"A girl should study to be a housewife" Rabbi Avigdor Miller

 


Q: Should a girl who is studying to be a lawyer practice in crimi- nal court and get the experience she needs by defending criminals?

A: I want to start this question a little earlier. Should a girl study to be a lawyer altogether? 

No! A girl should study to be a housewife! It’s a tragedy when girls go for a career.

Now, I know that the girl who asked the question is right here, but listen to me. People have to know what’s good for their future, what’s good for their happiness. If a woman is independent and she has her own career, she’s a misfit in her home.

A woman has to be only a house- wife and nothing more. It’s of the utmost importance to realize that a

man has to make a living, but a woman has to create a future generation. And in case she cannot, she has to build a home anyhow. And building a home is a full time job. It’s a master piece when the wise woman learns how to create a true Jewish home. And it needs all of her talents.

And therefore, isn’t it a waste? 

You can get a bum, to be a criminal lawyer – which they are. Nobody should be a criminal lawyer! But to take a good Jewish girl and waste her neshama and waste her talents in standing in a gentile court and speaking about criminals, it’s a pity. It’s taking diamonds and using them instead of stones.

    1. You are a sick person. You don't have to agree with Rabbi Miller, but why resort to petty name calling?

    Before you call someone "sick" do some research on what this rabbi said about the 6 million Kidoshim that were murdered, you should also know that this rabbi was the one who translated the anti_israel ads for the Neturei Karta in the 1960's. This Rabbi was the only Young Israel Rabbi that Satmar was in love with, I wonder why?
