Bible Question: I UNDERSTAND THAT MEN WORE SKIRTS IN THAT ERA---SO HOW CAN THERE BE A DIFFERANCE IN MALE/FEMALE GARB? COULD THE REFERANCE TO CLOTHING BE A WARNING TO HOMOSEXUALITY??? |
Bible Answer: Hello Ollienorma4, Every society has differentiation of attire between the sexes. I cannot claim to understand what this particular difference is, but obviously they new it. Something interesting that I learned in the past year (and I wish I could remember where I found it) was that in ancient societies, it was common for women to wear the slacks for modesty. That way men wouldn't be tempted to look up their tunics. Steve P.S. Words typed in upper case is considered shouting in internet etiquette. |
