<DIV><BR><BR>Why Don't Women Wear A Yarmulke?<BR><BR>There are two halachos of
covering one's head. The first is not to walk 4 amos with your head
uncovered. Whether this is a minhag or a Halacha is not the subject of
this Teshuva. However this was never intended for females and is not
practiced. <SPAN class=121180818-02052011><FONT face=Arial

show fear of heaven (especially if you say the reason then was because women
stayed home)</FONT></FONT></SPAN></DIV>
