    UPCI is the 1st pseudo-Pentecostal church that comes to mind with all of their legalism.

    They do concentrate on rules for women, although some of the churches believe that men should not wear short sleeves, must be clean shaven to hold a position of importance in the church, suits only in chruch, etc. Women's rules are much more extensive, and if taken in biblical context... modesty is what the Lord requires. Dresses? They don't even apply to biblical times. Skirts? Nope. Modesty does however. Modesty = not drawing attention to oneself.

    'That which pertains to a man'... is speaking of a 'man' equal to a warrior. It is not speaking of clothing, but armor or war garb.

    These legalistic ministers all have different rules. Some churches can, some can't, depends on the congregation your in, etc. etc.
