Description ▲
Deuteronomy 22:5 has long been used by various "holiness" groups as a text against women of today wearing pants. "Should a Christian Woman Wear Pants?" begins with a study of this verse of Scripture. It presents a study of ancient Biblical dress, the history of pants, and answers the question of who was first to wear pants, men or women? It also pinpoints the exact date in history and the circumstances surrounding the separation of clothing styles with men in pants and women in dresses. A lesson in American history is presented of how the country's first "feminists" and dress reformers destroyed the association of male superiority with bifurcation, prevalent in the country's culture, and introduced feminine trousers. The book takes clothing out of the incorrect realm of "holiness" and salvation and into the correct category of culture and history.
