פרישה יורה דעה סימן קפב
(ה) אבל במקום שמעבירין השער האנשים. נראה דרצה לומר אנשים גוים דכיון דנהוג
נהוג ולמדינן ממנהג הגוים גם יש לומר דעל ישראל קאמר דהיכי דהנהיגו כן כולם
יחד אין מוחין בידם:
------------------------------
“However, in a place where men remove hair it appears that he means
non-Jewish men, since once it is the established practice, it is considered
established, and we even derive from the practices of non-Jews.
It is also possible to say that he is referring to Jews, that in a place
where they have all instituted this practice together, we do not protest
against them.”
------------------------------
Any ideas on where (halachically) these alternatives (Jees vs Non-Jewscome
from? Psychologically? Do they apply to other issurim?
