Why men wear pants and women wear skirts ǀ Fashion history ǀ Justine Leconte

Why do men wear pants and women wear skirts or dresses? It might sound like a trivial question in Western countries, but actually this matter of fashion history and of fashion culture is rooted way back in time.
Egyptians, Incas, Chinese emperors, Greek citizens and Roman conquerors were wearing skirts or dresses. So when did the switch happen? Since when are men expected to wear trousers while until recently, women were supposed to stick to skirts?
The answer might surprise you!

Interestingly enough, in thr Bronze Age, when thr Old Testament was written, _women_ wore trousers under a tunic, and men wore long tunics . When men went to work in the fields, or to go to war, they would push their skirts between their legs, and tie them around their wais, and sometimes tie a belt (called a girdle) over to secure them. This is the origin of the term 'gird your loins'. Later, in the Middle Ages, women wore long skirts with knee-length hose, and men wore shorter (usually about knee-length) tunics, with long hose that tied at the hip. Eventually those long hose evolved (in the late 15th-early 16th century) into knee-length sort-of trousers, and knee-length hose. In the early 19th c, they became long trousers. Women were basically were stuck with floor-length skirts until WWI, when they hiked up their skirts and went to work to support the war effort. And then the 20s happened... When someone throws that Old Testament passage at me, i say 1. I bought these trousers in the women's section of thr department store. 2. The clothing company made these trousers for women. They are sized and shaped for a woman's body, not a man's. 3. The zipper and button are faced the opposite direction from a man's. The trousers do not 'pertain to a man'- they are clearly women's clothing. (I grew up in a religious sect that had ridiculous arguments on this matter. I've heard it all before.)

I like the idea of both pants and skirts. I like the "freedom" of a skirt, and I like pants because they are so functional. But do I want my husband to wear a skirt? No not really, but a kilt... maybe

@asparagussauce 6 жыл бұрын

Fun fact for people in the comments/wandering around youtube who've never been up close and personal with a real kilt: they're bloody heavy. Several kilos sometimes. The fabric is incredibly dense, and there's a LOT of it. They're extremely easy to move in because the pleats are numerous and deep, and they're great at a ceilidh because they flare out really dramatically :)

There's also historical reasons women began to wear trousers in the West; for practical reasons (during world war II), and it stuck and now in Western culture there's nothing strange about it. There's no comparison with men wearing clothes aimed at women in the West. Justine all your examples are places/cultures outside of the West where that style of apparel is the norm. No doubt there are good practical reasons for it if you were to research that too. Scottish kilts don't really count, scottish men don't go about wearing kilts regularly instead of trousers, usually just special occasions. Western men have no practical reason to start wearing skirts, it's nothing to do with misogyny.

YES! Love the socio-rhetorical biblical commentary! Yes, agree, there are so many versions and some are inaccurate. Scholars recognize about three different levels of translations. The first is most literal word-for-word from the original Hebrew or Greek (NRSV, ESV), the next is more readable (NIV, NKJV), and the third is a loose translation (these are the ones that tend to be inaccurate (MSG, GWT, etc.)) That's why it's so important to know the original author's original intent! Great video and interesting history.

@Brittney Lamar I'm truly lucky in that I get to study that every day...I'm a Bible/Theo major! It's been a life study really. I've been in ministry for about 10 years with a heart for worship and just went back to school after a layoff from my job...I like to joke and say I did it backwards! Digging into the word deeper and learning how to dig into the exegesis has just enhanced the Word for me and taken it deeper. When I took Greek it just made scripture come alive in a whole new way. Tim Mackie sounds like he has a great and important ministry. Education is so important. Context is truly everything.

Selah Beauty Hi, I'm so glad to have found your comment. In all these years of being in the ministry and studying the bible, what what is it that keeps your passionate about being a Christian?

@selahbeauty6259 6 жыл бұрын

@justmelteo love your question! That's easy and the makings of it are not easy...it's simple, what keeps me passionate about being a Christian is my personal relationship with him and my own personal history walking with him in the darkest times of my life and in moments of joy. It's seeing him do the impossible in my life and call me far beyond anything I ever thought imaginable. It's the dreams he gives me, the visions, the opportunities, the chance to speak into another's life and speak words that bring life and healing. And it just keeps getting better. It is not an easy road, but it is where the things of the deep are. I could go on and on. I was fortunate in that I met the Lord BEFORE I started studying the Bible. And then when I started seriously studying, the Word just took on a whole new meaning and came alive in the most supernatural ways because of the relationship that I was already establishing with the Lord and the things I was seeing him do. The thing is we can study all we want, but it's only head knowledge if it doesn't penetrate the heart. It must be put into action. That is what keeps me passionate about studying the Bible far beyond the encouragement that it gives me. It's His relationship. And ministry is just the icing on the cake because it's where we see the Body come together and truly be God's hands and feet.

The modern Scottish kilt is a smartened up version of the Great Plaid, pleated around the body and held with a belt. There was enough left over to act as a cape or shawl over the shoulders. At night it was the blanket/bedroll. The modern kilt is still favoured by some as a work garment as walking through heather trousers can get wet but the kilt, worn with thick socks keeps the man dryer. It has also become an icon of the Celtic fringe, some Irish have adopted their own version, but the Cornish and the Welsh do not seem to feel the need.

Remeber reading somewhere about the ancient Greek and Roman tunics that there were different styles for men and women, in the way it was draped around the body it would be considered a male or female style.

See, This is why I believe biblical *specifics* should be ignored. By that I mean take the generalizations: Be nice to everyone, Don’t judge people, Don’t kill people, Don’t steal, etc. etc. and leave the rest behind. I mean even just “translating” from Elizabethan English to Modern English is horrendously different in meaning. That was just one translation by modern linguists and the Bible has been translated numerous times from Hebrew and Aramaic to Greek, from Greek to Latin, from Latin to Elizabethan English, and then from old English to modern English and from modern English into hundreds of other languages to boot. Not to mention that each translation in the past was different from person to person because of their understanding of each specific language. And there are people today that seriously think the interpreted meanings haven’t changed completely and horrendously from the original written text!! Anyway, this was a great video! I love watching your channel and seeing your newest videos. You are always entertaining and informative and you have a great fashion sense. :)

Very interesting information! Thank you for this history lesson, Justine! I like your videos because you always making me think about things that I didn't know or didn't notice before. I never thought that fashion can be so deep and interesting topic, reflecting so many different aspects of life.

Marci for your research and my education. I also read somewhere that Greek men used to wear skirts, however when they went to battle and travelled north by horseback they complained that their long skirts were bothersome. Therefore they cut their skirts shorter. However, travelling north was cold so they wrapped fabric around their legs which became the beginning of pants. Just wondering if you heard of this also.

Love this type of video! One of my best friends just ordained as a Buddhist monk in Thailand (I'm at the airport on my way home as I type!). I've been surrounded by monks the last few weeks and I must say that robe styling is a work of art. It's almost exactly like a sari, which makes sense as both garments originated in India. I love the thought and research you put into your videos, and would love to see more on the evolution of garments!

I loved your video! It opened my eyes on how much freedom women have nowadays to dress as they feel compared to men. I try always to be as open-minded as possible, now I'm going to remember you every time I find myself feeling weird or a bit shocked if I see a man in skirt or dress. Thank you for this video! Let's put down our prejudices! Could you do a video on how to layer clothes? It's already Autumn here in South America and I would find it extremely useful! (Yes, it can get wicked cold in here) I've seen videos about it but they don't convince me, most of them talk about personal opinions... I'd love to hear the advice of a professional fashion designer! Thank you!
