The following report is from Study Finds:
As times change, a new study finds the line between men’s and women’s fashion is becoming a lot blurrier. Seven in 10 young adults believe their style has become more gender-fluid than that of previous generations.
That’s according to a new poll that surveyed 500 Gen Z women, 500 Gen Z men, 500 millennial women, and 500 millennial men to uncover how the younger generations look at fashion and jewelry trends.
Fashion For All
Among all respondents, 70 percent claim that their style is more likely to change and is less bound by traditionally “male” or “female” expectations of fashion. Sixty percent describe their style as “casual” and half believe they will still be “fashionable” in 10 years. Another 40 percent don’t think their style will change during that time.
Millennials were a bit more set on keeping their current looks, with 46 percent saying they’ll stick to it for the next decade – compared to 42 percent of Gen Zers.
The poll, conducted by OnePoll on behalf of De Beers Group, also revealed that 71 percent agree that it is more socially acceptable for men to wear jewelry today than it was just a few years ago. Nearly two-thirds (65%) of young men feel more confident when they wear jewelry.
Half of all respondents wear jewelry for parties, followed by 46 percent who wear it for a graduation and 45 percent who do for someone else’s wedding. Overall, almost three in five (59%) are hoping to receive an expensive piece of jewelry this holiday season — including just as many men (61%) as women (59%).
Diamond stud earrings are the most popular type of jewelry on wish lists regardless of gender. One in three say earrings are the most common pieces of jewelry they wear.
While there’s historical precedent for men wearing jewelry to denote status or wealth or for cultural reasons, current male jewelry trends are more about individuality, self-expression and confidence.

The Term ‘Fashionable’ Is Evolving
While a few respondents defined the term as “up to date,” others said that it goes deeper than wearing what’s popular. One young adult even describes it as: “when you are dressed to satisfy yourself.”
When looking for fashion inspiration, a majority of respondents (46%) get their ideas from social media. Aside from friends and family, the top three biggest types of fashion resources are influencers (45%), music artists (42%), and fashion icons (41%). The poll finds these “influencers” have that name for a reason; 62 percent of respondents are likely to try a new style if they see their favorite celebrity or influencer wearing it first.
On the other hand, more than half the poll (55%) have between one and six pieces of jewelry passed down to them from older relatives.
While fashion changes constantly, particularly in the age of social media, personal style is developed at a slower burn. Finding precious talismans, like fine jewelry that define who you are, are about personal identification and provide a real anchor to the changing trends we experiment with.
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman’s garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God.
Deuteronomy 22:5
[9] In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array; [10] But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works.1 Timothy 2:9-10
I mention this report because it just goes to show how far the “culture” of the world has sunken into the pit of rebellion, perversion, feminism, effeminacy, transvestitism, and so forth; not too mention the arrogance of people these days trying so hard to “flex” on each other, by showing off their Rolex watch or Guchi purse so they can seek self-validation.
The women don’t want to be women, and men don’t want to be men; and Satan is having a time of it, and therefore is another reason why the Lord’s judgment is upon this whole world right now, will continue to get worse as the people refuse to repent.
[16] Moreover the LORD saith, Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with stretched forth necks and wanton eyes, walking and mincing as they go, and making a tinkling with their feet: [17] Therefore the Lord will smite with a scab the crown of the head of the daughters of Zion, and the LORD will discover their secret parts. [18] In that day the Lord will take away the bravery of their tinkling ornaments about their feet, and their cauls, and their round tires like the moon, [19] The chains, and the bracelets, and the mufflers, [20] The bonnets, and the ornaments of the legs, and the headbands, and the tablets, and the earrings, [21] The rings, and nose jewels, [22] The changeable suits of apparel, and the mantles, and the wimples, and the crisping pins, [23] The glasses, and the fine linen, and the hoods, and the vails. [24] And it shall come to pass, that instead of sweet smell there shall be stink; and instead of a girdle a rent; and instead of well set hair baldness; and instead of a stomacher a girding of sackcloth; and burning instead of beauty. [25] Thy men shall fall by the sword, and thy mighty in the war. [26] And her gates shall lament and mourn; and she being desolate shall sit upon the ground.Isaiah 3:16-26
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

I was thinking Isaiah 3, too. If they keep ignoring the word of God & warning, soon they won’t have much to say about it at all, if they even survive what is coming. It will all be pretend in the METAverse, an early death by culling, then Hell.
