Comments: What are the requirements for a woman's dress in the Jehovah Witness religion?

Standards Dress Women Witnesses Jehovah

If a person's desire is to please God, than modesty, and soundness of mind should rule out.
This is what the Bible has to say.

Keys to the standard-
"Well-arranged dress""¦They are not to be sloppy, untidy, or unkempt in their appearance
"Modesty and soundness of mind'"¦ dress should not be showy, bizarre, or provocative.

Does the scripture indicate that Christian women should not wear jewelry? No! The key is modesty.
Yes! Jehovah's Witness women are attractive, without being provocative, and their dress is well pleasing to God.

Oddly enough whenever they come to my home I don't see the women wearing any pants, is that not allowed? They are always well dressed, clean cut, etc.

During Christian meetings or engaging in ministry work our sisters do not wear pants, (Deuteronomy 22:5) however at home or at work they may choose to do so.

Thank you FairMaiden for relating your kind observation of my dear sisters.

Well I believe in being modest, not over the top or anything but your "sisters" do keep themselves presentable. I figure if you are going into a home where a husband and wife are this is extra important because you don't want the spouse getting ideas.

Besides Muslims who take modest dress to the extreme I've always liked the way women from the Jehovah Witnesses keep themselves very dignified. I can't hold the true for many other church goers, some of them look like they are going dancing or elsewhere.

I do not believe in the doctrine of this religion but I will say that their women and their men too have the highest dress standards.

Jehovah Witnesses Women Dress Standards General Religious Beliefs

I thik they take the teachings of the bible a bit far with what they find acceptable to wear or not. I do not fault them for their beliefs as that is what they believe and that is great. I do find them well dressed, clean and ell groomed. I think others should be just as well kept, clean and groomed but some I wonder about. IF everyone followed the bibles tip on dressing their would be more nicely dressed people running about.
