why not ask them? could be a personal choice not a religious one (jmo)

seems like you are curious about your family CULTURE,which most often dictates our mannerisms, rituals, and dress

you should ask one of your elders in your family to learn more about your personal culture

i have never seen any of the women in my family wear pants, my great grand mother believe it's a tradition that the family goes by, and we cover the women heads not the face just the head part

Yeah most of my family is too...I don't think it's that they can't wear pants, but they don't wear them to church.

Like a babushka? My grandma wore them. I figured it was a Hunki (peasant) thing.

To me, a woman wearing a skirt is more sexually attractive than a woman wearing pants. Perhaps the women in your family simply want to look attractive.

It's cheaper and easier to make a skirt or dress than slacks.

Plus the selection of material is limited.

In many Eastern European cultures the men wear pants the women wear dresses that's it.

Women, even in the U.S. did not start wearing slacks until around the thirties. It was considered manish.

my family is also russian and what you are describing is an orthodox jewish custom..especially the covering of the head. Skirts, dresses are pretty typical of any group, especially if they have European descent.

A woman has to be wearing a skirt or a dress if she is going to look good in boots.
