“..way back in europe/russia/spain/poland/italy etc. No mechitzas existed..”
Really? Maybe they didn’t daven or learn then eaither? Care to recall the story of the Satmar Rav when he was in Europe? – How someone was grinded in his own grinding plant, because he didn’t listen to the Rav’s warnings about having a Mechitza.

Firstly the satmar rebbe was not a novi or a ban navi . He was rebbeh! Nothing more nothing less!
There’s a saying that when it comes to sipurei tzaddikim (tales of the righteous), if you believe every story you are a certified idiot and if you dont believe any of it then you are an apikorus.
