NY Daily News - Black fashion student says Hasidic men attacked him, shouted anti-gay slurs in Williamsburg
10 december 2013 - A black fashion student says he was brutally attacked by a gang of Hasidic men who shouted anti-gay slurs at him while he was walking through Williamsburg after a night of partying, the Daily News has learned. Taj Patterson, 22, was headed home to Fort Greene around 4:30 a.m. on Dec. 1 when he says more than a dozen ultra-Orthodox Jewish men began assaulting him on Flushing Ave. and yelling, “Stay down, f----t!”


Nog :

Volgens de joodse traditie bepaalt het karakter het individu, niet de kleren. Als iedereen in een gemeenschap dezelfde kleren draagt, kan je enkel opvallen door je karakter. Je kleren moeten dus niet uniek zijn, maar je persoonlijkheid wel. Op die manier kan je je niet verschuilen achter je kleren.

Ultra-Orthodox Brooklyn...

Huffington Post - Being Queer and Jewish in Ultra-Orthodox Brooklyn
3 oktober 2013 - "You might get eggs thrown at you," she said. "I think I heard about that happening before." Her concerns were not without warrant. Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, the last Hasidic leader of the Chabad Lubavitcher movement, generally acknowledged the existence of same-sex attraction but still considered the idea of the homosexual act an abomination, urging his gay followers to seek heterosexual marriages or celibacy. While sympathy and empathy toward homosexuality exist within the Hasidic nexus of Crown Heights, the mere act of touching my then-girlfriend affectionately in public, let alone kissing her, could attract trouble.

Dat kleren karakter niet bepalen is een argument van stijllozen.

Meer over de mode...

You can wear other colors and not be in violation of tznius. Of course, some groups are against bright red, but other colors are free game. Those groups likely do follow the idea that tznius means avoiding standing out, so day-glo colors and neon colors would be frowned upon, as would any other way of dressing that "stands out."

This limitation on colors is what's called a chumrah, not halacha. Of course, there will always be people who say that X chumrah is "straight up halacha." The halacha of tznius is quite minimal, but the chumrahs and customs have become pretty extensive. Most orthodox groups allow you to express your personality through your clothing so long as you are appropriately covered.

That said, black, white, and blue are predominant colors in tznius communities simply because a) they're flattering and b) tznius clothes are generally made for an "older" consumer (rather than the Jewish community), and elderly consumers tend to dress conservatively. Even I, the queen of color, own a ridiculous amount of black clothing because it's very flattering. And that's what's available in the stores.

But yes, there are orthodox groups that have very strict standards on both what clothing and what colors can be worn in order to be accepted by that community. However, 95% or more of American conversion candidates will not end up in these groups.
