This thread seems to be the place that PAA can say whatever he wants and no one responds…
I have a few of those.
Anyway, to explain my last few posts:
We had been discussing whether women can’t/shouldn’t/can/should/must learn advanced Torah Sheba’al Peh and specifically Gemara. I quoted a few sources. I quoted the Maharil as a source that the problem of Tiflus does not apply if the girl wants to learn on her own. I quoted the Tosefta as a source that women in general can learn Torah Shba’al Peh (although it’s not necessarily the best source because one can simply say that the Tosefta is the opinion of Ben Azzai whereas we pasken like R’ Eliezer*). And I quoted the Lubavitcher Rebbe as a source for the idea that since women nowadays are highly educated in all other areas, they must be highly educated in Torah Sheba’al Peh as well. Finally I quoted the Seridei Eish because if we grant that it is at least a machlokes about whether women can learn advanced Torah Sheba’al Peh, then perhaps we should apply his idea that we should pasken the machlokes against the side which is for lack of a better term “offensive to some people’s sensibilities” and may cause them to mock the Torah. Feel free to disagree with any of my extrapolations/conclusions.
* Referring to the original machlokes tannaim in the mishnah in Sotah 20a wherein Ben Azzai says that one is obligated to teach his daughter Torah and R’ Eliezer says that teaching your daughter Torah is as if you teach her tiflus.
