Another jerk who in pure ignorance uses the Gemara to attack people wrongly. The Gemara (see the Ben Yehoyada and others ) refers to a person who over time is seen to behave in an extreme fashion - in the case of the ‘besulah’, it would refer to her daavening frequently at very great length and in a very ostentatious fashion (kneeling on the ground etc). No negative conclusions can be drawn from a single incident- and yet idiots like to criticise.

The Gemara (Sotah 22a) says בתולה צליינית is מבלי עולם.
