mseeker, i’m responding to your question of why should we care, we need to care because we live among literally billions of non jews whom we ask to respect our religious differences and often to make accommodations for us when necessary. if they think us different but normal then they can respect us. it they think us radicals then any religious difference becomes radical. I personally have no problem with newspapers not printing pictures of women, often i think it funny but if you think it more tznius go right ahead. a newspaper that is a public forum has to be careful not to tread on outsider’s toes because until moshiach comes we need to be able to live among non jews peacefully. better to not print pictures obtained from non jewish sources if they need altering then to chance this hulabaloo.
