Just to beat a dead horse, within the confines of the issur of t’sar baalei chayim , I’ll return to the theme of how often men show up at simchas and civil functions dressed in ill-fitting, frumpy, torn and sometimes dirty/smelly clothes but I don’t hear the cries of “tzinius” that seem to arise almost constantly if c’v a woman’s hem is 7 mm above her knee or if a portion of the arm above the wrist is showing on a very warm day…..you can try and rationalize it by saying its a totally different inyan of “kavod” for the occasion or venue but that’s simply a rationalization…..either be consistent or learn to surpress your sexist view of Tzinius….
