“You must be joking.”

I’m not joking at all. The shilah was whether Jewish women can vote in democratic elections, and one of the arguments he used in favor was that women can be dayanim. If you find me a frum community that prohibits women from voting (while permitting men to vote) I’ll withdraw my statement.
