Question
I WANT TO KNOW IF SPANDEX  WEARING IS OK JUST FOR FUN?

Answer
Tight, revealing clothing, is not appropriate for a TRUE Christian. I never allowed my youths to dress in clothes that were too tight or too revealing.

"What you wear sends out a message to others. Back in Bible times, wearing certain styles of clothing branded a person as being immoral or promiscuous. (Proverbs 7:10) The same is often true today; tight, flashy, or revealing clothing can attract the wrong kind of attention. True, some may feel they have a right to wear whatever they desire, however the Bible's advice admonishes women to “adorn themselves in well-arranged dress, with modesty and soundness of mind.” (1 Timothy 2:9) Dress modestly, and you may be less likely to be a target of abusive speech or actions.

all the best
