Counting women in prayer

2930 Hits
Amanda Borschel-Dan writes a comprehensive and honest report on the issue of counting women in Jewish prayer.
Here is how she quoted me:
“Not counting as a person standing before God is the deepest offense you can lodge at a person. You know, when some guy starts counting heads and you are standing right there, you literally do not exist. Your body. Your soul. Invisible,” said Jewish feminist writer and researcher Dr. Elana Sztokman, author of “The Men’s Section: Orthodox Jewish Men in an Egalitarian World.”
What do you think about that?
