re: #446 SanFranciscoZionist
Exactly this same argument has been applied to women’s slacks, of course, and still is in many communities.
Yes it is, and I already said twice that I personally think that is too strict. I do not think that womens slacks look like men’s slacks or that men could easily wear them, so I really do not have an issue with it and would not at the Kotel.
Actually to be fair, I have no issue with however any Jewish person prays in their own shul or in their own home. That is really not my point. Even though I personally may disagree with certain things in the Tradition, the Kotel is the center of it, and somewhere on the planet, especially there, the Tradition should remain pristine.
