I know of a young lady (I will call her Leah) in her late 20s, unmarried, who is ostensibly "frum". Leah is from a charedi home. She is shomeres Shabbos, keeps kosher, dresses modestly. She won't even drink unsupervised milk, which is the norm in the Charedi community in England.<BR>
<BR>
Leah is also having a relationship with a non-Jewish man and going to mikveh. I would prefer not to elaborate as to the circumstances in order to avoid identification. I will say that she is publicising her conduct in her workplace, much to the embarrassment of other Jewish employees. I strongly surmise, based on other facts, that she is doing this in order to have a baby.<BR>
<BR>
There is no doubt much that could be said about Leah's mindset and our recommended response to it on Areivim, but I have question for Avodah: Is there any point at all in her going to mikveh? Is there an issur of niddah in such a case?<BR>
