John 14:21 "Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me. The one who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love them and show myself to them."
Which was referring to the 10 commandments, so if you wear pants don't worry it won't keep you out of heaven if you have accepted the lord Jesus Christ as your personal savior.

Look at the attire in history. The men wore what we consider dresses today, but made in a style for men. Likewise pants are made for women and for men. The style is different because the bodies are different.
The scripture at Deuteronomy 22:5 says "A woman must not wear men's clothing, nor a man wear women's clothing, for the LORD your God detests anyone who does this."
Those wearing women's or men's clothing desiring to be that sex or to portray themselves as such is really the subject.
This command was likely given to avoid fornication, sodomy or homosexuality.
When I cannot find comfortable steel toed shoes for the job I do in women's sizes I get the wider and more comfortable mens size. No one I work with knows this, for I do not portray myself as a man in doing so. It is about comfort.

Isn't it simply a matter of commonsense to decide what is modest and what is meant to arouse inappropriate attention? A pair of everyday jeans is far less ostentatious and provocative than a flimsy dress. My parents do feel dresses and skirts are more naturally feminine but I think that mindset is probably a bit outdated these days. Times and fashions change.
I think God just wants us to be ourselves, Look I will be honest with you , I have an intersex condition that makes me a blend of male and female in a pyshical and mental way as well, its been confirmed by a doctor, I am a blend, and I believe i was supposed to be this way on purpose. I am not a mistake.
All that really means is that a woman should not dress manly and a man should not dress girly....... sheesh 
It means women shouldn't 'wear the trousers'. That's where the saying comes from believe it or not.
More to do with a man being a man, and a woman being a woman. Not necessarily in duties per se, but in demeanor and their relationship with one another.
Not that it means anything to 90% of the liberal neo-feminist women of today who don't really understand what feminist means but just love hating men for being men.
But there we go. I'm ranting ...

Deuteronomy 22:5 A woman shall not wear a man’s apparel, nor shall a man put on a woman’s garment; for whoever does such things is abhorrent to the Lord your God.
I, personally, think women look better in dresses. Not sure if they had pants back then, but there is a difference between women's pants and men's today. Plus I think it'd be kinda hard for a guy to fit into a pair of women's pants. So it's a little hard to disobey this law.
