Is this a typo, or does "greasy" mean something other than "covered with or resembling an oily substance?"


It's not a typo. It's a horrible slang term for a super yeshivish person.

My husband has many friends in Israel but he has veered more to the right and they to the left over time ... most of his friends align somewhere within the DL to Chardal crowd.

He has friends in RBS but I don't feel that it's where we would quite fit.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but there really is still no JPF community in Israel for the typical American Frum family as of yet.

We watch YouTube and the like, but it's definitely not a focus.

English and secular studies are important to me .

We definitely align with a strong Torah community.

Why not? Everything you describe is exactly what rbs is for so many.

Agreed, when I read OPs post I literally thought “classic RBS” 😂
Especially as more Olim are moving there, there is more room for the more chilled out American, open minded, Charedi type which isn’t really a thing with Israeli Charedim, which tends to be more close minded.
I’m not from the Charedi world so it could be I’m totally off but that is my impression

Agree about RBS - especially RBS gimmel. Such great and similar minded people who live there. You can also land there and figure it out after a year or two.

OP you’re now charedi lite. We were when we came, now we’re more chardal and I’d love to move to a different community. Who you are now is colored by chu”l you may change when you come and join a new culture and environment.
