Charliehall: I have heard that the reason why Rav Soloveichik advocated teaching women Gemora, was so they should experience themselves the intellectualism of the Torah. He felt this was necessary in order to counter the secular influences which portray the Torah as being old fashioned and not comparable to modern intellectualism.
However, in our times it seems that the girls who volunteer to engage in Talmudic study, are not studying out of desire to personally experience the intellectual beauty of the Torah. Rather their motivation seems to be socially driven, as they feel a need to demonstrate their equality to men, which was not at all the intention of Rav Soloveichik Zt”l. I sincerely believe that if these women would be given [by their community] a deeper understanding of the internal/spiritual beauty of the Torah, and the unique role that a woman was given in the Torah to fulfill, then they wouldn’t feel the need to learn Gemora at all.
