sechel, I never suggested that a non-tznius woman should be thrown out of the community. What I would like to see, however, is that there is a generally accepted attitude in Crown Heights, and other Lubavich communities, that non-tznius is TOTALLY unacceptable.
If it would be the BTs who were the only ones who were not tzniusdik, I could understand, but don’t fool yourself, it isn’t! I have lived in areas with a large Lubavich presence – and as I have mentioned many times, I have close relatives who are Lubavich – and what I have literally seen b’oness with my own eyes has at times shocked me. And I’m referring to women who are makpid to wear sheitels in public because that’s what the LR wanted. (I don’t want to elaborate further, or even go there in my mind, because you’re not allowed to remember those sights!)
If these women weren’t stam ‘accepted’ the way they are, but they were repeatedly approached and told that their mode of dress is unconsionable, and that it would be better if they stayed at home, perhaps it would help. Ah, but in Lubavich we let everyone do as they want on their own level… and that’s why we have so much attrition (which we constantly deny, but which everyone else knows about).
