bbubbee,
I guess we have to disagree.
1. At our age, my wife and I can take a room with a king sized
bed in a hotel. You are judging us as not being tzniusdik
by your standards.
2.I feel bad for your friend in dire economic straits. Does that
require all sellers of goods and services that she cannot
afford have to stop advertising? Does that mean that donations
of amounts larger that she can afford to give should no
longer be announced at appeals because it throws it in
her face? Where does it stop?
There is a growing tendency to , rather than exercising self
restraint, remove temptation by banning the activity for everyone. I see it in the annual ” I don’t
like the idea of Pesach hotels so noone should go “
and in secular areas. I recently heard a radio program dealing with people with an inability to control thier overeating. One indiviual’s solution to his inability to stop eating donuts was to ban any advertising by Dunkin Donuts.
