Here in London the Labour Govt many years back 'integrated' men and women in hospital wards. Now the Conservative Govt has completed the commitment to segregate all wards for either men or women. The impetus for going back to separate wards came mainly from female patients. The loony Left Israelis who fight anyone's right to possibly separate men and women would get short shrift over here, where common sense prevails.

Common sense teaches us that Adam and Eve were equals.... And naked!

I am sorry to tell you but men and women are not equal. Unless males can have babies.... hmmmm

All I can say is that the |Haridi are taking this non Torah requirement to ridiculous extremes.

That way you can go back to telling yourself and everyone else how bad they are. Or maybe you'd prefer there simply be no haredim.

They can't be near a woman even for lifesaving blood donations. I certainly hope they recognize the source of female "contamination" is their menstrual blood, the very same blood that could be transfused into themselves. What a shanda to permanently defile a tzadik's insides with a woman!

That s not terrific.

Strange that every ultra or loony group OF WHATEVER faith / cult.... Have a weird attitude to women. Some men must fear women because they cannot control their own sexual impulses. Love God ... Then start respecting women as equals. This planet is nuts.

During the 1973 War, there were large numbers of Haredim walking miles on Yom Tov to reach the blood donor centre here in London. I don't recall it being 'segregated'. When the need arose we werte there.
