One might ask, what about the inappropriate thoughts that might be generated in a Chasid not used to seeing such a picture? My answer to that is they have to be brought into the 21st century. Kicking and screaming if necessary. They must be disabused of the notion that a fully dressed woman who is modest by the strictest of religious Jewish standards will cause their men to have improper thoughts.
We cannot allow the reverse to happen – to eliminate women so completely from the public square that a mere picture of Sara Schneirer will cause a man to sin. Because that is not Judaism. Never was. And never should be. And we ought to do everything in our power to not let that ever happen. Because that is not the world I want my granddaughters to inherit.
