Tzniut literally translated means modesty.
It can refer to the character trait of humility but also to modest attire for
Jews and the behavior between opposite sexes. Tzniut is more than just about
dressing in a certain way. It teaches us humility and the insignificance of
physical appeal compared to emotional connection.
Women are required to dress in a respectful
manner as shown in the image below.
Woman should also avoid wearing provocative
colours. They should also wear a sheitle or another head covering.
This humility and modesty also refers to behavior.
Men and women must not touch each other until marriage for the same reason.
Jews are required to act conservatively and not provocatively.
