GAW: “LUL – Not at all. My argument was that many women whom you consider not following the Halachos of Tznius really are, whether MO or Chassidish.”

Not at all what? How do you know what I consider following the halachos of tznius? I didn’t specify any halachos in my original post. When I said halachos, I meant things that are halacha and not minhag hamakom, whatever those halachos may happen to be.

If you want me to be more specific: hair that is not covered at all, knees, upper arm above the elbow, mixed swimming, shorts.

On the other hand, I was not referring to not wearing socks which is minhag hamakom or to the elbows themselves which might not be assur halachically, or to nail polish of any color.

Just curious- what did you think I was referring to? Wearing thick stockings? Wearing burkas?
