What's to explain? It's a bunch of people, most of whom you've never met, who are just as likely to be homicidal maniacs as they are to be normal everyday people, with whom you share the minutiae of your everyday life. It's totally normal, and everyone would understand.

OK, the Following is TIC, (or is it).
The purpose of garments is to ward off the aliens. When they abduct people at night, the garments are a "protection" against their unwelcomed probing. If that's a valid reason for wearing garments - count me in!
When poet puts pen to paper imagination breathes life, finding hearth and home.

I received no objection.Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

Originally posted by BlueHair View PostIt's been a while since I bought garments, but I remember them being pretty expensive. I doubt the church is willing to lose the revenue stream.
Then again, the quality is much lower too.Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

Originally posted by marsupial View PostOh Mrs. Funk, I want out of this club too. So bad. I have so many issues with garments, it is difficult to even begin. I will try.
1. The outline of Women's garments show through many shirts. It looks silly. Maybe in Utah where everyone wears them you don't think about it. But outside of zion, it's weird.
Also, since breastfeeding, I stopped wearing the bra over the top. So white shirts are totally out. Either you can see that I am wearing a bra over an undershirt (which is weird) or I wear the bra underneath the markings show through.
2. Like you said, garments prevent me from wearing even modest styles. For example, I have tried on several modest dresses (with sleeves and a skirt passed my knees) that I cannot wear because the arm holes were cut too large and when I lift up my arms you can see garments.
3. May through October in Mississippi--another layer of clothes is the last thing I need.
4. Don't even get me started on "that time of the month." It is impossible to keep a pantyliner in place while wearing garments.
5. They do not fit right and the sizes and quality are inconsistent. I always buy the same size but it's a crapshoot. One thing I can always count on--the waist will be way too high.
Serious question: Who would you write to complain? I wonder if enough women complained changes would be made to their design.

Mrs. Funk, I'm sorry for you and all women that have to wear g's. They are just much easier for dudes.
On a semi-related note, given that g's are supposed to promote modest dress, is anyone else shocked by how much rack chick's can show while still wearing them? This always seems strange to me.So Russell...what do you love about music? To begin with, everything.
