    wow, i dont know where to start!

    wolfish

    “MO temple

    Subtle jibe?”

    that’s what it was called

    On re-read, it’s obvious from the previous paragraph that SJS left out “on shabbos” WRT watching TV.

    On that count, I have to agree. I know of NO MO rabbi who would allow one to watch TV on Shabbos. Your example above is obviously not relevant since you failed to notice that SJS left out “on shabbos.” (Unless, of course, you think that the presence of a TV in his office means that he’s watching it on Shabbos.)

    i don’t get it

    1) whats “wrt”

    2)how is it obvious

    “You want to disallow symbols/words — I can understand that.

    You want a minimum size — I can understand that.

    You want a particular color — I can understand that.”

    i’m not disallowing it, it’s perfectly kosher, it just shows what stream of orthodoxy he’s from

    then again I know someone that I would consider MO in the way he was dressed (like wearing a kippah srugah) but he wen’t to a shtark camp and everyone looked to him as the masmid.

    “I’ve never heard of a MO Rabbi who says its ok to watch TV (or go mixed swimming in a bathing suit or other things). “

    I beg to differ, from the few MO rabbis i know, they would tell you that.

    I know a rabbi that has a TV in his office (obviously that gives it a stamp of approval)

    I know a different “rav” that was the rabbi of a MO temple and left it to become a rabbi in a conservative school, but that’s not where i’m dealing with, i’ll tell you an encounter i had with him.

    I bought something after pesach that had a shayloh if it was chametz she’avar alav hapesach (the store could’ve been jewishly owned), and i asked him because he was a rav of the Kashrut orginazation of the city where the store was located.

    He responded what does it matter anyway because IT’S ONLY A D’RABBANAN implying (at least to me) you don’t need to follow d’rabbanans (maybe i’m going overboard but this was how i felt)

    Anyway it was taarovos so it was muttar regardless

    in other words you could be a yeshiva bachur or even a rav for all i care i’m just dealing with what you are saying (not the person who is sending it)

    aries,

    I have to mention again,

    i for sure don’t think i’m talking to a man/woman when i’m “chatting” i think i’m talking tro a person,

    if this was a webchat confrence that would be totally different

    aries, (and tzippy too i guess)

    no one hears sees or hears the other person for all you know it could be someone else writing

    i for sure don’t see a problem in the regard of mixed talking

    (remember the chachamim said Kol b’eisha ervah, not the writing of an eisha)

    oomis,

    may i counter that i wouldn’t be suprised if the women had a hand in the men’s bittul torah (or really lack of kavod torah), if the women were mechashev it the men would follow

    wellinformedyid,

    there is a well known halacha called mechitzos in a shul. The reason being is because of the sensitivities of the people davening, because Halacha knows that men will get distracted if they are around women. I wouldn’t be suprised that the reason there is no halacha about women congregating the streets is because they didn’t if they did then there would be one, taking into account mens sensitivities.

    well informed yid,

    you bring up a good point that he has this problem

    but you realize tanaim and amoraim had this taavah too

    case 1) the grandson of choni hamagel

    case 2,3,4) (sorry i’m horrible at remembering names or where it is in the gemara)when the satan comes dressed as a woman either they would’ve been nichshol not for their torah or one bored his eyes out

    definitely the solution isn’t that he shouldn’t go outside b/c he has to (daven, learn etc.)

    the answer to women being untzniusdik (out in the open) shouldn’t be that it’s your fault for loking at them

    correct, but a chatzer was an enclosed area unlike a front yard

    sjsinnyc,

    the gemara says Kol kvodah bas melech PENIMAH that means inside the house as opposed to outside the house (including chatzer)

    In my community actually, there is a weekly shiur that the wives go to and they congregate and shmuz over there, i think it’s the best idea

    the prophecies im talking about are like something from the talmidim of the talmidim of the gra that moshiach is supposed to come before this past rosh chodesh av, or that the thing with birchas hachama being rosh chodesh nisan only happened 3 times once by yetzias mitzraim (not true btw), there are countless others and if you want i can say them too.

    I hear what your saying kapusta

    oomis,

    i’ve realized men and women have different definitions for communication.

    men communicate to give information

    women communicate because they need to talk

    Haqer,

    why couldn’t they ask their uncle

    aries,

    that’s a good idea but what yb613 is talking about is girls congregating in the streets I totally agree they should congregate at someone’s house (preferrably one that has no yeshiva aged boys)

    mbachur: A “frum” person cant go to the beach by definition. (Unless its some unknown separate gender beach where it is completely invisible AND inaccessible to the opposite gender.)

    exactly!!! a person who portrays himself as frum in NY but in FL away from everyone else he goes to the beach (hence frum in quotations)

    I think they should be tested, and then they can marry other people that are like that.

    I think its perfectly fine. A lot of times it’s in the kallah’s city, so technically biyah reshonah is supposed to be in his rishus and her parent’s house doesn’t qualify (this is also true by his parents) and they’re planning on living somewhere else so i think it’s fine.

    the roman noblelady preceded you!

    she had 1,000 man slaves and 1,000 female slaves and said this one should marry that one and everybody got all bruised so I don’t think it will work sorry

    I think it’s fine, being a BT I was used to goyishe music and believe me as long as the tune isn’t from a goyishe song I’m happy with it b/c really it’s mostly the words.
