Apushatyid, denied because your father wore a straw hat to the farher?? That sounds so disturbing. I’m sure you did ok, but what disgusting attitudes for a young man to observe! Not to mention your father!
I can’t think of a Yeshiva I know of that would do that. Mind if I ask, was it extreme “Willi – style” chassidish? Or did you live in Israel? I’ve found Israelis have very low tolerance levels for anyone who digresses a millimeter from their perceived “norm.”
