How good to learn from so substantial explanations to intelligent question from friend Joshua. I confess that I had questions about it. I heard various opinions, but without the basis in the Torah.
Taking advantage of this, I ask ...
Staying home alone, or with my parents (father and mother) only, is it permissible to be shirtless? Could I justify because of the temperature in the country where I live, which is around 40/50° Celsius?
Thank you very much.
For a man it is not forbidden, but it will be meritorious if you can have certain times when you will decide to observe a higher level of modesty (such as wearing a T-shirt) in your awareness of G-d's Presence. For example, when you are praying or reading Torah.
