Look I amdit I made up my number if it is wrong I wont lose any sleep.
The entire question is a bit vague “typical frum home” is hard to define. how learned are they? How confident are they? How clumsy are they? (obviously the family that often splashes milk all over the place while the chicken sou is already up will have more shailas than the family that doesnt.)
you say “that people have sheilahs approximately twice a week” ok so I guess we run in different circles, as I odnt see how that is possible.
A few quick points though
“Most women have never learned Mishna Berura. ”
True, but Joseph’s comment was about the typical frum household, which usually isnt just women.
“I suspect that there are many men who also do not know how to look things up in the Mishna Berurah. I also suspect that there are many men who think that they know how to look things up in the Mishna Berurah, but do not (or make mistakes more often than they should).”
The discussion is about “typical frum homes” I grant there are some who cannot read a Mishne Berura but It is fair to say the “Typical” product of a yeshiva system can.
“Furthermore, not all sheilahs (even the daily/weekly type) can be answered by looking it up in the Mishna Berurah. ”
By far most can. the only ones you may have trouble with are technological questions (and of course non-OC questions) I concede there wil l still be a few shailas as I said. note I ever said no questions arise
