I found this picture in an Israeli haredi forum and it actually describes this extraordinary kind of bicycle for the whole family. Well, I thought, that's nice but then I noticed the two white spots in the middle of the photo. I looked closer and realized that there were two females sitting on the bike and due to modesty reasons, the Haredim had cut out their faces.
Photos of women are not allowed in haredi society, as it is immodest and may cause the guys to think of something, well, "immodest" ?
It may give the impression that I am entirely dealing with the modesty issue in my blog but I am actually not. However, these topics and especially this picture with the white spots make me jump.
