Do men wear apparel too? Why don't men wear robes? Seriously.

Are you saying that whatever men decide to wear is culturally acceptable... And whatever THEY choose, women cannot wear?? So, if men began wearing skirts (or kilts) in our country - that would become the "norm" and women would no longer be able to wear them...? Is that what you're saying? LOL

Tell me this, H1... If I go visit Scotland, could I wear a plaid skirt; or would I be cross dressing? Just want to be prepared, just in case.

again, the Key word is PERTAINETH
Exactly! And pertaineth means what? And how does that relate to pants but not shirts?

Our culture today says you don't have to wear them anymore.

Women, on the other hand, are stuck dressing like we did 100 years ago, according to Thad.

I wonder why they both wore robes in NT days then. Maybe they were all wearing unisex clothing.

That man on the bathroom sign doesn't have hair.....neither for men nor women, Thad. Do you have hair?

If you visit another country and their man on the bathroom sign has a robe on, will you change clothes before entering?

The bathroom sign argument is weak. Even those who agree in no pants on women agree with me on that.
Oh man! Do I really have to dress like the stick figures on bathroom doors? But, I prefer to dress like THESE stick figures!

Well, men were the first to wear stockings and high heels, now look who took over those items!

And if you wear a skirt that resembles a kilt, make sure you wear something underneath......something the Scots don't do.........
