josh that was exactly my original question. See the third post on this page, for more detail.
Also, i don’t understand your post. So you do think that the tallis katan worn by the majority of frum jews, in between their shirts and their undershirts, has a function?
(the rest of my serious query was not allowed by the mods, for some reason)
Also, Haleivi, what is the purpose that our tallis katan beged serves (aside to make one sweaty and uncomfortable in many cases)?
