bpt: I’m msseeker’s daughter. I was personally offended when you accused my mother of lying. FYI, “msseeker” is truly seeking the emes. One of my friends’ mother wears red nail polish, sleeves that barely covers her elbows, yet her daughter is a true satmar talmidah. And I’m proud to say, she is one of the frummest in our class! You can choose to believe this or not, but like my mother, I too seek the emes.
It really amused me that you think Kiryas Yoel is so open minded. I wouldn’t live there if my life depended on it. Talk about sheltered.
I personally didn’t witness the graduation, but my mother did. She was a young sheltered girl then and thought it hilarious when the girl’s male relatives kissed her.
My mother told me her name, which I can’t exactly post here, but you can verify the truth if you can get hold of anyone who graduated there in 1984.
I appreciate your appreciation of our chessed. Just think, if you would tell MO about the chessed Satmar does, they too would think you were joking.
