[Avodah] Taliban Women and More

[Zev Sero]

In this article he claims (in footnote 7) that the charedi press's
"prohibition" on  women's pictures has a basis, and R Yosef Hayim
"writes quite strongly against women’s pictures, because men will
come to look at them".  He reproduces a page from _Rav Berachot_
in support of this claim, but if you go through the page you find
that it doesn't even mention this subject, let alone "write strongly"
against them, or give a reason.

                  may be. The stocks of them are not fixed but rather
		 are expanding through human ingenuity."
