oomis,
It’s very dangerous to say that women should not do optional stuff before they finish doing required stuff.
Firstly, who are we to determine what they should or shouldn’t do?
Secondly, do you shake lulav and esrog? Eat in a sukkah? Listen to Shofar?
Why? Do you do everything you’re supposed to do?
And I’m not a big fan of WOW, I think most feminists are wackadoodles, but if this brings them closer to Hashem, then I really don’t see the big deal of having them daven in the women’s section. Politically as well, it does not make sense to fight this. It’s a losing battle and is just causing more animosity, which will cause more people to actually not give in to charedi demands. It’s the classic case of biting your nose to spite your face.
