Reply To: Setting up a MO girl with a serious Lakewood bochur = good idea or not?

Mrs Joseph – “I challenge you to name one or two of the allegedly “many great bnei Torah (and even gedolim) of previous generations had wives that did not cover their hair.

Do a bit of homework and you will be astounded to discover some of the most well-lnown gedolim and poskim zal wives did not cover their hair (at least not till much later). It is documented (in pictures) and mesorah among those in the know.

Besides that one known godol of last generation when asked, replies “yesh al mi lismoch”, the Aruch HaShulchan lamented that it was common in his time, too. The Ben Ish Chai comments on it too.

Just do a bit of homework so there is no need to name names in public.
