What did the Bible teach Women on dressing?

Islam puts the ladies in a position of Respect and they should always dress and appear in such ways that will enable them to command respect. Experience has however shown that a number of ladies who regard the guidelines of Islam as too harsh see Christianity as alternative. Such ladies should note that the guidelines of Islam on Dressing find support in the Bible, even though most Christian Churches fail to stress such guidelines so as to win and retain many ladies. Consider  the following:
1) Deuteronomy 22 verse 5 reads thus: "Women are not to wear men's clothing and men are not to wear women's clothing." The Lord your God hates people who do such things."
2) In Peter 3 verse 1, wives are advised to submit to their husbands and a further advice to the wives contain in 1 Peter 3 verse 3-4 reads:"Do not use outward aids to make yourself beautiful through the way you do your hair  or the jewelery you put on or the dresses you wear." The use of cosmetics including attachment for the hair is condemned here as it is in Islam.

 
This is just to shear Knowledge with you christian friends and never meant to hut your religion or any one at all.
Please let exchange reasonable and matured Responses in this New Topic. All responses if Possible, need to be back on by quotation from either the Qur'an  or a Bible.   
 Good luck..

I wonder why Some People always not obeying Simple instruction. You see You begin with fight Response instead of a Matured one.
 I will not insult any one in this topic as I mentioned from the beginning of the topic.
If you look at the first Response, you will find out that she is a christian and she come up with a very good and matured response which shows that she is  Respectful as her statement. I suggest that if you are here for such act, you can easily find your way. We are here to shear Knowledge and nothing more than that.

@poster

Can you explain what you mean by "Islam puts the ladies in a position of Respect"

The following Explained what I mean by "Islam puts the ladies in a Position of Respect".


Liberation or Sexploitation
Look at the glossy cover of any magazine or advertisements on TV and newspaper, you will find that most of these advertisements have scantily dressed women in alluring poses to attract the attention of men. This proves that the Western society considers woman only as a sex symbol.

The liberation of women in Islam is far superior to Western liberation as it allows women to live with respect, dignity and equality in society.

Equality does not mean aping and behaving like men or dancing to their carnal tunes; that would be an act of inferiority in the face of one's own femininity.

A truly liberated woman always dresses decently and modestly. A true woman will never degrade her body and sell her dignity to the highest bidder. No woman is truly liberated if she is still the slave of her wayward conscience, bodily lust or infidelity.

However, in Islam, women, whatever their role as mothers, wives, sisters or daughters, command respect and have a constructive role to play in society. The Hijab itself gives an aura of freedom to the womankind, facilitating their movement and protecting them from provocation and wanton greed of the human wolves. Removal of the Hijab makes you vulnerable to the lust of men.

By removing your Hijab, you have destroyed your faith. Islam means submission to Allah (SWT) in all our actions. Those who refuse submission cannot be called Muslims.

What is Hijab? (Hijaab (Muslim Veil), Hejab (An Act of Faith), Islamic dress for women)
There are many sisters who have failed to understand the actual meaning of Hijab. Hijab technically means covering. Islam desires the preservation of social tranquility and familial peace. Hence, it asks women to cover themselves in their inter-actions with men, whom they are not related to.

Why is Hijab necessary?
The dangerous consequences of the Western culture of nakedness and permissiveness are before us. We should think twice before blindly trying to imitate Western life-styles.

How should women observe Hijab correctly?
Basically, the dress of ladies should cover the whole body except the face and hands (i.e. palms and fingers). Hair should not be exposed because Islam considers it as half of the total beauty of women. The Hijab could be of any form and color, a one-piece chader or a three-piece ensemble, as long as it is not tight fitting and does not attract people's attention.

I hope this short explanation answers your questions.
 Good luck..

@Abduuul, i can see you mean no disrespect to women, but the false religion you are following blindly is. because of your distorted mind, it will never seem to you that your statements are abasing.

The only point in your entire article to show what you mean by respect to women is the decree by men, that women should wear additional covering. Who are you to decree thus? and what are they(women)? for you to think you need to command their dressing.

It is the perversion of mohammed's mind that leg to this Hijab wearing.

Is this all Islam got to offer as putting ladies in position of respect? Please come again! this time, try a little harder.

@democrazy:  here You come Again, I know how u will react  because u are not one of peace. Any way, i learn that you are an Atheist(Some one that did not Believe in the Existence of God). This Topic is not for u atheist, this is for the Believers(Muslims and Christians).
beside, can you Proof to me that Islam is a false Religion as you said, even though you are one of those that believe in any one?.  I am not Commanding their Dressings as i quoted in Bible and Quran as well.
 For you to denied what are said, you equally need to come up with something that contradict my saying, other wise u are just following your prejudices and preconceived notion of yours. you are cynical in nature and therefore  don't have your time at all.
chop up your Responses.

As long as it is forcefully imposed, the aims aforestated is nullified. In free societies, the individual identity of the members are respected.
