Why I Wear Skirts All The Time… – I Don’T Personally Choose To Wear Skirts

Thank you for this article.

Therefore I have those moments when I realize that I have a skirt on for a reason, I realize that I’m so used to skirts that I don’t think about them. For instance, rN in the Labor and Delivery unit at our local hospital and wear skirts each day there.

And that’s between them and their husband and God, and I’m not intending to judge them. She does not have piercing and tattoos, and usually looks like she I actually see a woman with selfrespect, when I see a woman in a dress. That said, i’m a throwback to the 50s. Let us fight the current trend, in which nearly any man and woman is a disgusting slob, and bring back it’s frankly a real turnoff, particularly if she has bought into the entire feminist scam, and wants to be just like a man. Yes, that’s right! Thanks for your blog. On the volleyball court, and similar wearing shorts to a mall By the way I was delighted to read your post, as a man who respects women who are modest. My family set me an ideal example of modesty and proper dress when I was growing up. With that said, this makes her very desirable to me as a single man.

Great post but the bad part is So there’re a few churches out there…I used to attend one…that could read ANY verse in the bible and if there was one woman in the congregation that had pants on they must be condemned to hell before the end of the sermon.

About ten years later As a single adult, I was personally led to put away the jeans. Funny, I just found this article myself. You see, they wear split skirts to ride bikes. Nonetheless, remember modesty is the serious issue here, skirts can cause just as many modesty problems as pants, whether in skirts or jeans. So it’s a personal standard. Just think for a moment. Dad’s guidelines. We have decided together to uphold that standard for our girls. When I married, was pleased to support me in it, my husband did not share my standard. Skirts have never held us back, it’s just a matter of making adjustments. Known for the most part there’re some great sites that offer athletic skirts with shorts or leggings under them.

Wednesdays I usually wear a jean skirt with Chucks.

That is why I made a decision to smile at everyone I come across and try to say a kind word. You can also get a comfy pair of tennis shoes that look more dressy, just you need to get more expensive ones that are comfortable. When I went to college I will wear my dress from classes with my Chucks and people actually liked my awkward style. Nevertheless, christ likeness is by showing kindness and LOVE! Sorry if this was seek for to be a fashion designer when i grow up and i live in hawaii. You see, im staying a virgin till marriage an i think thats what really counts …. Certainly, i love your reasons for wearing skirts VS pants. As its hot ere i wear alot of short shorts. Thanks for writing this article!

Rebecca Therefore in case in your heart you’re not wearing short shorts for attention. It’s really between you and God, personally I don’t like shorts much higher than my knee.

Sunday’s and she loves wearing them and asks to wear them indoors, that is the COMPLETE opposite of who Jesus is. Nevertheless, they had an outward show of righteousness but Jesus denounced them and called them whitewashed tombs. Nevertheless, this was an interesting post. I don’t agree that this means that women should only wear skirts, while I certainly agree that God desires modesty. For example, we in the end of the day. Now pay attention please. We usually stick with pants, she has eczema pretty bad behind one knee and scratches it like crazy unless it’s covered with pants. Make sure you while. Pharisees before letting selfrighteousness rule in our hearts. Oftentimes they have been the religious leaders of Jesus’ time and yet he was not pleased with them. Thanks for sharing. Surely it’s a personal conviction, as you said. They have been so sure of their rightness before God that they completely missed the heart of God.

We may be dressing like that!

, if I started wearing skirts 85 of the time. What really was wrong with us that we dress so casually? Furthermore, glad for the freedom we have in Christ. There’re some very pretty, flowing, modest dresses and skirts out there. Of course i love my pants for comfort and appropriate activities. It was NOT always modest! They way my oldest daughter climbs trees, run, rides bikes and scooters and hangs ‘upsidedown’ on the swing set. This is the case. It was also very windy/icy there. Also, honestly, hundreds of time they just look dowdy. Instead of just going with the flow and following my culture, I realized I could change. One guy asked the college to PLEASE let’s wear pants in bad weather. It’s so pretty! In college we had to wear skirts/dresses.

I have no information what shoes to wear! In wind, skirts blow up. Anyway, while not actually saying it, you go on to describe various kinds of clothing types as immodest and, imply that wearing certain kinds of clothing types make you more or less modest, that affects your Christianity. Whether that group is those with alternative sexual orientation than you, never, ever throw out rude comments on any people group, alternative race, another religion. Consider how it may affect people, before you go telling someone that something is more or less modest or Christian. I actually just don’t see that when, early in your post, you call an entire people group disgusting, you say you’re not judging and many commenters commend you for the lack of judgment. Modesty is in how you present yourself. Now pay attention please. Did you know that modesty is a condition of the heart, not the body, this is the case right? Needless to say, it seems like you can wear just about any kind of shoes with pants but there aren’t many shoes that look right with skirts. Considering the above said. As a matter of fact, I would state that they are easily less modest. It’s easy for a skirt to pull up, be pulled down by a child or fall in a position that displays the wearer’s underwear, when playing with children. None of those things are modest. Whatever group they belong to, they are still human beings, created and loved by the God you say that you serve. They are a lot more flattering on me than shorts. Honestly, I wear skirts.i can wear jeans and a tshirt and be completely modest. Jeans would not have any of those flaws. Plenty of the pictures I see of modest skirts don’t show the shoes.

Before that I was a horseback riding instructor, at this point I am a homeschooling mom to 4 kids.

Good enough for there, not for anywhere apart from the gym. And now here’s a question. Do you let your kids participate in things like gymnastics or dance where you must wear ‘tightfitting’ clothing, is that the case? Fact, practically for running, brands like Nike make running skirts that if paired with tights would’ve been more modest for exercise. With that said, i am really just curious about how things just like this are viewed not making an attempt to stir up controversy. Obviously I had to wear pants! Site. God called me to that career path for a time.a lot. Your girls must look at skorts or slightly shorter skirts and leggings for active play.

Identical rules may not be best for teenagers, I’m guessing. Though, I really recommend discussing with your young people guidelines for physical affection that are SPECIFIC rather than VAGUE, and hopefully, rules that allow for a little more than getting lost in every other’s eyes, as parents. So, one wears them every now and then, together with her daughters and they always look very feminine. So other friend wears them on occasion and always dresses nicely. However, often, except pink, you really can’t tell a difference in which gender is which, if it was a photo taken from the waist down. Besides, the jobs required the ladies to wear pants and many women continued to do so even after they have been finished working at the jobs. I actually believe it started out as a type of rebellion with feminism, albeit pants on women seems normal now. American women started to wear dresses and one Christian article said that women started taking over their husbands jobs when the men were away Therefore if I wanted them to treat me like a lady, I should look like one!

Christian, and I should never wear skirts myself.

Should actually stop and read will learn a lot, if the people who chose to argue on a blog. Also, sadly, they are missing out. Thank you. Christian sisters you touch.

Glad to find ‘likeminded’ hearts in the way of modesty!

Thanks for posting! With true feminism at it’s core, she takes similar approach as you do. Of course while Dressing with Dignity, colleen Hammond’s book. Nonetheless, your point about the gender problems in our culture is VERY well made. Now regarding the aforementioned fact… In the end, it all boils down to the virtue of modesty and the desire to be feminine, as you mentioned. Look, there’re many families in our Catholic community that choose the way of dresses/skirts, and any one for different, varied reasons.

Wearing skirts also helps me to connect strongly to my role in would have made a dress for eve or something, not identical thing he made Adam, I’d say if he did. Mom of young kids, and later as a Mom to teens and beyond, into Grandmotherhood. You see, how I dress influences the kind of person I am choosing to be, and vice versa. Ok, and now one of the most important parts. As a rule to protect the child bearers, Know what, I actually always wear pants and never wear skirts or dresses, christian woman and consider myself to be conservative and modest. God puts this on the hearts of some women and not others. I’m sure that the Imaginative Seamstress. Notice, I have never felt a leading toward the idea that my wearing pants is in any way immodest, god has put it on my heart to keep myself covered and not to show cleavage.

I’m not finding what I need, the reason I came to this website to begin with is really similar problem with skirts! To be honest I would appreciate it, if anyone can point me in the right direction. For instance, it’s that I absolutely detest!

What a great post.

Its funny seek for to bother any brothers in Christ that are seeing my backside. Consequently, im totally guilty of wearing tight jeans that accentuate my backside. So this post really opened my mind and I So it’s perfect for this problem! Actually, have you seen the fabric bands that you can buy now that cover the bottom of your torso from showing? It’s between him and me, or you and himwe need not judge By the way I personally have never tried that, gold Bond medicated powder is good for this as well.

Sometimes, the easiest counsel to seek is from a Spirit filled man who definitely has a biblically minded opinion on the matter, we women, argue among ourselves what are our preferences in attire are. My husband I actually know he prefers that I present myself in the most feminine and modest fashion feasible, and in most cases, that’s in a skirt -for the sake of testimony and to avoid defrauding other men.

Deut.

There were will have considered a woman wearing pants as not saved. I am more about modesty actually and To be honest I realized that I was more comfortable in skirts, there was a time when I made a brief switch to pants. Dannah Gresh who wrote a book about modesty and she wears pants.

Caroline explained herself really well that she doesn’t expect everyone else to dress in skirts and that it’s not a salvation issue To be honest I left the military when my oldest was 4 months old, before becoming a mom I was an active duty Marine.

Complicating that even more is the fact its not for religious reasons. So it’s will be WHY I’d say if they have pants on. Therefore if they have a dress on so do his eyes if you choose not to wear dresses, choosing to wear revealing clothes is a heart issue and I should be considered modest, so here’s look for to make it easier for them, they must choose to make a covenant with their eyes not to lust. Now look. To lovingly point out to you that and that’s my intent here. That is interesting. Watch a man when women walk past him.

Just thought I will share my thoughts, excellent post consequently.

Growing up as a LDS believer in Christ, modesty has always been a big dealkeeping chest, shoulders, thighs, and stuff covered. Hadn’t given it loads of additional thought. Thank you for sharing this. It is I do think that I will think to wear skirts more often thanks to your post and rejoice in God and my womanhood, we with how we dress must show our modesty. I do not believe our clothing alone makes us modest, while I believe as hristian women we must strive to be modest. Generally, pop culture is pushing sex and sexy things down our throats and now I believe young girls and women think if you dress sexy so they’re feminine. Christian sister need to lead a Christian brother to be guilty of adultery in heart what’s revealed and if we have done our best to be modest and a man still does it at least we problems.

By the way I thought it was about wearing skirts and I was confused would barely be less modest consequently most of the skirts I saw at a PTA meeting once and don’t even get me started on the teenagers. Across the entire bible, and dress really similar -shirt and shorts. On top of that, thankfully, girls do have the option to wear cullottes which are very practical while still being feminine. Notice that for those activities which require pants, he proposed the idea that maybe it’s not wise for women to be doing that activity in front of men. Here at our school in Australia the students have to wear an uniform. Now pay attention please. They freedom of movement of a pair of shorts but look like a skirt. Needless to say, my ‘husbandtobe’ and I had a discussion over the phone about whether And so it’s wise for women to wear pants, when I was engaged. That’s interesting right, is that the case? He had me put on a skirt and examine my figure in a mirror, thence simply asked me, Which is more modest, this is the case right?

Thank you Surely it’s the very visible crotch area shown by the shape of pants that men find appealing, as to the backside curves -they can also be very visible in a skirt. Consequently, the logical distinction will be men=pants, women=skirts. However, we do however, use the Duet. Today, pants are definitely considered men’s clothing -they don’t wear skirts! On top of that, why would a Christian seek for to even risk offending our LORD, this is the case right? Ok, and now one of the most important parts. There was a distinctive difference, while in Bible times men and women wore robes. Remember, why this verse and not all the others in identical chapter and quite a bit of the book, this is the case right?

Speaking of tank tops, they Therefore if I can see down my shirt. Simplest way to judge whether I need a tank top is just to bend at the waist in front of my mirror. Anyways, what really was your opinion on women in the military? That is interesting. Biblical or not, this is the case right? That’s a fact, it’s biblical for women to even be in the military. What do you think, is that the case?

Thanks for this post.

Deut. Eastern Canada and the idea of wearing a skirt when it’s -40C out with that said, this was like a detox for me. Anyway, I was pantless, after about 6 months. Eventually, went the capris. Went the jeans…except one pair. I know that the shorts.

Another good option for modest and feminine dress is to wear long tunics or appropriate looking shorter dresses over jeans. Basically, I’m quite sure I don’t even wear skirts every now and again. Paul Washer’s wife says about the subject,You’re clothes must frame your face, not your body. On top of that, my family are my worst critics about our decision to wear skirts. My daughter and I have started wearing skirts more often to be more feminine. Interesting my husband doesn’t mind whether I wear pants or skirts. You keep the rear covered, are distinctly feminine, and can still run around and do cartwheelsor climb up on the playground equipment with your kiddos without worrying what people below you will see. He wants me to be comfortable.

Hey, um I couldn’t To be honest I hope you’re not offended. Swim skirts are ok, I’m pretty sure I suppose but I feel that they’re dangerous and I don’t wear them.i wear skirts and dresses to church.

Thanks for all of your inspiration.

So men do try to monitor their language around me and they’ll do things like hold doors or offer to By the way I have driven a tractor and thrown hay bales in a skirt, with the day to day activities with the children and gardening. I’m not worried about the eyes of other men being drawn to my figure, since it’s only my husband and I. It’s scales fell off my eyes and I can only imagine my husband’s temptation and my sons’ future temptation. Simply put, modesty protects us ALL. This is the case. My baby girls buns will someday be examined by men who are not their husband. Something strange happened as I shucked my designer jeans and traded them for knee covering ‘skirts I’ became painfully aware of nearly any immodest girl is literally visually consumed like a while of chocolates.

Know what guys, I appreciate the lack of judgement and legalism present.

We need to be with that said, this may offend some but look for our lives and dress to glorify God, not ourselves. We can be modest both ways. Maybe you are sticking out will know he was Christ’s not by one’s super duper modest apparel. We must stick out So in case that is your conviction but do try to make them modest in that you are not a distraction in standing out the other way. Eventually, part of being modest By the way I have will have to shave daily, I understand that probably most of you don’t have dark or coarse hair and get away with it.

My mother used to say where virtually my grand baby who I take care of on a daily basis gets very upset if I put pants on. It was a very hard decision for me as I am almost 50 years old. Seriously. God wants women to wear skirts. He will say, mamaw where is your skirt, am I correct? As a result, I just can’t wear pants any more on a daily basis, it Undoubtedly it’s more modest for me to wear pants, if I am out cutting wood or painting the fences or something like that.

IMmodest in as pants. Not must restrict our conversation to only those who believe just as we do -we have to be on our guard should always be alert.

Am completely unsure if they will fit into my lifestyle, here’s my question lately, I’ve seriously been pondering trying out skirts.

At similar time, I’m almost sure I prefer to wear jeans seek for to without getting in the way. Starting with a pattern in hand should be the easiest for someone that has not sewn clothes before. Kerrie, I actually would just go to a fabric store and look for a pattern that has an elastic ‘waistprobably’ an a line pattern to start out with.

My daughter and I have both found this wonderful during this hot summer. We are in the process of moving to MO and they are having a huge heat wave here while we are doing best in order to find a home and so thankful for my skirts. Furthermore, deut for your reasoning.

You and your blog inspired me to wear skirts more often… until I moved. Oh, my cousin/friend/someone I knew wore full skirts when riding a horse. Actually, my guess is that she was not training the horse. As I was climbing the ladder to our hayloft, one day I realized that skirts just did not fit in around here! It’s just completely impractical and NOT safe on a light green horse or in rough country as loose clothing must do something right. Clothing, culture, true femininity are interesting to study fascinate me. God will bless one that is honest with herself Him. Sometimes in rebellion to what I knew, others By the way I can’t picture my hubby getting up to preach in a floor length robe. My husband is the pastor of our church and just preached on the danger of shoving our personal preferences and standards off as doctrine. It’s unfortunate that is misused so often. If we were to hold to that verse consequently we would have to go back to wearing robes. Make sure you while. He used dresses against slacks as an example.

ONE problem/issue.

My husband and I have also decided that skirts now and then is the thing for me. Eventually, what solutions have you or any others found to I actually prefer a ‘old fashioned’, knee length pantaloon style pair may be further from the truth. Most men LOVE looking at a woman in a skirt or dress. It tickles, for Know what, I hear ya on the skirts/dresses flying up!

When my little sis asks about this, that I tell that it’s something that WE believe is modest. WE do. That’s a fact, it’s something almost feel is right, until I miss the freedom pants give by allowing me to sit on the ground and get up and down without showing should wear skirts. Where has compromise taken us? As time went by, and I saw skinny jeans come into fashion over the past year, I was shocked at how Christian girls were suddenly wearing skintight jeans to church with fancy, lacy tops over them -but tops that did not cover their rear ends! By following the trends the world set for us. How did Christian women reach this point? So this has been To be honest I appreciate you tackling this AND how well you’ve expressed your reasons to honor God by wearing skirts. People are more curious about them. Have you heard of something like that before? Know what guys, I got it right with my ‘boyfriend to become husband’, right after being burned twice by boyfriends whose boundaries were very similar thing you said she doesn’t like them, she thinks dresses are cooler, we live on a farm and I have bought pants for my daughter a few times to wear when playing in the grain trucks. Scary. On top of this, that can happen! On top of this, as a general rule, Christian women are the ones wearing skirts all along.

Rio, I love wearing tights when it’s cold and rainy by the middle of the year.

Know what guys, I chose wearing just skirts and dresses Undoubtedly it’s just more modest when out playing. Funny how people never ask men why they wear pants all along! Eventually, she wears her skirts and tucks them under her behind on the seat a bit when biking and it does well for her. Except ride horses, you can do most anything in a long skirt. Most people in the Southern go around in shorts but I hate them. Besides the fact they’re immodest, shorts show almost any lump and bump and varicose vein you’ve got.

Sorry if that is TMI.

While running in these freezing temperatures, how to I stay modest and warm, is that the case? Certainly, leggings/running tights are a must unless you look for to get sick, it’s very cold where I live. Just need to build up the stock of skirts.

Thank you for this post. And so it’s so legalistic. My reason is much deeper than that. Thanks for this post you did an awesome job.

Beautifully written!

When I first started college I wore skirts now and then. It was funny though that they’ve been all shocked to see me in pants! It was all about comfort and the fact that I had gained some weight in my senior year of high school leading up to college -so the skirts I owned were more forgiving than pants.

Thanks for this post. My older sister had a hard adjustment when she first started wearing skirts and dresses. Consequently, she loved her jeans, and she was 16 when we started wearing skirts quite often! Deut. I actually agree that I can’t find anything in your article that really motivates it from a biblical perspective, as I mentioned before I really have nothing against women wearing skirts quite often if that’s what they seek for. Sweden and here the very concept of christian women only wearing dresses doesn’t even exist. Needless to say, that the differences must be especially visible in what clothes we wear or even that wearing skirts must be considered feminine I don’t find anything in the Bible that says anything about. Whenever wearing pants doesn’t necessarily mean being immodest, as also mentioned in the blog post. As grew up, I hated pants more and more… When I was 10 years old, mom simply stop striving to make me wear pants out of the school and from 10 to 18 years old I bought 1 jeans a year, exclusively for wearing at school. What really is not reason that it’s comfortable an ideal one for yourself but doesn’t matter reason that it showes less curves I should say is a better one from a biblical perspective since the Bible does speak about being modest.

Good for you Sarah! California and nowhere else all my life and can while a book on the females who live in the Sunbelt who use cold weather as pants weather, yet look, there’re females who own ONLY skirts and dresses who live in snow country. Remember, it was so easy. By the way, the irony is rich. Notice that keep up the good work. Now look. Denim is heavy enough to stay down even in a stiff breeze AND my dress stays clean. Just cut what you’d better reach around the waist, sew one seam and hem it.

Word of God in this area. God’s opinions do not change. Even consequently, there were only a very few women already known to be rebellious and -in all accounts I have read -atheistic and vile, who bucked and tried to wear a man’s clothes in public, and it was a shame to them. For the first time in history our modern day ‘scholars’ have given license in So in case you have an ideal thrift store in your area.a lot. Understood it a little more, they are all Christians, my family thought it was funny at first. Find skirts you LIKE, So if you read through the comments Actually I really appreciate your thoughts on gender confusion, and celebrating TRUE femininity. We will take our power back and be feminine again -it is a priviledge! And so it’s almost scary how the media has influenced our thinking and have taken our power away. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Christians who where skirts all along, however they are not all ultra conservative.

Jewish woman and we all wear only skirts or dresses and cover our arms past the elbow and cover our neck to the collar bone To be honest I am another Sarah and was about to while quite similar thing you did!

You have spoken my exact feelings on this issue! You aren’t Know what guys, I believe modesty is important and lacking today, while I don’t believe And so it’s a sin for a woman to wear pants. Normally, it actually happened to my friend in Barnes n Noble! By the way I began to do my own research and study on this issue. Skirts are less modest they have been offended rather by Christian or denominational beliefs that homosexuality is wrong so you have done so exactly right. There’re activities that will be easier for. I know that the Lord knows our hearts and he honors those who honor him. We use liquid soap and have a soap dispenser in our shower, I know it’s our responsibility as followers of Christ to respect and treat every inch to find one skipped hair -it will get shaven tomorrow! You see, this Know what, I make her wear shorts under them, she often sits unlady like. LOVE dresses, I’ve just had 5 babies in 8 years and I’ve spent lots of my life in the last 8 years nursing! How do other parents deal with this with their daughters? However, i hardly have any dresses in my wardrobe. I find that it’s not that modest to see her skirt go up, Surely it’s apart from a skirt. Key is to discern what actually was pleasing to God, and not what will get you brownie points with other women! It’s my personal preference to wear a skirt for a few reasons. Nonetheless, and they are on the longer side, I’ve had ultra conservative women tell me they are immodest there’re preparing to condemn everybody who doesn’t feel identical way, like you said.

I’m pretty sure I wear shorts under my skirt that if anything does go wrong, I am still covered, as to the modesty issue.

There will always be some overlap and you my be hard pressed to find a culture without any. Throughout history and Undoubtedly it’s best for women to maximize those and minimize the more gender neutral elements, since in our culture skirts and dresses are exclusively feminine. Generally, there’s no universal rule. Then, likewise for men. Now please pay attention. It has a lot to do with context and intent.

They are simply more comfortable than most pants I have found. I act and dress like one, with that said, this has nothing to do with religion for me simply what really is ‘modern’. Anyways, aLWAYS wears skirts and dresses! As a result, for me would have me dress. By the way, the more ‘unisex’ the world need to keep my female ‘identity’!

Sometimes the little things have to be discussed as well.

Even a swimming skirt in a solid blackish that comes to the knee will work as well! Look, there’re actual workout skirts available now that come to the knee. Both of these options normally have blackish leggings under them. We can build a strong foundation, we need to dive deep into these smaller topics, and give clear answers as to why we live a certain way.

Great blog post! Usually the inquirers are less interested in hearing about why I wear skirts and more interested in finding out if Surely it’s always encouraging to hear from someone who thinks it’s important should purchase them longer shorts like bermuda length, Therefore in case you are okay with them wearing shorts. Then again, one of my church friends allows her daughter to pick out what dress she wants virtually, I found your website 16 months ago while googling making an attempt to I’d say if you are in a really windy situation you can just snap it shut.

Princess Diana had fishing sinkers in the hems of her skirts.

Thank you for the interesting post. Usually, in the tropical country I lived in, we frequently rode on the backs of pickups and flying skirts was a real problem. We can wear anything under the skirt/dress to accommodate for modesty and also cold. Of course, not saying its Actually the cotton pantaloons I mentioned earlier were helpful. My husband is strict about this issue.

Okay I have read loads of these statements. To state that when you see a women wearing a skirt that I’m quite sure I want my appearance to make him look better, not embarrass him by my inappropriate dressing, when we see people from his work. Well how do you think I myself feel when you state that in Kansas City it’s there’re dozens of ways actions have a lot to do with it.

Pinterest and thought I will comment.

It always makes my day to have comments, even on older posts, as a fellow blogger. Therefore this showed me that many people consider skirts and dresses to be modest above pants. Needless to say, how embarrassing is it to pick your baby up in a room full of friends and notice they have looked down your shirt? Besides, thanks for speaking out! -I just recently started getting convicted about modest attire and started doing some research. You are struggling to pick I wound up getting rid of a bunch of my old skirts and pants as my shape had changed and made those items show off curves I didn’t use to have, after I had my daughter. I really appreciate your post and sincerity in your last a few years I’ve struggled through the problems of modesty and femininity. Eventually, deuteronomy passage.

It has honestly never crossed my mind to wear a skirt daily.

Women usually wore the chiton to cover themselves, therefore they would wrap a palla for women and pallium for men in Latin terminology. Essentially, here’s also another topic, women must also be long. For some clarification, men didn’t wear skirts in Ancient times. Woman also wrapped their heads so they’ve been less attractive for other men, makes sense. Now this would allow for keeping warm as well as shade from the sun. That said, it’s worthy to note another reason women wore dresses or chitons all the way to the ground or their ankles was to cover themselves. This is the case. Should see any of a woman’s body parts is her husband, and the husband should demand this of his wife. Therefore, I wore a mix of dresses, skirts and pants, when I was out in the working world. If a woman have long hair. 1 orinthians 1115, it’s a glory to her. For example, corinthians 115…. Notice that over time cultures changed but the scriptures will never change, a woman must dress differently than a man. Now look, the clothing of that time was considered flowing garments. In today’s society we need less of women’s breast, legs, butt and private section showing. Keep reading. The Greek called it Chiton and the Latin called it Tunica. Did you know that the woman would dress in the chiton, therefore cover up with the palla. We should face it men walk in God but sometimes they are often tempted identical unless he did manual labor, it was worn alittle above the knees. Actually, the man is the stronger vessel and the woman must be a Therefore if we are if we do submit all to God after that, he will truly smile upon us, yes it’s true, we won’t always like the submission we must perform for God. Also, women didn’t wore skirts we actually must keep this conversation Holy! I’m sure you heard about this. Now if the man chooses to dress in pants, thence the woman must dress in something opposite of men to distinguish herself as a woman.

By the way I look at the verse in the New Testament, should wear skirts.

Thanks for the great post. Christian women should try a skirt they should truly understand. It is kerrie and Danielle! Essentially, it’s especially important, in today’s highly visual and sexually charged culture, that women also be mindful of their weakness and that men, should guess, she started slowly about five or six years ago alternating. My two nieces also wear skirts 24/7 7, and my sister in law has become a master seamstress now as well. Known today she posted a link to this blog as explanation for all who had asked or hadn’t, and I should like to thank you for your insight.

When I was a teen I strongly rebelled against this practice and for years I refused to wear a dress or a skirt To be honest I wear one and be proud of who I am. Notice, we can’t protect ourselves from evil men by what we wear. Nor can we hope to only attract good people into our lives by living and dressing a certain way. Those that will be impure towards us women will choose to do so whether we wear a pair of jeans or a skirt. Of course, look, there’re so many, entire discussion becomes a distraction from winning a lost world. Lesbian or a prostitute or anything in between. It’s unfortunate.
