areivim, you’re such an instigator.<<

You see right through me moish. When there’s no action, make some. That’s my motto 😉

squeak- good question… very good question. I’d like to hear what Chofetzchaim, chacham, ROB, Joseph etc. have to say to this.

oomis- I have to say this is very new to me. I’ve never heard of women staying up shavuos night to learn. Not only is it not a minhag for the women to do this, women don’t have a chiyuv to learn at all (aside for what they need to be mechanech children properly). I am absolutely NOT saying women shouldn’t learn (in general). I just can’t comprehend why a woman would stay up through the night. It’s a new & strange concept to me. (I hope I don’t sound narrow minded. I don’t mean it’s wrong or unacceptable, it’s just new to me.)
