OK I have just seen the picture. Now that I have stopped laughing let's get serious. The skirt you are wearing imposes a loose clothing hazard. It could easily be snagged in an MVC or caught in the stretcher. It could be caught in the stair chair and you and your patient will be tumbling down the stairs or embankment. I also have to question other clothing items against your beliefs. You stated that form fitting clothing is why you must wear the skirt but your shirt clearly indicates you have breast. Does this not violate the same rule?
I guess what I meant by formfitting is that it must not be tight. The shirt is loose, therefore it is okay. Alot of women's pants are tight, therefore form fitting.
Not to sound mean but I thought the same thing. It does look really, really, really bad and outright silly. It does not provide a good image at all for whatever department you would be working/volunteering for.
And I have to agree with a few others who have said this as well. If your church's position and interpretation of scripture is that a woman should not wear male clothing, then how is it acceptable for you to wear pants underneath a skirt? Does the scripture only apply as long as you can't see the opposite genders clothing when they are being worn? Would a guy in your church be okay to wear womens underwear since they wouldn't be visible? It's really the same thing as wearing pants under the skirt.
They make women's pants which make them specific to females. Guy's typically look kinda funny and obvious when wearing women's pants the same as they look funny if wearing a skirt. So they are distinctively different.
The pants I wear are girls' pants, not mens'. But I do find it interesting that everyone is assuming they are guys' pants. Okay, so what I'm gathering is that everyone thinks it's a bad idea and I should just wear the pants. So I'll be checking into that.
OK. So you want to wear a skirt over pants!! WOW!!! Doesn't that defeat the purpose of any religious belief? I mean if you are wearing the pants already and if their is some scripture that says you must only wear skirts, are you not breaking the rules? (I am assuming this is religious as this is the only leg you have to stand on)
It is a religous/church thing. Personally I would not have a problem with just wearing the pants, but there are others whom I must consider. No, there is no scripture that says you must only wear skirts. It has to do with modesty more than anything, and what I've been hearing from all you wonderful people is that you consider just the EMS pants modest. So I will be checking into that.
I know that my service wouldn't allow the skirt. Based on the females I work with and our approved pants that they wear I don't see how they could be considered not modest. They aren't very flattering and sure aren't form fitting. it's not you'd be walking around in tights or daisy dukes.
