GAW, I don’t have time and energy for this discussion tonight. I hope to respond tomorrow, but a few important points I do want to make now:

GAW: “LUL – I await you going through the Sugyah, not quoting others and writing their opinions. You may as well copy and paste FrumTeens.

Would you please inform us who you are quoting?”

Excuse me! That is rather insulting! I am not in the habit of just quoting random people without looking things up myself. I know how to learn, thank you. And I certainly don’t copy and paste from Frumteens.

My source for the Shulchan Arucha and Mishna Brura were the Shulchan Aruch and Mishna Brura.

The Igros Moshe and R’ Ovadiah were from “Hatzneia Leches” by Rav Ellinson, which is one the only sefarim on hilchos tznius that actually brings sources, which is why it is the only seifer on hilchos tznius that I have any use for. (the translation was my own. So was the transliteration – typing in hebrew takes too long).

I usually try to look things up inside, but since I don’t have an Igros Moshe at home, I was not able to do so Erev Shabbos. But since he brings the sources themselves, it is basically the same thing as looking it up myself.

In any case, I did look up the Igros Moshe tonight inside the actual Sefer, and I did not notice anything different than what was brought in R’ Ellinson’s Sefer.

“LUL – Also, if you ever go through Rishonim and Achronim on a Sugyah, it is normal that the Shittah brings others to support. Then, when looking at the source, it doesn’t support that Shittah, and others bring the source for the other shittah. That is why you always need to look at the source inside.”

I’ve gone through Rishonim and Achronim on Sugyahs, but I didn’t quite understand this sentence. Maybe I’ll try reading it again when I’m more awake. In any case, I usually do look up sources when I can, but I didn’t have the necessary Sefarim. I will try to get ahold of them this week if I can.

I have a lot more to say, but am too tired now, so it will have to wait.
