Mammele: Rambam Hilchos Ishus 21:7 would actually positively instruct her on taking off the shoes. Listen, I’m not saying there can’t be some tweaks or that it needs to be taught verbatim as published above. But the Bais Yaakov’s teach all sorts of secular stuff, global history, etc. that are far from any Jewish sources. Something pretty benign as above that actually gives very helpful and wise advice on shalom bayis is certainly something to be encouraged. I don’t think anyone objects to lessons in Bais Yaakov on benign or helpful topics, say utilizing Dale Carnegie on public speaking or similar neutral sources on other topics.
