Ladies, please don't copy her lifestyle because such makes you an abomination to God.

Deuteronomy 22:5 (KJV)
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 L ORD thy God

ShawttySoFyne:
Does Deuteronomy 22:5 forbid women from wearing pants? No, it doesn’t. In fact, clothing “that pertains to a man” at the time the verse was written would not have been understood to mean pants. Men in the Middle East through the history of the Old and New Testaments did not ordinarily wear pants, trousers or slacks; they wore robe-like garments. And in many cultures such as in China, women have commonly worn pants. The scripture more specifically addresses and forbids transvestism and cross-dressing.
The underlying principle certainly applies to today. Men should dress in an appropriately masculine manner and women should dress in an appropriately feminine manner. Clothing manufacturers make pants designed for men, and pants, slacks and pantsuits designed for women. The Bible emphasizes modesty, and for women, slacks are often more modest than a short skirt.
God does not intend for this scripture to be understood in an extreme or unreasonable way.

FruitCakes:
And where does it state that trousers is for men??

alBHAGDADI:
So what are the clothes belonging to men that women aren't supposed to wear? Please mention them.

When did women start wearing trousers?

Is it not of recent?

Now compare it to when men have been rocking it.

What you are basically saying is that if men start wearing skirts and dresses now, then in the next 20 years, skirts and dresses won't be consider feminine alone but masculine also.

Women increasingly wore trousers as leisurewear in the 1920s and 30s, and working women, including
female pilots, often wore trousers .How's that one recent?

alBHAGDADI:
How close is that to men wearing trousers since time immemorial?

alBHAGDADI:
To you, women also have their own trousers, the one that shows how round their backside is and also their cameltoe. Do you think the Bible was wrong when it said women should stay away from wearing what pertains to a man? The Bible knows that a man's way of dressing, if practiced by a woman, will bring seduction. A woman's curves prevail more when she wears trousers meant for men. It becomes worse when they trim it to make it tight and slim-fitted.

Look, it is just in modern times that women started wearing trousers. It was never so in the 70s. If you did it back then, you would be considered a wicked person. Trousers have always belonged to men. Yes, men of the Bible times might not have worn pant trousers, but the Bible was referring to whatever they wore as masculine then. Today, every right thinking person knows that trousers are for men. It is just of recent that gay and filthy designer's started making the one for women. It was never so in the past. As long as the concept has always been that it belongs to men, then a woman wearing it now, regardless of the style, is an abomination to God.

Same way if men start wearing dresses and skirts simply because some satanic Italian designers decide to flood the market with MEN DRESSES & SKIRTS. To a believer, no matter how you try to sugarcoat it by saying the dress or skirt is for men, it will still be what it is - feminine.

Mintum:
do the pictures below look modern to you? Women have been wearing trousers long before your parents were even born

Mintum:
Men had not been wearing trousers since time immemorial my friend. Male Trousers were also a modern invention at a point in history so was female trousers

alBHAGDADI:
When it was invented, was it for women first or for men?

If men start wearing skirts today, will that nullify the fact that it was originally made for women?

alBHAGDADI:
Do the pictures look like they were taken years before cameras were invented?

Izabel:
[b]History reveals that women in some cultures wear trousers while men in some other cultures wear skirts down to this day.
People who condemn ladies that wear trousers are very ignorant and self righteous, which isn't same as righteous in any way. They are the ones who are weak and need serious help.
If we are to go by what our culture permits, males won't even be wearing trousers. They will be tying wrappers on their waist. The same wrapper that women tie on their chest. So what is the difference ?
Its good to be enlightened Mr.

IdreamOfUnicorn:
So Christianity should be based on what is "now considered"?
So you tell an Irish man to do away with his kilt, which is ingrained in him as his identity because of what? The same Irish who massively propagated Christianity in Africa?

Never read such myopic and senseless writeup in my life.
It is too early on this sunday morning to read hate based religious sentiments.
Who made you judge and executioner? Knowing who belongs to heaven and who belongs to hell.
U are now the ONE thinking and concluding for God.
Chai! With this kind of Christians in Nigeria I'm awed.

Confusion,
"They combine common sense with Bible verse to prove their point, if you argue with them to common sense level, then they say the Bible supersede common sense"

IdreamOfUnicorn:
Think you're actually the one that needs to go learn history.
Trousers were first invented because robes are uncomfortable to wear on horseback. In fact, those who wore trousers in battle had the upper hand over those who wore robes. For this reason, civilisations all over the world adopted this form of dress to survive battle.
The first recorded reports of trousers were made by sixth century BC Greek geographers. They noted the appearance of Persian, Eastern and Central Asian horse riders. The comfort they provided from extended periods on horseback made trousers a practical choice.
Images of male and female horse riders wearing trousers can be found on ancient ceramics. You can see an example of this on the vase below, depicting an Amazon woman.

Stop being hypocritical and go read a book.

alBHAGDADI:
What makes the Irish man different from cross dressers?

Why not continue with human sacrifice and idol worship which as your culture before Christianity came?

Don't you even know that the Israelites were asked to dump some of their practices and culture after Jesus died and resurrected? Yet you feel the Irish man should continue wearing skirts.

IdreamOfUnicorn:
"in ancient Israel, there were no men or women clothing. They all wore robes and no one cared but if a woman was on her monthly period, she was considered unclean and everything associated with her was unclean also until it was washed.
Some men (probably out of laziness or ignorance) would wear their wife’s robes and if they wore their wives robes who was “unclean” and entered into the temple, they had also made the temple unclean and unfit for the presence of GOD. (even if it was unknowingly). They would also make anyone or anything they touched unclean and this was the reason for that particular verse.
Trousers are not a western attire but a Persian attire. After the Persians were defeated by the Greek in 480BC, the Greeks were surprised to see that the enemy wore a strange attire (which were trousers) as opposed to their traditional robes and thus, the adoption of trousers began. It is important to note that it never started as a male attire but rather for convenience in battle.
Another example is heels. Originally, it was made for men who wore them in battle to avoid their legs slipping off from the stirrups when they stood to shoot their arrows but when the invention of guns and tanks entered the battlefield, heels were ditched and later became a fashion attire for women.
Pls let’s learn from history and also do our research. Google is free."

alBHAGDADI:
Which sex use to go for war in those days? I believe your answer is Males. Shouldn't that tell you that it was developed for them and not for females?

When did women start going to war?

alBHAGDADI:
If according to you, the children of Israel all wore robes with no difference, then what you are saying in essence is that God was joking when he said women should not wear what pertains to a man, likewise men should not wear what pertains to a woman.

Let man be a liar

I'm awed by what you just wrote. I would have thought you were Jehovah's witness. Their research is always so thorough

alBHAGDADI:
The Bible verse is the word of God which draws the conclusion, not me. I only pointed it out to sincere minds whom I believe will obey, not for folks like you who never believe in God.
