I believe women need to enjoy Christ as much as men do and when laws and ordinances are created for women, I think people who preach about them need to, as much as possible, bring to the table the law of life, rather than the law of sin and judgment.
I would rather tell a woman to grow long hair, which is beautiful and effeminate, revealing the beauty of God's commandment about covering, than to tell her to buy a hat to wear to church so the angels wont see the crown of her head.
We forget that a good God made these laws.
I would rather tell a woman to be spiritual and dress to build up men younger, and to gain the respect of men older than to tell her 20 things to do and not do. Mind you, in some of the prophetic writings, there are lists.
Peter said to accept the humble truth which can save, and I believe men need to start sowing spiritual seeds in women that in this provocative and sensual culture may in 5-10 years raise up wise, relevant, full-of-faith women who keep his commandments with faith and sincerity and can teach other young women to enjoy the laws of God. Because the more I bash and the more women are bashed, its seems, the more rebellion you see in christian woman and the way they act.
