According to Ma’ariv/NRG (here for those of you who can read Hebrew on their computers), a new monthly disco has opened in Ramat Bet Shemesh – for religious women.
Says Na’ama Meir, “We wait for these disco nights each months, it’s an amazing way to unburden, amazing fun. We get women who look as square as can be, with head coverings to their eyebrows, letting loose and going wild. I’ve already found myself a permanent dancing partner.”
Organizer Miri Shalem says that the women-only events are beginning to appeal to “Haredi lite” women as well.
Sounds like a great idea -- but do they dance to the sounds of Eminem? Inquiring minds want to know.
(A few months ago I heard of similar events taking place in Jerusalem on Emek Refaim St., which I really wanted to write about, but couldn’t track down. Anyone?)
