Ok so I was talking to a guy for couple of weeks and everything was fine and we were planning on setting our 1st date. But, yesterday he pointed out that he is Independent Baptist. I thought that it was like any baptist churches I attended before but its not. He said that he is willing to date me if I start changing the way I dress by wearing ONLY skirts or dresses by the knee or below. He did mention how its wrong for women to be wearing dress pants and jeans. He also phrased the bible verse of Deuteronomy 5:22.



I mean I really like him but I don't think I can accept that since it sounds a bit controlling. Besides if he wanted a girl wearing dresses why did he contact me if based on my pics you can clearly see I also wear jeans.



What do you all think?

Up till 100 years ago it was mens clothing, I don't know how much God follows current trends or what he thinks about jeans. And even if I thought I knew the answer I could still be wrong...

A dress below the knee can still be fitted to show off your figure which could cause you to arouse men's lustful passions. A boiler suit probably won't.



If I was a woman and had nothing better to do I would have gone along with the below the knee skirt or dress for the first date and any church meets. The rest of the time I'd have worn what I liked then knocked it on the head if I got too much lip.



Probably best not to listen to me as I'm the type that does stuff just out of curiosity. It's surprising who you meet in churches as a free rolling Christian There are a lot of oppressed people in the ranks of many a denomination that can use a friend and a sensible point of view.
