    I’d say just get a job, and then tell them you’re shomer shabbos after you’re hired.

    I don’t know if they’ll actually be able to accommodate you, though.

    Yes, but because she was so powerful and was a woman, she was very machmir on anti-feminism to avoid becoming an icon.

    Maybe there was a feminist movement and she was reacting against it?

    I don’t do rashi.

    It’s an insult to Rashi’s depth to run though it at a million miles an hour and not give it the attention it deserves.

    So, about those iron walls.

    Why is 20 amos more of a generic rule than non iron walls?

    DY: Your post does not make one word of sense. Isn’t it obvious that the person who made the garbage should take it out?

    The same way the person who made the kids changes the diapers and feeds them?

    Cool!

    Tonight, I also communicated: You made the garbage, you take it out.

    Then I appreciated: Thanks for peeling those potatoes into the garbage.

    It’s because I wanted to spend time together rather than take out the garbage.

    I didn’t call anyone ugly, and I think you are correct that it is a subjective term. But that doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.

    I thought it was referring to a shin daled “shade”. And if it is 20 amos high, then the shin daled can hide in the walls.

    Hand holding is not necessarily romantic. Men shake hands all the time.

    Kissing is not necessarily romantic. People do CPR on strangers all the time.

    There are plenty of ways to measure ugliness in an objective fashion.

    BMI, straightness of teeth, smoothness of face, relative size of nose, etc, etc, etc.

    But that isn’t the point. Is the dictionary wrong on anything which can’t be measured through objective criteria? Would you say there is no bad tasting food, only distasteful people? Just because you can’t objectively measure whether it tastes bad means the dictionary definition is incorrect and you can substitute anyone you want?

    Are there also no short people? Only people who have small minds are short. So the answer is no. Short people are those who have no yiras shamayim.

    And no poor people. Only those who have poor manners are poor.

    And no sick people. Only those who have sick minds are sick.

    And no stupid people. Only those who have stupid character are stupid.

    And no dictionary meanings. Only those that sound cliche are dictionary.

    Why should the eidei yichud need to know, unless they happen to find the kid hiding in the room?

    But I’ve been at plenty of weddings, and I’ve never seen the eidim actually search well enough to find a kid hiding under the tablecloth.

    Actually, I think I’ve heard chassidim and perhaps others have a minhag to davka hold hands back from the chuppa to show that it wasn’t a chuppas nidda.

    no ketchup.

    Yes olive oil. Yes garlic. Yes canned tomatoes. Yes olives. Yes mushrooms. Yes red onions. Yes rosemary. Yes thyme. Yes salt. Yes pepper. Yes flour. Yes red wine.

    That’s actually all the ingredients. It’s easy.

    Simply saute 6 cloves of garlic in olive oil. Add a can of whole tomatoes. Add salt and pepper. Simmer until liquid is gone. Smush tomatoes and add more olive oil. Simmer until oil turns red. Reserve.

    Saute olives, mushrooms, red onion, rosemary in olive oil. Add thyme. Reserve.

    Coat chicken in flour. Put skin side down in frying pan until it crisps.

    Combine all ingredients in dutch oven. Simmer for 15 minutes. Eat.

    It’s ok. I had your version also. But I added cheerios and milk. And instead of orange sauce I had an orange. But instead of the orange, I had some chocolate pudding.

    I could certainly hear very good reasons why it is less appropriate to kiss in public than to smile and giggle at each other.

    And of course there is a difference between what is appropriate to do in public and what is appropriate to do in your own home in front of your children. Why wouldn’t there be?

    I certainly did. Care and respect are feelings you can and should have for anyone. But you should not have be romantic with anyone except your wife.

    So yes, I reject care and respect as being insufficient. You should be a good role model for your kids in the subject of loving your spouse as well. You don’t want your kids to grow up and get married and think that it is enough for them to have a relationship with their spouse like a friend.

    I’m a little confused that you don’t imagine there are ways to be romantic without touching. That isn’t what romance means. Romance is the feelings you have for one another. Romance is what shlomo describes in shir hashirim.

    And this is why girls don’t learn gemara.

    You want to save this lady’s life, yes? So what’s the easiest way to save it?

    Which is easier? Not stealing wallets, or washing your hands after gorging on lentils?

    I’m not recommending handholding. And if you don’t know any non-physical ways to be affectionate, you should see a therapist soon.

    As you are not advocating showing affection in a physical way, yet you say showing respect and caring does not suffice, I was merely wondering what, IYO, should be done to ensure that children see (which you feel is importnat) their parents mutual love

    Oh. Ok.

    I think there is a whole range between showing physical affection and showing respect and caring. There are plenty of ways to act romantic and affectionate to your spouse without hugging and kissing.
