“Oh Shreck! One more point (I hope mod let’s it in) HaShem gave us a fiery holy Torah as a tavlin to battle a most fiery fleshy yetzer”.
Here is a little conspiracy theory-who doesn’t like them?!!!
But since the women really want to learn Torah, and according to some people on this site, they get the same sechar and Mitzvah as a man(www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/oh-they-just-wanna-be-like-men-1) , then maybe they will now get the same Yetzer Horah/Taivoh as men!!
For the women who think that wearing a skirt that covers the knees is comparable to the same Yetzer Hara (in this area) as men, picture the following.
Imagine not wanting to shop. Now I don’t mean imagine not shopping. I mean imagine not ever WANTING to shop.
(let us assume that we are talking about someone who is single just to make this example easier).
Imagine never ever wanting to shop, this includes averting your eyes when passing a shop window, never going to the mall, never talking to other people about clothes, never thinking that you should ever be buying clothe. Imagine preparing for your sister’s wedding but not talking, thinking, discussing, dreaming or anything regarding what you are going to wear.
Imagine just NEVER thinking about any clothes EVER.
Now we are beginning to understand!
