Flatbusher – thanks for being moichel. I didn’t know anything about others’ comments. I also happen to know of someone who was told that something similar was muttar (or at least not assur). I don’t know the specifics of his situation or the way his sheilah was asked (so I wouldn’t want anyone reading this to make assumptions regarding the permissibility of this) but I also had no reason to assume that it was definitely assur, and I had no reason to pass judgment and did not intend to do so. But I do feel bad if it sounded like I was doing so, and I appreciate your being moichel.
Have a great Yom Tov!
