The Rema (ad loc.) comments even though women are exempt, if they want, they may rely upon the opinion of Tosfot (Kiddushin 31a) who would allow a woman to wear and make a bracha on Tzitzit. The Rema continues however, that women still should not do so, since it would appear arrogant and further that Tzitzit is not a personal obligation anyway. The Mishna Brurah (17:5) elaborates that although women may rely on Tosfot for [[Lulav]] and [[Sukkah]], Tzitzit are different since even men are not required from the Torah except if they wear a four cornered garment. Wearing Tzitzit has both a personal as well as an impersonal aspect of obligation to it, which makes the obligation one which allows for leniencies. It is a personal obligation in the sense that only if one wears the garment does one need to attach Tzitzit and not just when one owns a garment. It is not a personal obligation, since it is not required of one to go out and buy a four cornered garment just to perform the mitzvah. Therefore, since men do not really have to wear Tzitzit every day, women certainly should not do so, it appearing arrogant if they do. Lastly, there is a possible concern of violating Beged Ish as Targum Yonatan Ben Uziel raises on Devarim 22:5. The Levush (17:2) and Ben Ish Chai (Lech Lecha 3) use similar logic.</ref> | ||

#There are various opinions<ref>This range emanates from the | #There are various opinions<ref>This range emanates from the Gemara (Menachot 40b), where it is dictated that the garment needs to be the size for it to be able to cover the head and majority of a minor. There are different interpretations as to how old the minor to whom the gemara is referring is: The [[Chinuch]] (Shelach: 386) and Bach (Orach Chaim 16) say the reference is to a 6 or 7 year old, the Tur (Orach Chaim 16) says 9 years old, and the Radbaz (6, 2:106) explains it to be a 5 year old. There is additional ambiguity as to whether the majority requirement means that the garment needs to cover the head and then in addition a majority of the child’s body (Radbaz) or if it only needs to cover in total the majority of the child, head included ([[Chinuch]]). Meaning, the question between the Radbaz and Chinuch is whether it would be sufficient if it could cover the child’s head and another 30% to 40% of the rest of his body, or whether it needs to be able to cover the head and an additional 51% of his body</ref> as to how big the garment needs to be to qualify as a halachically bona fide garment, in order to be able to recite a bracha without needing to worry about the possibility of it being a bracha levatala (a bracha said in vein or wasted): | ||

*He offers two explanations disproving the Mishna Brurah's approach. First, if we take the Mishna Brurah’s understanding to its logical extreme, we cannot count any minute hole (there being many since the garment is woven) making it more difficult to reach the proper size requirements. Additionally, he says if every minute hole does not count, then it should be considered an interruption.

#Some Ashkenazim have the minhag to tuck their strings in and some leave them out.<ref>Mishna Brurah 8:26 was strongly against those who wear their Tzitzit in and says that by doing so you are disgracing mitzvot. He adds that if you received a gift from the king you would surely wear it outside to show it off to others. He also says that tucking them out fulfills the pasuk of "u'ritem oto". This is the psak of Shulchan Aruch Harav 8:18 and the Magen Avraham 8:13 based on the Tosafot [[Brachot]] 18a which allows for tucking them in on a dead person because they do no longer have to fulfill "u'ritem oto" if they cannot be seen. Magen Avraham says this implies that they should normally be out and to at least leave them untucked for the time that it takes to walk four [[amot]]. Aruch HaShulchan OC 8:17, 23:2 mentions that in many communities in eastern Europe they would tuck the strings in and he says that this was an incorrect practice. In Nefesh HaRav page 105 Rabbi Hershel Schachter says that some have the minhag to tuck the strings into their pockets or wrap it around the belt and this was the minhag of Rav Chaim Soloveitchik. Tzitz Eliezer 8:3 says that whatever you do is fine.
