We asked her and she said that she and Zach prayed about their family's standards and convictions. Whitney wears pants some of the time but when she is with the Bates family she will wear skirts for filming and around them to respect the choices.
She has said that Gil and Kelly love her no matter what she wears.

Whitney, as long as love God and believe in Him, it doesn't matter about what you wear. God looks on the inside. I wouldn't wear those skinny jeans or the tight leggings.
ReplyDeleteI dont care what she wears. I love her and the whole Bates family. I feel like they are an encouragement and inspiration to all who watch them or come in contact with them.
ReplyDeleteI'm a Christian and have never been convicted not to wear pants and I'm 61 years old modest clothes. But I love the show and what it is telling families. I was in a church years ago that tried to push dresses and no makeup for women and girls all it did was push people away. God's looking for people willing to go reach more people not fight about cloths. I have 4 girls we adopted we watch the show all the time because it teaches get principles.
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen her in pants, now Alyssa has, alone with legging as pants, and you know, I think it's about being modest, pants can be worn, if the top is long enough,specially if the pants are tight, there is nothing modest about women wearing tight pants, and not covering with a longer top, and may I say legging are not pants, they are more like hose, that has got out of hand.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you Terry about leggings as pants...they are not pants...
DeleteBoth of my daughters and I actually prefer to wear leggings under our skirts and dresses as they are just more comfortable than tights or hose, and up here in Minnesota we have to cover our legs this time of year or you'll get frost bite easy :)
DeleteGood for her. There is nothing wrong with a Christian woman wearing pants. It is not a sin. I love the Bates family, but this legalism has to stop.
ReplyDeleteI think that as long as a woman is not convicted about wearing pants, there is nothing wrong with it. But I do think that Whitney should just be herself and wear pants whenever she wants to. I can understand her respecting her in-laws views on clothing, but she is an adult and should do as she see's fit. I do agree that tight pants are not in good taste, but I can not see Whitney being anything but tastefully dressed.
ReplyDeleteVery true. I wear jeans on a certain day but besides that I am only in skirts and dresses. It's all about how you feel comfortable :)
Deletejeez Louise!!! This is so sad that we have this topic, I agree with other as long as the pants aren't inappropriately tight, good on her for wearing pants. The one thing we all should do is respect everyones choice. I find some skirts more in appropriate than pants, if we all wore pants we all men and women are on even par of what we can accomplish ie what we can do physically like lifting etc, but on ethical standard, if we all look the same, there is no hierarchy
