This is not a feminist issue. It’s a Jewish issue. Although women have no obligation to learn there is no doubt in my mind that those who do turn out to be the leading teachers and the strongholds of families that remain Jewish al-pi HaDerech. The women I’ve most respected since coming to a Torah way of life are those who could have been rebbeim in their own right had they been men. They are tzidkonios and they bring others to emulate them.
