Theyre black and white and from the earlier 1900's but theyre still there and its in several pictures so I dont believe its an oversight

Am I supposed to be shocked by it? Supposed to be super excited? To me it's no big deal, sorry.

You think there's going to be an apology next week about it?

Even women dead for years with an extremely unclear grainy black and white photo?

Who is behind this psak? Never heard of it.

Black and white pictures of women from the 1900s!!?!!?!?
This is shocking, horrendous, and completely inexcusable. I am going to write a very angry letter to the editor.

Thanks for warning me. I will have to throw it out before my husband can see it.

Im actually surprised. Yes this is long overdue etc etc and this shouldnt be a big deal but...the fact that they have never done this before b'shittah, and now they did, automatically makes it a big deal

I do know they will get flak for it
They got so much flak for when several years ago there was an outline / sketch on the cover of the magazine of Hillary Clinton

Remember, slippery slope.... I mean today it's an old grainy black and white photo, tomorrow its who knows? Full scale [filth]? Better not to start. /s

I really hope the ones criticizing it here are sarcastic. Baruch hashem they're including them! In this day and age if someone wants to sin with their eyes they don't do it with frum magazines.

They have actually said on record that there is no psak. It was a business decision.

I think it's great. If they do it a few more times such that it's clearly an ongoing change in policy, I'll subscribe.

This is most definitely not the first time. The beautiful article about the women from Telz that ran around YK time also had a bunch of pictures of women. I loved that I could see pictures of the women I was reading about.

I think they've said they would try to include pictures slowly and test the waters. There have been pictures of women outlines/shadows.

Correct. Eli Paley stated this clearly in a podcast. In fact when they asked Rabbanim about posting Hillary Clinton's photo, the Rabbanim responded with where did you ever get this psak that its assur?

Actually I believe last week's magazine had a woman in an ad. It was an Israeli ad, so maybe it only ran in Israel.

I found my magazine stuffed in my son’s garbage can. I’m very upset about it and my husband wants to cancel the subscription.

Did your husband convert to radical Islam?
