"Do you think this is a man's business to tell this to my wife? I think people should be minding their own business".
(The following is the exact text from the letter)."It is forbidden according to everybody for a lady to wear a red garment. This is not a decision based on today's Rabbinical decisions (although that should be enough anyhow). It is a 'Psak' from the Gemarah explicitly referring to the color red as a forbidden garment.We would really appreciate if you could kindly conform to this Halacha. This note is not written to hurt or offend you & I sincerely apologize if it does (as you prob did not know this Halacha). We are just begging you kindly please don't be Machshil other people. Thank you very much."
