not to me. And what meaning those traditions have without G-d? Igor, why did you break a glass at your wedding? Light the candles on Hanuka? Did brit for your sons?
Glass in the wedding - tradition, as a memory of ruined Temple Light candles - tradition, that came from what Jews believed to be a miracle Brit - tradition, hygienic
Where is the God here? Presence of God in these books is not a mandatory, not nice-to-have condition.
BTW, why you are against rabbinic woman? Considering current religious institutions, woman-with-a-kipa cannot worsen the situation.
Beit Mikdash only matters because it a your link to G-d; Hanuka, as well as the existence of the state of Israel, is a miracle where meatim nizhu rabim; and brit is only done because G-d told Avraham to do it.
About women in judaism - as you may have noticed, I wear pants and do not cover my hair. But at no point in time I claimed that to be jewdaism. Rav usially works in a pair with his wife, who is a rabanit; they deal with different aspects of live as a team. What really rubbed me wrong is the book about mixed marriage. That is just plain wrong.

it is a tradition only because it is first a religious observance, didn't we already have a simular conversation here?
