This Topic is deep I will take a portion and pray the Holy Spirit gives light and understanding there is no specific cloth for both male and female God sew same apron/garment for both Adam and eve after discovery of their nudeness now a lot happened from then to the point God came with this rule and the reason was to avoid any form of transfer of impurity to one another as wife you should not put on ur hubbys jacket if you do u contradict this law as a hubby you can't tie ur wife's wrapper for any reason remember when a lady is on she is unclean if you touch anything she has touched makes you unclean so to avoid issues of impurity God decided to imbibe that law as a man also there are many things that make you unclean and if anyone also comes in contact with what you contact becomes unclean wearing trousers are choices for me I don't like it for my hubby's sake but not contradicting the scriptures if i wears it as long as it does not makes me unclad to others and if I disobey him I disobey my lord who is accountable unto the Lotd

How could you write this way. Difficult to read ma, no fullstop, no coma, question marks or apostrophe. Please improve on your mode of writing.

Op is 100% right.

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.

So, Christians should search the Koran for biblical answers. If you don’t have wisdom, the Bible enjoins you to ask and you’ll be given freely. With wisdom, please ask for understanding as well.

Not to offend you or anything but, you're really not making sense. It's one thing to be religious, it's another to be smart.

The trousers you're talking about, nobody ever said it was made for men alone, nobody ever said only women can wear earrings or braid their hair. It's the same way another denomination will tell you that it's wrong for women to braid or wear earrings. Its all your beliefs, God never said any of that. Some men will frown at others that have dreadlocks, forgetting that Samson had it too. You'll train your kids and the people around you the way you want, but don't come out here and tell people it's what God 'said'

Why the fu.k would anyone want to read a book that demeans women. Sexist religion.

I don’t really understand why Christians make an issue out of nothing. What I have come to understand from reading the Bible is actions should be judged based on intentions. That is why we often leave judgement to God as it is difficult to know the true intentions of others. People should dress attractively. But if one dresses with the intent to seduce, then there lies the problem. People who condemn ladies wearing trousers I believe are myopic.

Even christian urhobo men tie wrappers during weddings because of their tradition. In this part of the world, wrapper is dominant among the women so, why are they not quoting "a man shall not wear what partains to a woman"

SHOULD FEMALE BELIEVERS WEAR TROUSERS? Gloria Bamiloye answers…

Deuteronomy 22:5 KJVS
[5] 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.

The scripture does not specify the cloths for the man and the one for the woman from this verse. And so it depends on what each country ,nations ,Tribe accepts as the cloth for the man or for woman
For example in our country Nigeria ,there are so many tribes and tongues not to talk about the world. This scripture therefore does not specify but the Lord expect us to now walk with our initiatives on how a child of God should dress based on where he or she comes from.

In the western world, Men and women wear trousers. Women have her own special way of sewing their trousers and the same with men.

In Africa, we have some who wear trousers while majority don’t.

Now coming down to our country, in yoruba land, culturally, ladies don’t wear trousers while men wear. In some parts of Nigeria, in some tribes, men tie wrapper like women
Because of these varieties in tribes and culture all over the world it is difficult to say this is how somebody should dress. In Scotland for example, men wear skirt like women.
1 Corinthians 8:9 KJVS
[9] But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours become a stumbling block to them that are weak.

Even though we have liberty to put on whatever we feel like wearing, we must not become stumbling block for others who are weak. That is to say according to Paul if ordinary eating of meat will course your brother to stumble away from faith ,he said he will not eat meat again

1 Corinthians 8:11-13 KJVS
[11] And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died? [
12] But when ye sin so against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, ye sin against Christ
[13] Wherefore, if meat make my brother to offend, I will eat no flesh while the world standeth, lest I make my brother to offend.

Jesus did not come to the world to die for himself. He came for you and me. He denied himself of his glory coming to the world and working around touching lives. He became poor so we can be rich. He did everything for the souls of men.
My brethren, if we are saved, it is not only for you. You are saved to rise up for others. So you are not to be concerned about only your comfort . Think about others who are looking up to you. Wearing of trousers or not is not actually the issue because many born again sisters are wearing other things more terrible than trousers because according to them, they love to be comfortable.

There are some terrible trousers people wear these days that reveal all the shape and contour of their bodies same with very tight and mini skirts.
Where is the love of God in us if our intention is to cause others to fall?
You may not know but that is the target of the enemy.

We were coming from outside the country some times ago, and at the airport I saw a married lady with her child and husband following. She wore a very tight pair of jeans trousers which exposed her in a very seductive way . It was too tight that it is difficult to explain. Such a lady is married, but to her she just wanted to wear something she loved to wear, without considering the impact on others. That is not love.

A Christian has liberty in Christ, but the Word of God cautions us to be careful how we use this Liberty. So we won’t make somebody to stumble away from faith.
There so many young converts who are not so strong in faith like you are. If you allow any of them to fall out of faith because of your comfort, God will not take it lightly with you.
Mark 9:42 KJVS
[42] And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea.

A sister was telling me why she decided not wear trousers again. She and her friend went for evangelism her friend

The thread should have been closed after the Op's post. People will just argue and argue and at the end, one would not agree with the other.

dingbang:
Wearing trousers has nothing to do with sin


Biologically, the woman's body is an open system and as such, its advised she wears clothes that will aerate her body cuz down there has to breathe! But what do we have now, ladies wear pants together with tight shorts and jeans together and walk under a hot weather. This is the main cause of smelly vagina.

Lmao... this cutehector ehn, you’re a very hilarious fellow.

miketayo:


this is a very myopic way of thinking.. God does not look at the outside but whats in you. hope you know not only dressing makes men have sexual feelings against the opposite sex.
we only consider things indecent cos that is what our community has made us believe. If u work in a place where everyone is naked, after the first few months you wont even realize they are naked again it becomes a normal thing. Infact most people u say have a very modest dressing normally have the worst characters, we see em everyday

no normal person been a man should be comfortable working with semi unclads, most men are moved by what they see, that including you, I am first of all a human before been a child of God, and I have been taught to run away from every evil appearances, what you see is what gets conceived In your mind bros, even most men of God would let you know that, in terms of pictogram and adverts, the devil is the master chess player in those sector, do not deceive your self o, most ladies play down on this simply because they know it and are sent from the pits of hell to get men down,this things are spiritually orchestrated. I am a clergy and I understand this games. i am not analysing this for the carnal mind to phantom sir,and if you still see it your way then it means my message ain't for your type sir. How many men have you heard get fantasy over an average Islamic lady putting on her full hijab regalia? None, because you have no picture to lust over on her dress sense.i grew up in the north and I know what decency can be.most of the exposed breasts and and nyanshes you see on social media belongs to those of your 'intelligent,brillliant. Holy spirit led,tongue speaking, educated and god-fearing'Christian ladies on earth (quote me wrong bros)this is because you guys have lost your true identity and threw away your god given decency. To the air.i don't wanna be cross with your posts sir, just use your brains and stop been carnallyminded like the average Nigerian Christian I know.we are saying ladies are getting too very indecent with dress sense this days you are here defending the mundane

Answer this simple question Is it right for a man to wear skirt?

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

It's quite sad that bible teaches that women shouldn't wear trousers because they seduce men..
The misogyny is sickening.
Why should women be made to suffer because of men? Should men stop wearing trousers because women are seduced, or they don't think that is possible?
Trousers are very comfortable for women and most times more practical.
But the comfort of one gender should be removed because men are seduced? Why is it a big deal that men are seduced?
Men will manage.

Everyone gets seduced. We just call on our self control, respect ourselves and move on.

Gullah:
There has always been heated arguments among Christians and Christian denominations as regards the position of the Bible on wearing of trousers by women. I also had been conflicted about this at certain stages of my development as a Christian but after thorough and thoughtful examination of this matter, I came to a conclusion and I will outline my own argument on this issue with this thread.

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 Lord thy God.

This Bible passage above is where the entire controversy over appropriateness of Christian women wearing trousers or not emanate from

1. Note that it made not specifically talking about women wearing trousers, it does not even mention the word trouser as it wasn't even in existence then. It was talking about what we call Cross-dressing today so the question is should women wearing trousers today be seen as an example of cross dressing?

Trousers were not our clothing in this part of the world, it was a dressing we borrowed from western culture so if we are to determine if it is male or female clothing or not, we need to look to those that own the culture. From my research, the earliest appearance of trousers in human history were in Asia and much later in Europe and much of what we call the western world today.

The question is did women wear trousers in Asia and the western world or was it only for men? The truth is their women wore trousers and it is not a modern thing, they had been wearing trousers long before Christianity came to Nigeria. If Among the people that invented this trousers, women wear trousers, how did Africans who borrowed the culture come to conclude that it is only a man's wear? There are lots of evidence in historical arts that women wore trousers as far back as even before Jesus came.

2. Deuteronomy 22 is a Chapter with 30 verses all giving commandments to be obeyed by the Israelites in those days. They include commandments like,

Verse 9: Do not plant two kinds of seed in your vineyard; if you do, not only the crops you plant but also the fruit of the vineyard will be defiled.

Verse 11: Do not wear clothes of wool and linen woven together.

Verse 12: Make tassels on the four corners of the cloak you wear e.t.c

The chapter even advocates for the stoning to death of a woman found not to be a virgin on her wedding night. So my question is why do some Christians zero in on only verse five and try to condemn people with it? Why not advocate for the implementation of the entire commandments in that chapter of the Bible? After all, Jesus said if you fail in one, you have failed in all.

My advice to Christians is that Jesus came and became a fulfillment of the law, in other words, he fulfilled all the requirements of the law and introduced an era of grace where it is faith in Him and not observance of the law that brings salvation. It is a deception by the enemy to make us believe that after receiving salvation by grace through faith in Christ, we need to maintain that salvation by trying to observe all old testament laws and commandments.

I completely agree with your view,but personally I believe the issue should be about wearing trousers in a manner meant to advertise n promote imorality such as low waist trousers, trousers meant to expose camel toe etc which constitutes indecency.
