Do You Think Pants Are Modest For Women?

--- Quote from: jdl4ever on January 28, 2008, 07:00:40 PM ---Rabbis are not allowed to make any new Rabbinical decrees in our time (with rare exceptions like the Gadol Hador making one accepted by most of Israel) since there is no Sanhedrin. Just about all Rabbincal decrees ever made are recorded in the Talmud. Therefore, there is no "Rabbinical Decree" ever made specifically against wearing pants anywhere in the Talmud. I don't know who made this nonsense up. The only reason why it used to be forbidden was that it used to be a male's only form of clothing and this is a Torah prohibition. Nowadays I see no logic why pants should not be allowed as more women wear pants than skirts in many areas.

Yes.
African men wear long 'dresses', so why aren't they banned as 'mens clothing'.

By hundreds of millions of africans and Indians, yes.
In Scottland men wear kilts.
The point is; who is to say what constitutes 'mens' clothing and in what country does the Rabbinical ruling apply?

The Rabbis are to say what constitutes men's clothing, and you'd have to ask one of them if it applies in such countries (even though said garments are usually very different from skirts).

They are only as different from skirts as womens slacks are from male trousers.
I wonder if Jewesses are obliged to wear pants in a country where men wear skirt-type garments.
