Joseph: R’ Falk is also a Gaon and a major Talmid Chacham. I didn’t see any personal attacks on him. I saw an attack on his Sefer. There is a claim, in much of the Yeshivish world as well, that his Sefarim on Tznius are meant for a community like Gateshead and are not Halachah L’Ma’aseh for everyone. Either way, I very much agree with the sentiment that the Sefer should not be used by a Ba’alas Teshuvah. Maybe someday someone who already understands and follows Tznius well can move towards it, but it is just not good advice practically for someone to start with it.
