There are three reasons (at least) that shorts on ladies are immodest:
1. Isa 47:2-3 Take the millstones, and grind meal: uncover thy locks, make bare the leg, uncover the thigh, pass over the rivers. (3) Thy nakedness shall be uncovered, yea, thy shame shall be seen: I will take vengeance, and I will not meet thee as a man. According to this passage, revealing the thigh (the part of your leg above your knee) is revealing your nakedness. That is immodest in it's purest sense.

Only someone like Randy could pull quotes supporting the vanishingly trivial matter of his obsessive, petty dress codes as moral, whilst disregarding the fact that the book he pulled it from mentions them whilst glorying in his god's laying waste to an entire civilisation (babylon) in a psychotic rage; this in apparent revenge for the babylonian's bad treatment of the israelites, despite the fact that it was also supposedly he who used them to punish the israelites in the first place.
Randy, your imaginary god is fucking insane, and would not deserve not one iota of respect or obedience even if it did exist.
Poor Randy is just... well, sick, really. I mean, his affliction goes way beyond ignorance, stupidity and arrogance and well into the realms of mental illness.
Leering at these young ladies in shorts again, ImaSaved1?
I agree with Khaine, and even the quote is flawed.
If he says the quote is saying that revealing the thigh is revealing your nakedness, then surely taking a millstone and grinding meal is revealing your nakedness too, right?
right, ImaSaved1? right?
[Insert crickets chirping]
Thy nakedness shall be uncovered, yea, thy shame shall be seen
WTF? Would someone care to run this through a fundie translator for me? (It would completment the fundie word redefinition project so well don't you think?)
It's comments like this that make me think by not taking some kind of legal action against Bro.Randy, I'm somehow culpable for whatever horrible things he does to those children.
No matter what, it sounds like SOMEONE would love the work of fundamentalist Islam.
**MOONS IMASAVED1**
Deal with it.
i hate how they all fear the woman!!
they have the exact same "form" in shorts as men do, without a slight bulge that I would assume would be more 'immodest' in that sense than nothing at all
And even though, it was St John Baptist's favourite clothes. And the cavewomen, for that matter!!. Honetly, bro, are you that stupid as to make us think that a book written more than 2500 years ago is going to teach us how to dress NOW?
But if salvation is by faith alone, and not by works, as fundie Baptists keep insisting, what does it matter? Can't a woman in hot pants still accept Jesus as her personal savior?
You ever notice in the Bible how every time the Jews take on the chin from a foreign army, they never blame it on lazy soldiers or incompetent leaders. No, those guys might cut your throat or have you stoned if you pissed them off even if you were a prophet. No they always find a way blame the poor women for their armies losing. What a bunch of sexist self-serving goobers.
Okay, how do you tell mens walking shorts from womens walking shorts. Unless their pink, they look about the same
What does grinding grain have to do with wearing shorts? They didn't have shorts back then.
Quit staring at the teenage girls you fucking pervert.
@ Brent, walking shorts are shorts that come down to the knee and are fairly loose fitting. Hardly immodest. image
"He wanted men to be (and look like) men and he wanted ladies to be and look like ladies. Because the Lord has such a strong position of the mingling of the Genders, He also gave us the rule that ladies should not wear mens clothing and men should not wear ladies"
can anyone show me where the word 'trousers' or 'shorts' is used in the bible. the guy is a grad A fcukwit.
I don't know about you, but I'd think that walking shorts would be more modest than skirts.
What the heck do you want us to wear during the summer? Yes, there is the option of skirts, but still. Sorry if we don't want to follow the example of fundie Muslim women and wear burkas in the heat. Get a grip.
"Men's walking shorts reveal the form of the lady's body. Again, this is immodest."
So no shorts...no pants...nothing that shows the body's shape...why not just make women wear a black sheet over their heads so all you can see are their eyes?
Already taken? Damn.
well, if it isn't Ol' Perv' Randy, back on the erection prevention trail, telling young girls to cover up before he busts a nut just looking at them while hiding in the bushes.
Ahh, biblical Prudery by the numbers.
Here's your burqa, cover up now!
by your logic men's shorts 'reveal the form' of a man's body and that's not immodest?
Also, revealing your thigh couldn't possibly be the purest sense of being immodest as that would then make walking around completely naked second to wearing short pants.
Bro. Randy still believes that Jews 2000 years ago wore pants, eh?
Oh, sorry, I forgot. IFBs believe that Jesus was a white, American English-speaking Christian.
...
You know, if you keep saying that everything is an abomination, then people are just going to give up on the whole concept at some point.
If a woman walks by you in shorts, then comes back wearing nothing on her lower half... I dunno, which one is going to really get your attention? Are they really the same thing? Hm?
You sure know a lot about womens' dress, style, clothes, basically what looks revealing, what looks good on a woman, don't you Randy?
Good prude, good prude.
My shorts go past my knees.
Btw, welcome to the 20th century, ten years too late. We all KNOW what a woman's body look like, on average. It's no secret any longer.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
