North Riverdale and South Yonkers are often considered to be part of the same community. There is a large Modern Orthodox community. There are people who are right wing YU as well.

Frum and MO aren't separate categories.

I'm frum and MO.

Thank you! And people say there's no MO bashing on this site. Shameful.

There is really no reason to read bashing where there isn’t any. She’s not saying mo isn’t frum she’s asking about mo and the other people that don’t fit in that category.

I don't think she's implying that frum isn't MO. I think she wants to know if there's an MO or JPF community in Yonkers.

I don’t identify as mo and I find the title jarring. I thought it was a typo. If its not it is offensive. Please change it.
You can ask , if and what type of orthodox communities are there in..

Then why not ask that? I imagine the op didn't mean to sound offensive, it's just that this kind of dismissive language is so common here that people don't even realize what they are implying.

This is what she's asking. If there's an MO or Frum community in Yonkers. Some people look for bashing in every thread just so they can yell that they're being bashed.

Or some people just feel bashed and it’s not because they are actually being bashed.

Which is implying that MO is not frum.

That is bashing.

Imagine the title "is there a yeshivish or frum community in Yonkers"?

Or

"Is there a chadidish or frum community in Yonkers?"

It does not imply that MO is not frum. It implies that she wants to know if there are frum families that aren't MO, that don't fit into the MO box. That are jpf.

And I would read it as all the people that are not that community. Not that they aren’t frum. You are trying too hard to find bashing. Sometimes we have a complex and therefore we read everything a certain way.

And sometimes people show their biases in the way that they write.

I mean are you frum or chassidish?

Are you frum or yeshivish?

So I'd read this are you chassidish/Yeshivish or not, and not that chassidish/Yeshivish isn't frum.
Some people think that everyone is bashing and everyone is out to get them.

Maybe because there is a long history on this site of women writing that MO aren't frum.
