Avirah: “If she indeed is an exceptional woman, refined in mind and middos, like bruriah, then she, knowing herself and her capabilities, will not make Torah into divrei havai.”
Is a woman to decide on her own that she will not turn Torah into divrei havai c”v? How can she decide that before she has learnt Torah and knows what the dangers are?
I would say the same thing about men (I’m feeling very woke at the moment) were it not for the fact that all Jewish men (I’m not quite feeling woke enough to say “all Jews who identify as men”.) are commanded to study Torah at all times. So that absolves them from judging themselves prior to learning Torah.
