The Truth About The Duggar Women's Clothing Rules

Michelle Duggar discussed the Duggar women's penchant for modest attire in a blog for TLC, writing (via The Inquisitr), "For us, we felt like we needed to be covered from our neck to below our knees mainly because God talks about the thigh being uncovered, and how that's nakedness and shame."

As for showing cleavage? That's a big no-no. "We try to make it a habit to always cover the top of our shirt with our hand when we bend over," Jill, Jessa, Jinger, and Jana Duggar, wrote in Growing Up Duggar. "We don't want to play the peekaboo game with our neckline."

Although this might seem extreme to some, the eldest Duggar daughters see things differently. "We do not dress modestly because we are ashamed of the body God has given us; quite the contrary," the ladies penned. "We realize that our body is a special gift from God and that He intends for it to be shared only with our future husband."

As a result, the Duggar women often wear long skirts, dresses, and conservative blouses, while pants are seemingly off-limits for those still living under Jim Bob and Michelle's roof.

Of course, it's fair to wonder why the Duggar men seemingly don't face the same restrictions.
