Or she can remain close to the traditional community.
But who fits perfectly into one community or the other?
Avigayil shares:
I overlapped between communities.
Meaning that I fit in nowhere. I was too feminist for Chabad communities
and schools, and too Chabad for the feminists communities and schools.
I was left with no community, without friendships and the guidance of women,
and without a teacher. Not close with any families,
and unable to find a shidduch (which perpetuated the isolation).
