    Torah learning is good in general.

    However, it is bad for women to be learning Torah instead of doing what Hashem created them to do (being wives, mothers, etc). It is even worse for them to be learning history, science, writing,or working instead of doing what they were created to do. It is also bad for them to be posting on YWN instead of doing what they were created to do.

    But if they are learning Torah in addition to all that, that is good.

    Make sense?

    1. What exactly is the difference between a shofetes and a dayan?

    2. writersoul, to my understanding, it can be argued that being a Rabbi isn’t like being a doctor, because you don’t really need smicha in order to do the things being a Rabbi permits you to do (since there isn’t really smicha today anyway.)

    btw your identity is showing. Try to be more careful. (this + some other threads.)

    If Devorah Hanevia could be a shofetes without being a Rabbi, not being a Rabbi obviously doesn’t prevent you from doing much.

    It’s just a title, and most women don’t care about titles anyway (except their husband’s titles.)

    WIY: Not true. $90 is way too expensive for a skirt imho. But if it’s tznius, and people will wear it instead of less tznius denim skirts (and knowing women’s styles that is a strong possibility) I don’t think it’s a bad thing.

    I personally don’t wear denim, but there is nothing essentially wrong with it.

    be good: denim is not even that fashionable any more. but you’re right that to each their own.

    I feel the need to note Denim was invented by a Jew.

    Some stores that would carry it whose names I can recall:

    Elzee, Unique Boutique, Midwood Fashion outlet, Brenda’s, most places in Flatbush

    Stores that would not carry it:

    anyplace chassidish, many places in BP

    Women were also present at Matan Torah.

    I don’t feel the need to, I feel just as good saying Tehillim, but I don’t think it’s necessarily feminist.

    Health: Many boys quit smoking for shidduchim, or when they get engaged. Or at least they claim to. Sometimes it’s true and sometimes it isn’t.

    Ender and Health – nearly every girl I know (and I know a lot of girls) do and will turn down a guy who currently smokes. Nothing to do with the shidduch crisis.

    There are certainly worse vices, but smoking rates pretty high. It shows a lack of foresight, it’s unhealthy, it’s expensive, and it smells. You want your husband to be alive to take care of you and the family. The very few girls willing to date smokers are usually from families where the father/brother smokes, or have other issues that they feel the need to compromise on this.

    There is a simple way to stop smoking in the yeshivos: girls should refuse any shidduchim with guys that smoke.

    What an original idea. No frum girl has ever refused a shidduch with a boy who smoked.

    WIY, are you talking about pot or nicotine?

    Maybe I’m out of it, but I just don’t know anyone who smokes pot. Unless people don’t want to tell me, which is certainly possible.
