2. I talk to g all the time as a chiloni. I know she listens.

3. "Haredi poses as woman" Liar! He's secular
(06.21.12)
posing as haredi woman
4. #3 is a Haredi lying to avoid truth... yet again
(06.21.12)
5. Women's Prayers
Danny ,   London England   (06.21.12)
He may be on psychiatric medication, but he is probably right that women's prayers are heard more than men's -- even if the men sit in the womnen's area! Women are considered to have purer souls and to be closer to G-d because they have the power to create new human life.
6. Reply to 2. She listens
Sherlock Holmes ,   London England   (06.21.12)
In Jewish tradition G-d has male and female dimensions, and it is the Shechina or female dimension that goes with us into Exile, so you are quite right.
7. I'm looking for this article all over the net and all I find
D.B.   (06.21.12)
is a report arresting one of the Women Off the Wall for wearing a talit.
8. The police arrested one of the Women Off the Wall today
(06.21.12)
for wearing a talit. Your article is not mentioned in any other website.
9. Queen at the Kotel?
Cheryl ,   Chicago, USA   (06.22.12)
It 'aint gonna work sista...I mean brotha....I mean...??????
10. 2 Michael "She listens" Good for you.
ORA ,   JERUSALEM   (06.22.12)
It can be even better,if at your turn next ,you listen to Her. Shabat Shalom,Michael.
11. #7 and #8
Shalom Hartman   (06.22.12)
Because only YNet would possibly describe such a story as newsworthy
12. @DB yep Rashi's daughter turned up again!
(06.22.12)
and if Rashi's daughter can get arrested for wearing a talit, tefillin and kippah well... I don't mind being arrested along with her! (and you D.B. are rather closed minded)
13. Ora , a man listening to a female voice ?
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (06.22.12)
14. #13 Charles. Women voices are sweet and peaceful. Listen.
Michael ,   California, USA   (06.22.12)
15. Article agenda is ...
Yoni the Jew ,   Jewish homeland   (06.22.12)
Leave it to ynetnews to take advantage of a mentally ill person and use it for their antireligious agenda. If it was any other mentally ill person who pretended to be a woman I am sure ynetnews would not have the chutzpah to talk derogatorily about it. Would it be news if he wasn't haredi??
16. #13 Charles Why don't you read the article before answering
Allan ,   PT   (06.22.12)
unless you have the same mentality. "A mentally-ill man" does not quite understand the difference between spray-painting pro-Palestinian graffiti and going to the women's section.
17. His smart ;-)
David ,   Israel   (06.22.12)
When a woman nags, they get answered faster then when a man does! The same can probably be said for praying. This man isn't mentally I'll his damn smart! :-)
18. # 2 I know she listens.
J.K. ,   Brooklyn USA   (06.22.12)
Does she respond ?.
19. # 14.women voices are sweet and peaceful
J.K. ,   Brooklyn USA   (06.22.12)
and...Godly.
20. To satisfy the God of equality,
J.K. ,   Brooklyn USA   (06.22.12)
a woman in pants,and a Talit over her head should enter the man's section at the Kotel,any volunteers ?.
21. Number 13. Women's voices
Danny ,   London England   (06.22.12)
Women praying tend not to be singing. It's more personal and private at the Kotel.
22. #13..Michael..not in my opinion...
Malone ,   Hfx   (06.22.12)
My ex-wifes voice was anything but sweet and peaceful.
23. 16 , allan why don't you understand anything ?
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (06.23.12)
Try , if you can , to read what , and to whom i wrote . But you described yourself very well : "a mentally very ill "man" "
24. Michael
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (06.23.12)
You certainly know that charidi men don't listen to female voices , and here we have a charidi woman telling you to do it ! Funny not ? Of course , female voices are mostly sweet .
25. Michael 14 .

before criticising . You know yourself very well , mentally ill .
27. Michael , 14
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (06.22.12)
You probably know that charidi men don't listen to female voices . Here we have a Charidi woman that tell's a guy to listen to such a voice . I was a little bit sarcastic . I agree , Women's voices are sweet , and i prefer female singers above males .

Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (06.22.12)

Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (06.23.12)
