i dont think black and white makes you yeshivish i think it all depends on a persons penimious
Impossible. If he isn’t wearing a white shirt, he is not yeshivish. It doesn’t matter what he learns, how he behaves, who his friends are, how he respects people. So long as he can schmeff, and wears black and white, he is yeshivish.
Disclaimer: Sarcasm
Yeshivish is the “lvush.” A person’s pnimious would determine how frum they are. The two dont always go together. The yeshivish person can go around wearing black and white and be yeshivish even though when he goes on vacation he doesnt act so frum yet he still looks yeshivish…Frum is the person’s inside, how the person acts in things bein adam lamakom middos,davening,yiras shamayim etc. he may not look so yeshivish but can be a way better person.
Being yeshivish is not a penimiousdik matzav. That being said, wearing black and white does not automatically make you yeshivish.
Simple. If you are affiliated with a yeshiva (past or present), and adhere to the tenets of the yeshiva, you are yeshivish.
Wash Heights has a yeshiva; Brooklyn has a yeshiva (several, in fact).
So, both grads (or students) are by deifnition, yeshivish.
Next question?
Yeshivish is whatever you are if you want to be Yeshivish, and whatever you aren’t if you don’t want to be Yeshivish.(In other words it’s an arbitrary, subjective gray area, that is defined differently by nearly everyone.)
if your capel does not have a rim you are not 100% yeshivish
The question is not, what, but who.
As per the saintly Rav Meir Shapiro ZTKLLH’H:- Every tractate without exception is a Yeshivish Messechto, hence the need for his inspirational & ingenious Daf Yomi brainwave, so no Messachto gets mislabeled as being more Yeshivish than another Messechto.
