Chapter 9

Well I wasn’t prepared for scripture, and this chapter probably could’ve been a little shorter. The long of the short that I got from it was that people are people and even though they are in a much different way of life here, friends are willing to overlook things that they don’t necessarily agree with. The fact that Mary and Eric were anything but Anabaptist has meant little to their development as part of this culture. Still not quite sure what the deal is with the pants and dresses for women. From what I got, fat women should not wear pants. If anyone has any clarification on this it would be much appreciated.

I think that big poofy skirts covers big butts and thighs? And all the women wore big poofy skirts so that no one knew who had big bottoms! That's how I interpreted it. Yea right - everyone still knew!
