No Affection Displays In Public, Be Modest.

Shulchan Aruch says, you're not allowed to show your wife affection in public. You show your wife affection in public, it's a it's it's a sin from the Torah. Physical affection. Not to hug or kiss her in public. Private, do whatever you want. Privately, enjoy yourself. How do you sneer at it if it's outside? Okay, so if so if so if so so if a woman that's really really sneered and her husband that's also sneered, but they start making out in the middle of the show. No, no, you know, that's what I said. Shulchan Aruch, you're not even allowed If they're really religious, they're not even touching each other's hand. Why? Do you know why? Because the woman still hasn't gone to the mikveh and she still need that. He's not allowed to touch her anyway. But aside from that, aside from that, he's not allowed to show her affection in public. The whole the whole minhag of a husband and a wife, a bride and groom kissing under the uh the the wedding, that's a that's a minhag of the But even more so, even holding your wife's hand. You're never going to see a gedola doll. You're never going to see the the the uh you know, pictures of the Rambam with holding his wife. You're never going to see a picture of the Baba Sali or picture of a Rav Ovadia or picture of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, you know, giving his wife a hug or even his own mother a hug. Why?

They they uh Ephraim Goldberg from Boca Raton has pictures on his uh on his Facebook profile hugging strange women. He goes to Huh? Ephraim Goldberg is one of the top rabbis in Florida, apparently. But he's a and he's a heretic. But nonetheless, he hugs women that are not even his wife in public. He has pictures. He goes to you know, different meetings and he hugs women in public. Now, I'm allowed to say this because he's the one that published it. It's not lashon hara. He's the one Once something is already a public issue, it's not there's no need Point being is that you have to let people know what they're allowed what they're not allowed. And sometimes when we learn our Judaism from seeing people, it's very easy to be fooled, to think that it's allowed. So many times you're going to see Jewish religious Jewish people hugging their wife and kissing their wife in public because they think it's perfectly fine. But according to our Torah, according to our Shulchan Aruch, it's 100% forbidden.
