Cover Your Shame

from Holy Watermelon · host Holy Watermelon

Religious clothing is as varied as any other kind of fashion, but there are a few common themes that we will highlight:Chastity is encouraged in modesty, and it's weird that covering your hair is more important that loose-fitting tops; weirder still when covering your hair with more hair has religious pressure on the cultural misstep.Fancy hats are everywhere, in a wide variety of styles remind us to think of our gods, and tell others that we're focused on what's important to our grandparents.Temples and priesthoods are also associated with specific clothing, including Hindu, Jain, Buddhist,  Catholic, and Latter-day Saint (Brighamite Mormon) traditions. All this and more.... Support us on Patreon or you can get our merch at Spreadshop.Join the Community on Discord.Learn more great religion factoids on Facebook and Instagram.

Wearing pants isn't for everyone, some people will say so with religious conviction.... Religious clothing serves a few purposes, but most important is conveying to gods and neighbours that you are devoted to your faith (or faith community).
