Question, can a lady be too tznius?”

English Translation:

“Question, can a lady be too modesty?”

Correction:

“Question, can a lady be too tzenu’a?” “

Finally – someone who knows Dikduk! I have been saying that for years. I am so sick of people using the word tznius in an incorrect way, grammatically. TzniusDIG clothing and behavior, ladies!

Taking a Break – Just because your friend feels this way, does not mean she speaks for the majority of women who bedavka buy these gorgeous and expensive robes to be especially worn at the Shabos tish. If one chooses to use such a robe in a cavalier way by wearing it to bed, thus risking RUINING it, that is certainly her prerogative. But I personally would never do that. I imagine it is more likely that what she calls her fancy Shabbos nightgown, is really not what I would call a Shabbos robe.

And yes, I think it is really nice to wear a special nightgown for Shabbos also.
