The paper has responded, saying they just shouldn't have printed the photo at all. And that, as a rule, never print any photos of women...which does not indicate any lower status for women.

Of course, as absurd as that sounds, in their minds it's true, because the whole mindset behind the separation of men and women in orthodox judaism is that men are incapable of not being distracted by women, so, to be sure that men can continue to operate at peek efficiency, they need to be protected from exposure to women at all costs.

Yes, I'm serious.

Of course, while they are busy thinking that they're not denigrating women because, really, it's a commentary on how fallible men are, they are missing the fact that it rather does denigrate women since it says that everything must be structured around making sure that MEN are able to work without distraction, lest society fall apart. Because clearly without clear-headed men, society couldn't possibly operate.
