But if someone wears a very nice blue and green striped dry cleaned shirt. And he’s tucked in looking like a mensch does he get the same respect on the street as someone whos wearing a white shirt, but is talking disgustingly and smoking?? we all know the one with the white shirt is one who is precived as the “Ben Torah” and the one with colored is considered fried… WHY???
Perhaps a miut of people actualy do think this way but in general I think “we all know” that it is nonsense. We all think that the others think this way when in actuality most people probably have seichel and don’t think this way. Just because everybody wears white shirts doesn’t mean that everybody thinks that those who don’t aren’t frum.
