“After listening to my teachers and a lot of thinking, this year I made a kabala to upgrade my tznius. No more short skirts, no slits, no denim, no bobby socks or bare legs, opaque tights every day (sleeves and necklines were never an issue). so far so good … but the hot days on sukkos were hard.”
I read through the entire thread and being somewhat new to this I am a little confused. I understand why short skirts and slits are inappropriate and, after reading the posts, I can even understand why some people want to avoid denim. I am not sure I understand why bobby socks, bare legs and opaque tights are an issue. I know that in some chasidic communities many women wear black tights. Is this required for everyone, especially with a long skirt? Am I doing something wrong by wearing short socks, knee highs or pantyhose?
