01:07 pm: Okay, Do You Believe Me Now?

I know people didn't believe me about the Craiglist's ads asking for frum men for orgies.

Well, here's Shaindy.com, a very specific website catering to "mostly frum married couples, who are looking for some excitement outside of their marriage. Some play solo, some play as a couple!" The site has 760 members whose profiles you can browse without registering. A nice chunk of these self-identify as chassidim.

Now listen up all you Rabbis and Mishmeret Hatznius People and Nosy Busybodies. Listen and listen well.

*I don't want to hear anything about  how my yiras shomayim  depends on when and where I choose to wear pants.

*I don't want to hear anything about  how the kashrus of my home depends on when and where I choose to cover my hair.

*I don't want to hear anything about why I shouldn't wear a bathing suit to the beach.

*I don't want to hear about how my preschool girls should be wearing long sleeves and tights in the summer.

*I am not interested in your drashos on kol isha, shmiras einayim or kol kevuda bas melech penima.

*I couldn't care less as to why you think women shouldn't be rabbis or cantors or lein from the Torah because it is so immodest.

*I don't give a crap whether you think I shouldn't have Newsweek or Time in my home because there may be an advertisement which features a non-tznius-dressed lady.

I don't want to hear about anything related even tangentially to tznius laws  until you all face up to the bigger problems in the frum community and deal with them.  All you judgmental people need to stop looking at my slits and necklines and elbows because your idiocy is beyond painful. After you fix the bigger issues, like say,  the growing market for extramarital services for the frum couple, then you can worry about  whether my pantyhose is thick enough. Until then, stick it where the sun don't shine.

Thank you.


P.S. Daas Hedyot asked me to mention his new series in which he introduces you to normal and sane people who have successful lives after leaving Orthodoxy. Can't imagine why anyone would want to leave orthodoxy, though. 
 
P.P.S- the site keeps getting hacked into, try again in a few days if you can't access it now.

11:41 pm: Ooh, let's ban immodest bicyclists.

This post is dedicated to all my good friends who think that what you wear or what you eat is a good indicator of yiras shomayim.


So here is one story about some problems some Chassidim are having.

And here is another story about some problems some Chassidim are having.


Yes, as you might guess, I have my own theories on how these two stories are connected. But go ahead, I am open to hearing what you think. Do you really believe that these stories are completely coincidental? If not, how would you describe the relationship between the two situations?
