Is it wrong for a man to wear a skirt and high heels

[Spiderman]

I was more asking to see if the abrahamic monotheists would object to it...

 

[Spiderman]

Yeah. God doesn't seem to like it. He's got kind of a weak stomach.

Deuteronomy 22:5
“A woman must not wear men’s clothes, and a man must not wear women’s clothes. That is disgusting to the Lord your God."
​

Nothing intrinsically wrong with it you understand, just one of his psychological hangups.

I wonder what a man dressing in drag would have looked like back when Deuteronomy was written... Why do you think it offended God so much?

I hope God has a sense of humor now... Or at least hopefully he is more tolerant of those whose behavior isn't hurting anybody.

There's nothing in the New Testament that addresses cross-dressing.

Now the question is, if a person is a true Christian, they believe the Bible to be true, and they believe such things are an Abomination against God, should they feel it is their responsibility to rebuke and correct somebody who's dressing in Drag?

When I perform in Comedy Burlesque shows I often do in drag and sing bass acapella. I have a great deep bass voice.

Clothing in reality has cultural not moral considerations.

Those who object have too much time on their hands and need to take up a new hobby, like making designer clothing (gender specific) for pigeons in the park.

Like much ancient scripture this does not represent what displeases God, but the cultural view of the time concerning what they believe displeases God.

It's wrong for anyone to wear high heels.
Unhealthy!

My Missus can't wear heels anymore.
But a man who lives nearby does wear skirts, high heels etc and looks exactly female. He even has the figure for the clothes. And he can ride a bicycle whilst wearing heels. Amazing.

I have no probs about how anybody dresses, unless you can dig up a pic to shock me? (challenged! )

Mrs Revolt gave up heels years ago.
Her feet are happier.
Happy feet make for happy people.

And if momma ain't happy, ain't nobody happy.

A lot of them who consider themselves "true Christians," (Evangelicals and Conservatives, mostly) certainly do take it upon themselves as their duty to rebuke/denounce/shame anything and everything that offends their over-sensitive religious feeling.

Yeah... I guess I would have to understand why it's evil or wrong before I could begin to correct such a person. I don't see how it's hurting anybody, so I fail to see the need to correct it. I feel sorry for people who feel the need to correct such harmless behaviors because some ancient text convinces them that it's an abomination.

It must be a hard life when you feel that it's your responsibility and conviction to correct harmless behaviors because the Bible says it is a sin.

It's definitely wrong for a man to wear a skirt and high heels to the beach, or playing on swings with little kids, or replacing the transmission on a car, or mowing the grass, or collecting signatures for the NRA, or ....

It's always wrong for a man to wear high heels and a dress when when on a construction site doing foundation work . He May wear a skirt since it's Scottish tradition but never high heels unless he's French and scottish. So I suppose there are exceptions but not in oregon, its law. Maybe day glow skirts would pass but they would have to cover your knees definitely not high heels unless they were leather and steel toed. Maybe. Wow this is a difficult question to sharply answer.

Here in Indiana, they just have to be steel toed.
But I thought Oregon required a consent form from the cow for leather shoes.

Ha! Only if you are married!!! BTW oregon is hippies with guns. More strip clubs per capita than anywhere else. Why? Because all oregonians hate government, free speech. We don't have a confused government is the moral authority issues that lots of other states have. No our cows can be married or shoe leather it's all good.

Yeah, but I heard that they don't let you pump your own gas in Oregon - unless you're wearing a skirt and high heels. They have some weird laws.

Obviously that's in place as safety gear. Who is going to mug a guy in a skirt and heels that was a former logger with a beard.

Oddly enough, one of the youtube channels I follow posted this today.

I mean, I venerate Jesus, and it's against my religion to proselytize, believe there's only one god, or believe that a human can be God. It's also against my religion to believe that being gay or trans are sinful or to deny someone abortion and birth control.

Is it my responsibility to "rebuke" (lmao who even uses that word anymore) evangelical Christians then?

Evangelical Christians should be rebuked and their errors pointed out
