Charliehall: I should have been more clear. When I said men do not have to keep these mitzvos “AS WOMEN ARE OBLIGATED TO” I meant they are not obligated IN THE SAME WAY: certainly, as i said, men can do those things, just girls are taught that those are THEIR mitzvos. Sort of: men CAN, but women MUST–the way that men must do those other things, and women can, but don’t necessarily have to. (and yes, i know my husband can take challah for me and he can light the candles for me…)
