So i was looking on reddit (i know i know, i mostly use it 99% for a sub dedicated to alcoholics in recovery) and came across a post about Trans (shocker i know).. someone said "you cant be trans its against God" to which somebody else said "post the bible quote thats against transitioning then"
..so i posted “A woman shall not wear a man's garment, nor shall a man put on a woman's cloak, for whoever does these things is an abomination to the Lord your God."
Its already sinking in downvotes 😆
When the commandment was first written men and women both wore robes.
The differentiation between men’s and women’s garments was mainly in the type of materials, colors and patterns used and the cut of the garment.
The commandment doesn’t say men should wear pants and women long skirts. It just points out that men and women’s clothing should be different.
So in our present day context it means men’s and women’s pants should be gender specific.
But this command is to the Jews from the Torah which mainstream Christianity says is obsolete anyway… so really the cross dressing ban should be as serious to Christians as the ban on wearing a garment of wool mixed with linen.
Russian Orthodox churches require women to wear skirts and headcoverings in church. There are typically loaners of both available.
