Contrary to UPC thought, pants are not the opposite of skirts/dresses.

this statement above is a flat out lie, you people tend to have a hard time with truth and keeping your facts straight. Talk about a spirit of confusion, you people have it bad~ You teach another gospel another way other then Grace, you are standing on dangerous grounds with God!

Back to subject~

Deut 22:5 IS NOT ABOUT PANTS~ PLEASE SHOW BIBLE TO BACKUP THIS FLAT OUT LIE YOU LOVE TO INFORCE AS A HEVEN OR HELL!

Do you consider men who wear women's pants to be cross-dressing? Or do you feel that it's ok, cause they are, after all (according to the UPC) to be men's apparel in disguise?
heavenly one~ I live out in the sticks, I kid you not you'll see it here. Many of the young teenage guys wear gals pants it's the fad right now, and you can tell, they fit really wrong in the private places, guys pants hang in the crouch, womens don't ~

then your lines of distinction are blurred. that's why I asked and you wouldn't give me a direct answer, could we come and sing and have the men wear dresses with lace and the women wear blue jeans ??

God did well enough on His own to make a distinction between the sexes. In general:

Men grow facial hair, women do not.
Men bald with age, women do not.
Men have a larger, broader frame; women have a smaller frame.
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 find it strange that people talk about how pants blur the gender distinctions lines when until 400 years ago, men and women wore the same similar garment. There are some who aren't realizing this even though it's been posted numerous times now.

Funny you should mention the above story though, cause I saw several teens walking down the street the other day and I was able to tell who was male and who was female even though they were all wearing pants.

How on earth could a person distinguish between the sexes back in biblical times when both men & women wore robes?




























(TIC, of course.)

H1, I'm sure everyone realizes that both men & women wore similar garments years ago. For them to discuss & acknowledge it would present quite a dilemma [for them]... don'thcha' think?

Afterall, how would Deut. 22:5 be explained knowing that men & women dressed in similar attire when this scripture was written???? Even a quick/brief study on this scripture will prove that it is not saying that women cannot wear women's pants. And, it's been asked several times but not answered; WHY won't men here on AFF wear pants bought from the women's department? For some reason, this question has been ignored, forum after forum.

Wearing women's pants would make them cross-dressers, but they can't admit it because it creates a paradox for them.

I don't see what the big deal is in being honest.
