Women's Language

B"H

After all my criticism and further reports about haredi society, I am (finally) saying something POSITIVE. Not exactly "finally", as I do write about a lot about the positive sides of Orthodoxy, and especially haredi Judaism. Some people may not see it but I do feel that way.

But here something extremely positive concerning many many haredi women. Especially those from the girl's school "Beit Yaakov" but also from further haredi schools and upbringings. What I very much admire is the fine language of many Israeli Haredyiot (haredi women). I don't mean expressions like "Baruch HaShem" in every sentence; no, I mean a good choice of words and also the tone of the sentences. This is making a great impression on me and I think that one has to be born and grown up that way. The "fine" language doesn't sound artificial at all but those women mean what they say.

As soon as I am talking to such women, I do change my language immediately. I don't think that I am having a bad language but I wish I had their style. Maybe I admire them talking because I hate bad language and curses. I didn't grow up this way, and although I sometimes do use "bad" words, I still prefer being with people limiting their bad language or those not even using it.
