Flatbush, people who don’t dress tzanua are a different topic altogether. And don’t think that its confined to the three communities you chose to mention – there are plenty of people who don’t dress appropriately in other communities. No one is perfect, but they arent professing that they are better than anyone.
As to who they look ridiculous to? ME. They look hot and sweaty FOR NO REASON. Yes, to me that is ridiculous. I also think when women wear pointy shoes (100% accepted in todays society) that they look stupid. Plenty of very frum women wear them – does that mean thats what I should be wearing? I am not sure why you are so offended by the fact that I don’t believe in following non-sensical fashion statements, especially when you attacked those who DON’T wear this clothing.
Are you trying to say that people who don’t wear “the accepted garb for Torah learned individuals” are not Torah learned people?
I have the utmost respect for people who wear kippot and tzitzit, as that is a sign of keeping Torah and mitzvot. Not someone wearing a black hat (especially when it has nothing to do with davening).
