I understand modern yeshivish to be someone who has Torah values, learns daily and/or is in yeshiva, but is also open to the secular world. Usually yeshivish people, will label anything outside the direct torah world to be wrong and not appropriate.

For example, I learn daily and I go to yeshiva daily. I don’t wear the whole white shirt, black pants every day. I don’t believe that you have to wear a hat and jacket to be religious. What we consider non-jewish music, is fine with me. Movies and TV shows are fine, but I wouldn’t want a tv at home.

Although you write that you consider it “fine” this posting is not in agreement that there are not halachic problems with such activities, nor is it a statement that other’s in your position feel the same as you do.
