I don’t know what you people are talking about! The Mishnah Berurah (???? ?”? ???? ??? ?)states explicitly that the knee is part of the upper section of the leg,which according to all opinions is certainly considered “Shok” and therefore must be completely covered by a skirt or a dress.All the different opinions mentioned in the Halachic literature are in regard to the question of whether the area of the leg from the foot till the knee (but not including the knee itself!)[calf]is considered “Shok” as well,or is “Shok” just the upper part of the leg from the hip until below the knee.All this has absolutely no bearing whatsoever on the issue of covering the knee itself.
