Watch out, makeup artists! If this spreads around, it'll eat a chunk out of your revenue!! Somthing tells me this won't be very popular though. Girls don't like to look like hell on their wedding day and I for one don't blame them.
I don't think the funding for this is really big $$$ at this point, but if it gets larger, wouldn't you think of 1,001 better uses for this tzedakah money?
Arggghhhh..... The (potential) waste of $$$ continues.
Postscript - it looks like there's already a lively discussion on YWN about this. Wow, news travels fast in the Jewish world! Viva la Internet!! Viva la blogosphere!

I agree, pushing too much can cause problems. But that shouldn't be an excuse to not push at all for important things (not that I believe this is an important thing - put that's subject to debate).
ReplyDeleteLooks like there is already an avid discussion on "vus is neis" too. I am pleased to see that most people see how ridiculous this is, and disagree with the schools initiative. At least we all have'nt lost our minds.
ReplyDeleteOn the other hand, I think maybe wearing a thick veil for the entire wedding is an even better idea. That way, even if the kallah is naturally beautiful, it will prevent all males present from a burning desire to steal her from her new husband. Of course, its not the mans fault; he was just genetically engineered that way. Its up to us strong females to prevent him from straying off the right path.
