I am happy to report that this Shabbos at mincha I saw many people without ties. They have accepted this new chumrah because of the discussion on this thread! It was a nachas to watch them be mochiach others who were wearing ties by pointing out the error of their ways. B”H!!
And I’m happy to point out that I wore a tie by Mincha this Shabbos, and the previous one and the one before that and as far back as I can recall. And, furthermore, I don’t have any intention of stopping based on anything you may say in this thread.
