So this friend of mine calls me up on erev yontiff, and says that a friend of hers is in [city] for yontiff, and do I know of any places she can go for a meal there. Like a chabad or something.
So I say, well where in the city is she? And she says, it doesn’t matter because this friend will take a car on yontiff.
So I said: Oh, then I’m not telling you where the meals are.
(Yes yes, I know I missed a cheshbon, because I should have figured out if I knew anywhere within a few blocks of where she was staying.)
Why do you have friends of the female persuasion?
popa
You are a Rabbi with female friends?
The subtitle covers that question in more ways than one, I think.
You are a female? I always thought you were a male.
I think its important to know if one is speaking to a male or a female and besides, there are some people who may be makpid to not even talk online in such a forum to women so if you (or any other member) are a woman pretending to be a man or vice versa you are causing people a michshol. Additionally, I don’t believe it is Halachically ok to lie to people for fun or whatever you want to call it.
I think it should be permitted to drive (on Yom Tov), provided you ignite the engine with an existing flame. Should have indicated it to her.
