ummmmmmm that's NOT what we believe, I detest that title. We wear pants, we don't think women shouldn't wear pants, instead of assuming what we believe, please go to the source, I'm not trying to convert you, I just don't want you hating us for something you are getting off the internet from someone who doesn't know what they are talking about, here is the website that will tell you what we really believe: https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/?lang=eng

I'm Mormon and wearing pants. That was a dumb title for this post.

"sounds very mormon?" i'm not one myself, but religion shaming is something i hate. i'm pretty sure this is offensive to mormons, right?

Why Mormons? I assure you we wear pants like everyone else...

Mormon isn't a term for Sexist and Racist. I am an LDS member (LAtter day saints, true name for Mormons) and this is not what my church promotes or is like. I know that our church conforms to stereotypical gender roles but most of us are willing to conform and those that don't conform are still normal. Women can be strong and wear pants and do things that people mainly consider "manly things" I'm just tired of all the Mormon hate

*increasingly angry bagpipe tooting*

I've been a Mormon for over 40 years. Not once have I been told not to wear pants. Perhaps this commenter shouldn't assume because we value modesty, that it's only Mormons who do so.

What did the dudes wear before they invented pants?

How is that Mormon?

I object to "sounds Mormon ". No it does not....what an idiot

I totally hate skirts and dresses and never wear them. I own one skirt. Can't do work on my ranch in a friggin' dress! Why women through the ages, have been so DOWNRIGHT DUMB and wear dresses is beyond me. Bless Katherine Hepburn for proudly showing how fabulous you look in slacks!

Could be a Muslim. In Islam women aren't allowed to imitate the dress of men and vice versa. I'm a Muslim woman and I wear pants but there are some sects that believe that women cannot wear pants because they are imitating men. I've never understood the logic because pants aren't exclusively for men. The same people say that pants show the shape of the body (we do have to wear loose clothes) but they assume that all pants are tight.

Meanwhile, women who don't give a s**t about your outdated ideas of modesty continue to wear what the hell the like

yah so what do they wear then ohhh right skirts were made for men too? i wish they were because pants or shorts are my only options dont wanna see it? then just fall of a cliff already.

HAS THIS IDIOT EVER HEARD OF BAGGY PANTS

I haven’t worn a dress or a skirt unless it’s for a special occasion since I was five. This is so dumb.

"sounds very...." OFFENDED BY THIS TITLE please change it, I know there are some groups that consider themselves 'mormon' that would agree with this post, but there are too many others that allow the women to wear pants. please do not generalize any religions and change this title, as it is offensive.

Pretty sure that I'm the only one that thought "but men can have nice figures..."

Pants are old as History and have been usted by both men and women for thousands of years in Middle and Far East. Only a sex-obsessed guy could think of pants as exclusively for men.

Great reply!

I grew up “in the culture”. To this day I refuse to wear dresses, & not to rebel, but because dresses make it easier for men to rape you. Fact. - Damned if you do, damned if you don’t. How about men stop sexualizing every thing a woman does, says, or wears?

Every time I see this "argument," it remains stupid.

actually i read somewhere that a french man invented the panties for ladies to save them from the hungry eyes of men while kneeling on the floor cleaning it. Women that time had only skirts and no underwear and arroused the emotions of men through working. So this had to stop and the female slip was invented.

Sad but true!!

*me wearing pants rn* :-(

I WILL

With all the weird stuff going on now, it's quite likely that we are still in the 18th century, I don't see why not. :)

In my religion, it is said that the women wear dresses to seem modest, maybe they are just religious-

LOL plants were invented for men, not women? Brains were invented for people, not imbeciles
