moish: okay, so that is a nicer way of dressing. but depending on what you are doing, there may be reason not to, & maybe that reason takes precendence over the nicer clothes. (not sure if that came out clearly. sorry.)
flatbush27: i don’t mind if other people want to dress like that. do what you want! the only decision i have to make is what i’m going to wear. and i’m a girl so i don’t have to deal with this 😀
so i’m not trying to convince people of anything, either way.
i’m just saying, your comparisons aren’t equatable – the cons of not wearing hat & jacket are completely different from those of not following halacha.
