Jent:

Nobody here is an amorah. Or anywhere close.

And there you go again, calling people who you’ve never met am haaretzes. I am quite aware of human FALLIBILITY. Human fallibility dictates that first and foremost, humans must work on THEMSELVES to restrain their own yetzer.

If a woman is dressed in an untzniusdik fashion, and you truly do everything in your power to control your yetzer, and it REALLY is a case where someone else causes you to sin, do you think that HKBH cannot judge you based on your culpability. Is HKBH a giant calculator with only two buttons, aveirah or mitzvah?

Increasing tznius community-wide is not an inappropriate goal. But it must be done through the right methods. And phrasing it as “we must control our women” is more indicative of the Taliban than it is yiddishkeit.
