[Avodah] women lighting candles

[Rich, Joel]

Indeed.  I got a similar look when suggesting to a woman that in her
husband's absence, as baalat habayit, it was more appropriate for her to
say hamotzi for everyone than it was for a male guest to do so.
This may be what the men's SA says, but not the women's SA.

======================
Interesting. I had a similar experience when we were invited as a family
to the home of a female divorced neighbor.  However, she requested I
make hamotzi anyway since the other guests might think it was some
feminist thing for her to do so and did not want to get into a
discussion of her halchik vs. hashkafic  motivation.
