OR is it just a personal choice?
Just curious.

Some Pentecostal, Mennonite and all Amish wear modest dresses. I'm sure there are others.

In the Bible, it says not to crossdress (I'm paraphrasing). Some Jews and Christians interpret pants as a male garment and therefore prohibit women from wearing pants. Others say it is not a male garment and therefore allow women to wear pants. Even in these cases the pants (or skirts) are required to be modest (whatever that means to them). Generally, wearing skirts is not exactly a modesty issue, which should be obvious because there are many skirts that are less modest than pants.

Conservative circles of most sects of Christianity, Islam, and Judaism require this. It does not actually specify in any of these the need to wear a SKIRT, but in Islam modest attire is required,and I know in Christianity it is not required but highly suggested to dress more modestly. I do not know about Judaism though, so I can't tell you if it is required or not, but I know that very Orthodox Jews do wear skirts.

Depends how the person reading the sentence interpret it. Drug is bad. But not all drugs are bad. But generally speaking, when people are told it is better off to avoid drugs, would that be completely false?. Im not localising the word. Dress modestly ..also depends on how ppl see things as modest.

dating has no longer something to do with faith, greater to do with the kinfolk and how they are with the policies of the homestead. additionally some human beings merely like skirts, sh may well be forced via a kinfolk member. possibly she merely wears them in school and at homestead she wears pants, i know lots of people who try this.

Mormons are pretty strict, I am not sure if its still the case but they use to wear under garments that never fully ever were taken off, so they were never ever completely naked.
