When we want to discuss about tallit for women there are certain points that are bound to come into consideration. According to Judaism, women are not obligated to wear a “Tallit”. A reason behind this can be that they are exempt from fulfilling most of the time-bound positive commandments such as reciting the Shema which is supposed to be done morning and night, or even taking the Four Kinds on the holiday of Sukkot). However, a lot of women do fulfill a lot of these mitzvot if they so desire. In current days, a lot of women are opting for wearing tallit and it is now considered as more than just a prayer shawl. In this post, I will be listing a few other facts about this discussion that are important to know. So, let’s take a closer look at the facts now, on the meaning of Tallit for Women.

 Tallit For Women - A Few Facts About The Custom And Practices!
In spite of the current trend, a lot of women do not wear tallitot. A number of these reasons for this reticence can be found in Halachic works. Let’s take a look at them.

• Both women and men are actually Biblically forbidden to wear clothing normally associated with the other gender. Like for instance, men may not wear skirts. Now, as tallit is traditionally a male garment, for a woman, wearing that will actually be considered as a violation of this statute.

• Another fact is that although women observe a number of time-bound mitzvotal though they are not obligated to do so. This is an admirable practice for which they are genuinely rewarded. But a Tallit is different since there is no obligation whatsoever to wear a tallit—even for a man. Rather, in events, the man wears a four-cornered garment and must also attach fringes to its corners. As the man is not obligated to seek out such a garment, women who are actually exempt from this practice in the first place, do not wear them at all.

• Now, a woman who fulfills this mitzvah which she is not obligated to do so and is not performed by the majority of her gender actually draws undue attention to her excessive piety in an inappropriately ostentatious manner. This was definitely a reason to ponder upon especially from the orthodox point-of-view.

• Lastly, on the mystical level, the inner workings of this mitzvah are actually male oriented and they just don't "do it" for a woman.

Tallit is also known as a Jewish prayer shawl is sometimes received at a milestone moment in all adult Jewish lives. At bar mitzvahs as well as bat mitzvahs, most of the families choose to give their children a tallit. They wear tallit for the first time as they lead a congregation in prayers as well as learning. Bar mitzvah tallit is a Jewish coming of age ritual for boys. A girl becomes a bat mitzvah at the age of 12 in accordance with the Orthodox and Conservative Jews, and at the age of 13 according to Reform Jews. Prior to reaching bar mitzvah age, one’s parents hold the rights and responsibilities for the child’s actions.

This process of selecting a tallit, either bar mitzvah tallit or a bat mitzvah tallit can be emotional, but in the middle of planning for a family event, it can sometimes be put off until the last minute.

Whether you and your children are seeking the process of selecting the perfect bar mitzvah tallitot a little difficult, here are four tips which will help you make the process a little easier.

Try it on for Size

Normally, Tallitot are offered in two sizes. A traditional tallit and a shawl size tallit. Generally, a shawl is made using less material and worn with four corners hanging before the person wearing it. Some tallitot are larger and are typically worn draped up as well as folded over one’s shoulders. The traditional styles are prevalent in prayer leaders. The shawl styles that are smaller allow you for more movement. So if you are one of the persons who like dancing while praying this smaller might be the size for you. 

Be True to Yourself

Though, these types of Tallitot are not new but can carry a story of family history and the importance of one’s own Jewish identity. You can also get a connection in a new tallit. Therefore, choose a certain colour or pattern that may bring to mind a memory which boosts your personality, and the approach to your life.
