The women we are discussing are MARRIED women who should know better. They are wearing the requisite (very long) Shaitels but the rest of the clothing would make you think the person is not Frum. Don’t they see what they’re teaching their daughters? That they are objects? That they have no real self respect and will sell themselves out just to get a stare or some attention? I’m not clear on the explanation that “you don’t understand the struggle we’re going through and our yetzer hara which makes us want to dress like that!” what exactly is the pleasure you are deriving from wearing a short skirt and tight clothes and being stared at as if you are a floozy. Is it knowing that men are looking? Is it revenge against your husband who is used to you and maybe doesn’t look at you or compliment you so much any more? What exactly is it doing for you? And aren’t your children more important, instilling proper values in them so they won’t learn to objectify themselves like you do? And what about your Neshama and those of the people you are causing to sin? Think about the next world and or just a moment’s pleasure today!
