[quote=Anonymous]I come from a very strict Southern Baptist family. While I am an atheist, my brother totally embraced the religion. His family do not allow the females to wear pants. It's more of a "dress your sex" thing rather than modesty. They believe it is a big sin for a woman to wear men's clothing, or for a man to wear women's clothing. The modesty thing would be that they wear long skirts rather than short. I have a Muslim friend who observes hijab (modest dress and scarf - not full face veil). She (along with many Muslims) believes pants are immodist for women to wear because they show the shape of the legs. However, she says that as long as the woman wears a long tunic over the pants - that covers the butt and thigh area - it's okay. [/quote]
