Haredi press regularly "photoshops" women out of pictures. Even
important women doing important things.

Why do you think this is noteworthy? It's nothing new.

For the record, it's not about dissing the women but to prevent the men from
getting aroused. You may think this is silly, but it's not an anti-woman
thing.

Are Haredi men really that easily aroused?? (I'm assuming that the
women in question weren't photographed in swimsuits or negligee... )

When there is such strict gender segregation and women are so completely
covered up in public, perhaps photos of women's faces to the Haredi men
are something akin to photos of barely clad women to secular men.

Are Haredi men supposed to avoid looking at women's faces in general?
