Even the skeletal structure differs; men's legs are kind of like this: | | Women's are more like this: \ /
The bone structure of a man's face is more rugged-looking; a woman's face has smooth curves.
Women, of course, have breast - men don't.
Men have hairy arms, chest, hands & feet - women do not.
Men are usually taller - women shorter.
Men have deeper voices - women generally have higher voices.
Men have an "Adam's Apple" - women don't.
Men are usually more muscular than women.
Men and women differ in their interests, the way they walk, the way the talk, the way they think, the way the respond & react - they differ in MANY ways.

I was driving down my street the other day & saw two young teens walking. One was male, the other female. I had no problem telling which was the boy and which was the girl, even from a great distance away... And they both had pants on.

The boy was a bit broader, and the way they each walked made it very obvious that one was male, and one was female. Even their hand movements when they talked were distinct; making it clear who was a guy and who was a girl.

God, Himself, has done a WONDERFUL job at CLEARLY defining the distinctions between men and women. A pair of pants on a women will not confuse me as to her gender.
I understand this I am not blind nor ignorant I even married a woman!

However think about this from a distance if the robes looked so much alike why were they never mistaken?????

There have been many times from a DISTANCE I could not distiguish the sexes until the parties came closer.

I have never really had a problem telling the difference between a man or woman from a distance. It's pretty easy to tell just from the shape, walk, gestures, etc. And I think my list above pretty much explains HOW people could tell the difference between men & women who wore only robes. Their size, frame & shape are a dead give-away. Not to mention facial hair on men. Facial bone structure between men and women are EXTREMELY different. And as I said, the way they walk, move, etc. Do you REALLY have trouble distinguishing between the sexes????? I find that hard to believe. There are so many differences!

Even a man who acts feminine... I can tell from a distance, because his gestures and movements are so exaggerated. Same with a masculine woman - the way she move is exaggerated... not natural at all.

Am I the only person who can tell the difference between a man and a woman who both wear appropriate pants? Come on! How silly.

And then you can't be absolutely sure.

At times that has been so and sometimes I think they can't tell.

You think it's EASIER to tell the difference between the sexes AT A DISTANCE when someone is wearing ROBES as opposed to PANTS???

As I best recall the scripture does not give any distance requirements for being able to distinguish between the sexes.

Whether a man and a woman are both wearing similar robes or a Pentecostal dress on the woman and a white long sleeved shirt on the man I doubt you could tell which is the man and which is the woman from a quarter mile!
