Question:

For a girl riding a horse is it a problem that she might rip the Besulim?

Thank you very much!

Answer:

I heard of such an idea, however I don’t know anywhere that it says that it is an issue. There is an issue with a woman riding a horse, and that is bewcause of the body position that she has to be in while riding it, is not a tzniusdik position, but this would be for woman as well as girls.
