the bible does not say women cant wear pants. I'm a bible teacher and I have never seen a single word about this.
There is no specific verse in The Bible that explicitly prohibits women from wearing pants. Modesty and appropriate clothing are mentioned in various passages, but the specific prohibition against women wearing pants is not mentioned.
The Apostolic church does not believe in women wearing pants. The Pentecostal denomination believes that women should wear modest apparel that does not pertain unto a man. (see Deuteronomy 22:5) Pentecostal Churches do this in obedience to the Bible. This has not changed in the New Testament. The women wear Long skirt or dresses and long sleeve blouse or jacket.

Women started wearing business suits as early as the 1930s. These early suits were skirt suits not pants suits that can be found today.
Yes you can; it is the Apostolic Pentecostals that do not believe in wearing pants for women.
The Bible does not specifically mention pants. The prohibition on cross-dressing in Deuteronomy 22:5 likely stems from the cultural norms of distinguishing between male and female attire during that time, rather than a specific ban on women wearing pants.
Roman Catholic AnswerTraditional Catholic women would not normally wear pants, it was forbidden in the Bible for women to wear men's clothes and vice versa.
Pants as we know them today did not exist in Bible times. So the Bible doesn't directly say that women cannot wear pants. But the Bible does say in Deuteronomy 22:5 "The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God." Some people believe this means a woman should not wear pants.
Islam does not approve of women wearing trousers as they believe this will reveal their form too much, though they may wear a wide cut pant with a tunic over top. They generally wear Burqas to be more modest. Apostolic Pentacostal, Amish and Exclusive Brethren women do not wear pants as it is stated in the bible that women should not wear the clothing of a man.
Actually, this is a very old tradition stemming from verses in the old testament banning cross dressing. This includes men wearing dresses and women wearing pants. In fact, this is why women never wore pants until relatively recently... he was seen as a crime against God. Most orthodox/semi-orthodox groups (including Greek Orthodox, Amish, Mormon, Quakers, Catholics, and Jews) still follow this ban relatively strictly. Only in contemporary culture have women been allowed to "dress as men" and wear pants. Though, hypocritically enough, men are still generally prohibited from dressing as women.
Sure, I have pictures of my dad in his WWII uniform and all of my aunts and mom wearing slacks.
