Re: Crossdressing...Just how does a woman particip

ITEMS OF CLOTHING
Both women and men wore a loincloth, the equivalent of underpants. This was a long thin strip of cloth which was wound around the waist and then between the legs, with the end tucked in at the waist. Women probably wore some sort of binding around their breasts.
The main garment, worn by both women and men, was the halug, a tunic. This was made of two rectangular pieces of cloth joined in a long seam along the top of the arms, with a hole left for the head to go through. It also had a seam running down both sides, with holes left for the arms.
The halug could be gathered up in a bunch at the shoulders, either with a clip or a tip-loop, or it could be tucked up at the waist if heavy work was being done. Halugs made of fine linen or wool could be draped to fall gracefully.
The halug was worn with a belt, either leather or metal, the decoration depending on the wealth of the wearer.
A cloak could be worn over the halug. The edges and fringes of the cloak were often decorated.
When women went into public places, they wrapped their long hair in a piece of cloth. This cloth held their hair in place and acted as a head covering in the hot climate. It could also be used as a face covering. Rebecca used it to hide her face when she first met Isaac ( Genesis 24:65).
Total veiling, as worn by some Islamic women today, was not practiced. Sarah's beauty was obviously visible to those around her ( Genesis 12). Rebecca was not veiled when she was drawing water from the spring ( Genesis 24:16).
Ancient people loved to decorate themselves with jewelry, which, as today, was valued for its beauty and for the status it gave to its owner. Every woman had jewelry, which was part of her personal wealth.
If it was part of her dowry, it would be worn conspicuously, especially on festival days when prospective suitors might be visiting the village.

Just like God did in the Garden of Eden?

The male robes had breaches.
Here is some more info. from Rabbi Shraga Simmons
MEN'S CLOTHING AND WOMEN'S CLOTHING
Even though in the old days everyone wore robes, the robes made for men were different than the robes made for women. Therefore, if a man were to wear a woman's robes (or vice versa) they would be in violation of the Torah commandment that states: "Male garb shall not be on a woman, and a man shall not wear a feminine garment, for anyone who does so is an abomination of the Almighty." ( Deuteronomy 22:5)
The Book of Mitzvah Education, Sefer HaChinuch, explains that the purpose of this mitzvah is to help maintain a separation between the sexes. If, however, men and women were to wear each other's clothing, they would eventually become intermingled with each other constantly until they would be so mixed together they would fall into licentiousness. (The Book of Mitzvah Education, Sefer HaChinuch #542)

There were small differences, just like there are differences in men and women's pants.
The male robes had breeches? 
In the year 2011, we still have the MEN'S section and the WOMEN'S section in the department stores. That's because we STILL have a distinction in clothing.

NITW, would you wear a pair of women's jeans? Not ones with flowers, but plain ol' jeans? If not, why?
