Reply To: Setting up a MO girl with a serious Lakewood bochur = good idea or not?

wasnt me, – “The majority of MO who refuse to do it don’t do so out of a Halachic argument rather out of precedent- they know there were some very distinguishable people whose wives didn’t cover their hair. ”

Is that not the same with those that use cholov akum – how many actually researched the issue (or even looked up Reb Moshe’s teshuva) before they decided that they can be maykil?

How many learned the halochos of eruv in a metropolitan and examined the eruv of their city before deciding that they can use this eruv?!

Get real: we ALL rely on precedent!

You eat in an eatery without checking if the hechsher is up to date and confirming with kashrus org because you see other frum people buying their pizza there.

In halacha this is an accepted rule: check what other people are doing!
