Reply To: How much is a woman's Torah worth

That last comment makes you sound very bitter about SOMETHING. Why exactly should an enabler of Torah get all/most of the reward over the ones who learns ?

The same reason why the enabler of Tzedaka gets more reward than the one who gives it (Offen a Gemorah). In many cases, it is harder to be the enabler than the doer (as interjection

points out) and L’fum Tzara Agra.

For 12+ years we are graded on, not on how well we learned the Torah but rather on how well we understand our teacher’s interpretation of the Torah. We are conditioned to learn Torah in the way that you explained with fluffy mussar lessons, while the boys are taught more to focus on what the Torah said, rather than on what they wished the Torah said. So it’s no wonder that our learning patterns later on in life reflect how we were taught to learn.

+1000000. One of my pet peeves is that BY & Sems don’t teach real sources.

golfer:

Modern scientific advances in brain mapping continue to confirm that a woman’s brain does function differently than a man’s brain, and both are superior in different areas.

Maasim Bechol Yom we see that they can “absorb the knowledge in a disciplined manner” (and certainly in the secular world). Are you willing to claim “Nishtane HaTeva”? And if you are right, why are women taught Nach with Meforshim, which also needs “discipline” similar to learning Gemorah?
