Long Hair
The movies and commercials make long hair seem very sexy and flowy, but someone mentioned to me that shorter hair reveals your neck and could also be considered too sexy
I disagree with the neck notion; the neck is not considered ervah otherwise we would all have to wear turtlenecks to be modest. (age 21)
Maybe it isn’t ervah...but some men might find it attractive...
This is true, however women can’t be expected to tailor their dress to anything men may find attractive. The Rabbis set certain rules in place; if a man is attracted to a mouth that’s his problem, women don’t need to walk around wearing germ masks
So why did Rabbis choose these specific areas then? If men find butts attracted so what? Why can’t we wear tight skirts and leggings that reveal our butts? Or can we?
I personally think that if we wear our “tznius”clothes so tight that everything can be seen it defeats the point. So I would say no, we can’t. And that’s a good question though, why do elbows have to be covered as opposed to a neck... I’m not sure. If anyone knows, please let me know.
