“Look this thread is silly (not that I don’t love silly threads) nobody is coming to YWN to look for advice on this and nobody is changing their behavior based on a comment on YWN.”
I agree that nobody is going to run a big life decision by the YWN CR, but whether you like it or not, forums come up pretty quickly when googling any Jewish community related question/topic. The Five Towns have enjoyed an unfairly positive image on the internet as a whole, which is misleading. Anything that can be done to correct that should be done.
