Re: Cross Dressers
My understanding is this ,the priest in the old testament under the old Levite priest hood were all man.They had to wear britches as they would walk above the people on platforms.They wore these leggings to cover themselves under their robes. This was modesty issue.
Please notice that God did not ordain any woman to be a preist in the Levite preist hood.Neither does he today.Hebrews13:8 God does not change.
So those that believe in woman preachers, it is prettystrange that you will want them to macrh up and down the pulpit and redicule every man that say they have no right to preach.Yet you will not condone them to wear britches while doing his.
If a woman has the right according to some on here to preach like a man, then she also has the right to cross dress while she preaches.Now let us not hold to any double standards.
If a woman usurps authority overa flock against Pauls warnings in the scripture then she should also waer the priste garments also.They were britches.
So if its ok for a woman to preach ,then its also ok in the eyes of God for her to wear man's britches while doing so.
So I have there fore become your enemy because I tell you truth.

Re: Cross Dressers
I'm confused by your premise. Are you AGAINST women preachers? Or FOR women wearing britches?
And, where did you find the info about men wearing britches under their robes?

They were as distinct as today's men's/women's pants.

If a man that wears a kilt is called Scottish, what is a Scottish woman that wears a kilt?

What's your point again? 
Let's take a look at our dusty old Bibles and see if we can find any guidance about these Sybarites who have come to vex you.
Deuteronomy 22:5, is the text that you neglected to take. No matter, I have found it here.
"The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God."
Now, the first thing that I notice is that the word "pants" isn't even a part of the inspired discussion. Further, from taking a little extra time to look at the pictures in some of these old dusty Bibles I notice that no one at all wore pants in those days!
The issue that has come to our attention here is " that which pertaineth unto a man" and what is meant by " a woman's garment." Pants are not even mentioned.
So as long as you cut back on the embroidery and rhinestones on your blue jeans I don't think anyone's going to confuse your pant's for a pair of ladies pants. For you to wear such a garment would be "an abomination" unto the Lord akin to eating shrimp and lobster tails.
Would you call every man who ever wore a skirt a "cross dresser?"
Psalm 133.
