Avira,
“ It doesn’t mean that if you yourself decided that something chazal forbid or at the very least, you’ll agree, discourage, should be a mitzvah, that Hashem will protect you from the damage that can come from it that is included in chazals own statements. Lubavitchers don’t get a special shmira more than anyone else.”
Again, this wasn’t something decided by women today. Rabbanim encouraged women to have a greater Torah education. My Rebbe wanted women to learn/ have access to all learning, generally, because of the different world states today(same reason as other Rabbonim.) This has nothing to do with feminism. I’m not interested in wearing Tallis and tefillin (in any case I get the Mitzvah by my other half fulfilling them.) it’s about what Hashem wants of me today (not 2000 years ago.) the Alter Rebbe writes that the Torah of the generation is revealed through the Rabbonim of the time. Obviously the mitzvos never change. But this isn’ta Mitzvah and Halacha does change by the situation.
