What did the ad say?
golfer: Until recently, no one – including the goyim – disagreed that a wife must obey her husband. It was only beginning in the 1900’s, after the advent of feminism that it was ever disputed. Before 100 years ago, if anyone argued that a wife doesn’t need to obey her husband, he would have been looked at as missing some marbles. There was never before a misconception that men and women are “equal”. That is a new idea that secular society has been trying to drill into everyone for almost 100 years now.
Sam: What she is describing above constitutes dancing.
Feif Un: That was only at the Tendlers wedding (and at the Choson’s wish, not Rav Moshe’s.) At Rav Dovid and Rav Reuven’s chasunas there was seperate seating only.
They should stress this point in Beis Yaakovs and in Kallah classes. The girls aren’t sufficiently aware of this halacha.
That’s what happens with women. Can’t win.
Oomis: That comment of yours is hardly a halachic justification to allow men to watch women dance or to allow women to dance in front of men.
What are Mesifta and Oz Vehodor Gemoras?
I thought everyone has a seperate set of cups for milichegs and fleishigs.
By calling it the 2000s, it is difficult to differentiate whether you are referring to the decade or to the century.
When referring to the 1800s or to the 1700s people are generally referring to the century, not just the first decade.
Marbe: If you want more days, you can start paying more tuition to increase the teacher’s salaries.
Besides, Yeshivas start earlier than 9/15 and end later than 6/15 as it is.
Some people wear a white shtreimel. Especially in Yerushalayim.
Everyone should follow their Daas Torah. If their rabbonim permit the wives to drive, then it is okay for them to drive. If their rabbonim do not permit the women to drive, then they should not drive.
Everyone ought to respect each other’s rabbonim. Live and let live.
Whiteberry: I explicitly wrote above that a wife must listen to and fulfil her husband’s requests prior to her parents. (The husband, otoh, must put his parents requests before his wife, as I wrote earlier.)
Whiteberry: My point is if the mother gives her instructions with the intention for it to be a binding request, it must be followed.
scienceprogram: My above comments were simply reminding what the Torah tells us the Halacha is.
mw13: It isn’t l”h because that isn’t a bad thing. The same thing as if he would’ve said that Ner Yisroel’s basketball gym is in poor condition. Big deal.
(P.S. I have no idea if N”Y even has a gym.)
Abcd: Wrong. The biggest increase in cost will not be electricity or utilities. It will be the increased wages to the teachers who will be asked to stay longer hours. That will have to be paid for by the parents.
If the teachers don’t get paid extra for the extra hours (5% more hours per year is a 5% increase in salary to ALL affected teachers and other school employees needed during those additional hours and/or days), by the school increasing parental tuition to FULLY cover the additional wages and utilities, it will never happen.
Period.
The mother instructed about the shoes; she didn’t merely offer a refusable “suggestion”.
And if not, imagine a case where the mother insists about the shoes.
The Halacha m’doraisa befairush in the Torah (Aseres Hadibros) is in effect.
Parents are the ones who need to teach how to be a mentch. Blame the parents not the school.
Where do you get your halachas from, apushatayid, excluding certain actions you don’t like from Kibud Eim?
abcd: Extending school hours DOES cost yeshivas money.
Kibud Av V’Eim generally require following parents requests. For example if a parent asks to bring her something, you must do so.
miritchika: Law clerks, law professors and dental assistants are NOT paid per session. They are salaried.
Get drunk at the simcha.
Law clerks, law professors and dental assistants are neither self-employed nor are they paid per diem.
What is the relationship between the brochos of shelo asani goy, isha and eved?
It’s a befeirush Halacha that a husband must fulfil his parents request before he fulfils he wife’s request. (For the wife, the Halacha is she must fulfil her husband’s request before fulfilling her parent’s request.)
What are the frum German Yidden, who are not Yekkes, called?
Twisted: Chazal discontinued that method for very good reason.
WIY:
What “meaning” is a shtreimel supposed to have (if worn with the proper kavana)???
Optomotrists, dental assistants, law clerks, law professors, and therapists work on average less than 40 hours a week and have a very nice amount of off days. I think there ought to be a law forcing these workers to work longer and have less off-days! And for no more pay than they are already getting!
Where is the outrage here against these thuggish optomotrists, law professors, law clerks, therapists, etc. by all the big-mouths outraged only against yeshivas, rebbeim and morahs???
Chasidim follow the ARIZAL’s minhagim, that the ARI HaKodesh instituted.
The bottom line is:
You will NOT get any more school days and you will not get any more hours per school day, until and unless:
1) Tuition is raised a commensurate amount to the number of additional hours and days you are seeking
and
2) Rebbeim, Morahs, and teachers salaries are raised a commensurate amount of money to the addional hours and off-days you seek to add.
Without both these conditions stringently applied across the board, you cannot and never will get the change you seek. Complaining that tuition is too unbearably high and cannot go higher may (or may not) be true. But even if it is true, without an equivelent increase of tuition — for everyone including those who cannot afford it — you simply will NOT get more school hours.
P.S. Girl schools have no Sunday hours, so you cannot do a trade-off between Sunday and Friday. And if you do it for boys schools, you’ll end up with your boys and girls having different school schedules on Friday.
Moshiach came.
I think marriages are pretty good, with room for improvement.
Vayishkuchaeihu –
Veleche Yid Shpilt Kvitlech Chanukah Hist Vinter
Anyone know where in the Torah that’s found?
In Yiddish, as spoken by the vast majority (if not all) of Yiddish-speaking Yidden, it is Vinter.
Ah gitten vinter.
It’s a Far Rockaway thing.
Borderline apikorsus. (Not quite, perhaps, but really close.)
So how do you hold your machzir?
Many guys are just the quiet type. Peaceful silence, while being together, is exactly what makes us tick.
Salon is baal tashchis. Don’t let her do it.
You’re good. Hatzlacha
Any parent not paying the full sticker-price for tuition has no standing to complain.
Whiteberry: Girls with those kind of smarts, cajones and guts are the ones who often can’t get married. Since she B’H doesn’t have those middos you described, she is an eishes chayil rather than an old maid.
This gezeira is a Shaas Shmad and we must be willing and ready to fight it with our lives or anything else, if necessary. The fact that the reshoyim behind this shmad couch their words in excuses other than anti-Judaism is meaningless, as they are obviously embarassed that stating upfront their hatred of Torah Judaism will sink their attempts to uproot the Torah r’l.
Just as convinced you are that you are in the right and the other party wronged you, he may be equally convinced you are in the wrong and he doesn’t forgive you.
Who is to say you are right and he needs your forgiveness? Perhaps he is in the right and you, in fact, need his forgiveness.
I have bottles of wine (still used) that were originally opened years ago.
