The Emmys is an event that is organized to credit, acknowledge and reward those who are the most talented in their fields. It is an evening that is intended to celebrate skill, capability, and creativity, and yet, in the end, it is just one big fashion show...

This is so wonderfully portrayed. I give S.E. Crispe a standing ovation!

Wow!! That was beautifully put! Beautifully worded! hit the point on the mark! This world is too vain, and thats why we Jews are here, to be a light unto the nations. Beauty lies within. Beautiful article

I thought that this essay was very good. It explained that what the women 20 years ago were fighting for e.g. equal pay and equal rights ect. is now just getting worse with immorality at its highest point, people don't seem to understand that when women wear short skirts or tight t-shirts it is degrading as we are effectively judging them externally and not really what counts which is the inside. My grandmother always tells me that it is so restricting and that it is hard for orthodox women to be pretty, but I tell her the opposite that it is hard for non orthodox women to be pretty with everyone judging them on the outside. and how they dress.

Fabulous article. We are all entrentched in a world full of facades. May we all start measuring and evaluating with true torah principles and not the ones we adopted from our society.

Thanks for giving me some inspiration this morning. Words well said and thought provoking.

Very well written! Good job!

This is lovely....
Sara Esther has spoken so beautifully, clearly, and intelligently on the subject. It ought to make us pause, and question, and look to our inner substance.

As with many other Orthodox Jewish women who reside in areas of the country/world where we are few and far between in number, I find I am viewed as somewhat an oddity in my manner of dress, especially in the warmer months, when a modest-dressing female sticks out like a sore thumb while others have donned shorts, tank tops, etc. It makes me proud that I have this wonderful feeling inside that all my physical attractivesness is reserved for the man to whom I am married...I haven't cheapened my worth by reducing myself to a common commodity on open display for the world to view...I only wish more women, especially Jewish women from all levels of observance, realized this is far more alluring to their husbands than anything else

sorry I missed the first time round on your Red Carpet loved the way you express what people seem to want to see, beautiful women,no one cares about what brains these woman have , it is the media and paparazi who put these woman in our faces, that is why so many girls want to be a size 10 and starve themselves.We can all look wonderful and be stars in someones eyes.

Wonderful. Well put.
I've lived my life seeing these magazines and commercials. Not to mention beauty contests (in school, on television, the local fair, etc.). I was never really fat but not exactly skinny. Always wanted to get down to a size 10 so I would fit in better. I got there. And then a size 8. And now 7 (almost 6). And the magazine people just get skinnier and better skin and....I keep telling myself just another 15 pounds (120 pounds and 5' 3" isn't unhealthy). Special scrubs for my skin. I'm sick of it. There is always "just another 5 pounds" or "just one more skirt size". I am smart. I can bake (recently had the suggestion that I should start a business). Know about many different topics. But I don't feel good enough because I don't look like them.
What a world we live in.
