A woman's place is in the home, away from strange men she may arouse in the marketplace, claims a new haredi modesty booklet.
Ma'ariv reports that the booklet urges haredi women to stay at home.
They should chose to pay bills on the phone using credit cards rather than go to payment centers to pay in person, even if this costs more to do.
The should have items delivered whenever possible. Classes and studies can be done through phone-lines and CDs.
And if they do have to go outside, they should think carefully about how they look and how they smell. In fact, women should not use good-smelling shampoo, the booklet says, and they should not shampoo or use sweet-smelling soap before going outside so they don't cause men to sin.
