PANTS! (?)- replay

another replay...










  1. My thought is always that we have enough to do following the actual rules that the Church sets out for us. If they make a rule about pants/skirts, I'll follow it. Until then, I'll assume that I'm allowed to use my judgment, and I judge that it is OK for me to wear pants, if they are modest.

    I like the St. Peter's rule. When I was there, though I was following the dress code, the guards attempted to throw me out of the adoration chapel. Apparently I looked too touristy; they told me, "This is just for praying!" (you can't take photos in the adoration chapel) I had some difficulty convincing them that I actually wanted to pray!



    If I never have to hear about pants vs. skirts again, I'll be blissfully happy!

  3. Thanks for the replay and your 7 cents. Couldn't agree more.

    Had to chuckle when I read your first line: "Given the attention over pants/no pants..." Personally, I have always believed that pants are way more modest than no pants. ;)


  4. For YEARS I wore nothing but long skirts and dresses, just because I liked them. I IGNORED the fact that my husband LOVES to see me in pants, for some reason. And, we are not talking anything loose, or short, or would it even matter in a 60 year old slightly overweight mom? Some pants are far more modest than some dresses, and vice versa. I started wearing slacks occasionally to please my husband, not myself. That's all.

  5. Good post. Good blog.

    For a bit of fun, may I quote Ogden Nash?

    What's the Use?

    Sure, deck your limbs in pants;
    Yours are the limbs, my sweeting.
    You look divine as you advance --
    Have you seen yourself retreatin

  6. Love these!! I agree with every one of them.
