing pants, Period! Study it out~
I agree with you, and it is about intent. What is the reason for wearing certain clothes?
There are women all over the church on any given Saturday morning work day wearing their husbands old shirts while they go about their duties in a skirt...because they are admonished or believe they shouldn't wear men's clothing.
So would you wear certain articles of clothing with the intent of being or acting, or taking the place of a man? Probably not.
This is why the principal is SOOO important that women not wear the persona or nature of a man with the intent to exact his authority, position, or identity. This is what I believe Deut 22 is ALL about.
Bro. Scott- I answered you privately but wanted to use your post to let others know that unfortunately I am not qualified or licensed to answer most legal questions outside of my state. Consequently, I can't, don't, and won't be able to respond to poster questions about the law.

This issue involved in matters of cross-dressing. Sometimes a man wishes to be seen as a woman or a woman wishes to be seen as a man. This would be an abomination to the Lord.
It is important to understand that the law of Moses was never intended for any people group other than Israel. Many laws were given to give Israel a distinction from other nations. A case in view is the use of phylacteries which the Jews take from Deu6:8; "You shall bind them as a sign on your hand and they shall be as frontals on your forehead."
To go back to the Law to prove a thing isn't always a good thing to do. Paul said that if we wish to apply the law of Moses as pertaining to our righteousness before God, then we must apply all the Law and not just selected portions, as the church does The reason is because the Law of Moses contained a curse on the person who did not apply all the law.
This does not mean that the law of Moses has no moral codes to consider. Paul said that the Law could be used as a teaching instrument as long as we used it 'lawfully,' which means that we cannot use the law as an instrument of righteousness. We are not under the law of Moses, but under the law of Christ.
Who said anything about approving of mini skirts????
I don't see how leggings are any different from tights.
