I would like to know what we should do about “frum” girls who repeatedly, and blatantly, go in public in pritzusdika clothing. (e.g. their knees show sometimes, or the clothing is tight, etc.)???

Its a terrible blight on Bnos Yisroel. And it negatively affects not only the individual engaging in this reprehensible behavior, but it is a slap in the face against the klal. And as was mentioned by others previously, one person doing this causes mass aveiros amongst many innocent persons. (Men can’t walk in the street with their eyes closes, so they will at least briefly see her.)

Should we ostracize these public repeated blatant overt careless arrogant conceited aggressive sinners??? Publicly humiliate them??? And I don’t mean just the girl, but her father/husband if he tolerates her public behavior too must be penalized. This scourge has been contaminating our streets for too long already. And despite all our Rabbonims many premonitions on this inyan, it still has not been eradicated!

We’re not even asking anyone to be like Kimchis. We are simply talking about basic bare minimum tznius compliance. The pain is unbearable. This open mass sinning is tremendously hurting us all!

i believe they should be given a warning privately. if they don’t change their behavior, they should then be put into cheirim.

I agree. Wearing pritzus is worse than eating treif. Eating treif you are doing an aveira youself, bein adam l’mokom. Wearing pritzus you are doing an aveira yourself – bein adam l’mokom, and causing untold scores of others to sin – bein adam l’chaveiro.

well put.
