Bible Note: Hi, Mom... of course, we understand that kilts were designed as clothing for men. Slacks can be designed for women or for men. A man ought not wear clothing that was designed for women. Nor ought a women wear clothing that was designed for men. Such prohibitions are against transvestitism, rather than prescribing how folks ought to dress in church. |
