Women's naked voices

This morning I received this brilliant video exploring the issue of 'Kol Isha Erva' - The voice of a woman is nakedness, and the ways it's being interpreted and applied to women's lives in public Jewish life in South Africa.
The women brilliantly explain what we all know to be true; two Jews = three opinions - there has never been one of being Jewish or of understanding Jewish law. This isn't a strange progressive innovation, but is just how the Talmud and Jewish law have been built; on debate and constant re-interpretation.
Now women's voices are being added to that conversation, and hopefully, they won't be silenced.
