LuL – I thought you were discussing women. I did not think of that section of Shulchan Aruch (Orech Chaim) which discusses dressing oneself. The Mishna Berurah does say that one should keep covered all that is normally covered outside. Modeh.
That being said, it still has nothing to do with our discussion of pictures.
Tachlis, I asked my Rav for the halachic source, and I will bring it soon. I just want to verify something first.
I await your response with bated breath.
I am kind of surprised that this concept is such a chiddush for you. You never heard of girls not watching movies?? Or at least being careful what movies they watch???
A movie (which also has guys) is different than a catalog (assuming it only has girls), unless that catalog is made for the purpose of causing hirhurim. I’m not Choshed you about that being your question or concern.
Think about it from the opposite perspective for a minute. Is a male not allowed to see another man’s elbows or knees? Hear him sing? Swim in the same swimming pool?
Why would it be any different for women with other women?
