It seems a davar pashut that nowadays we bend over backwards to avoid revealing a woman's Niddah status.
Yet in the days of the Mikdash, her status had to be public knowledge, in order to avoid contaminating Hallah, for example. Kohanim to know her status re: mishkav and moshav.
So when did this attitude change? How?
Shalom,
RRW

a lot of my world view is based on the Talmud. i also was very disconcerted by seeing the values of the frum world being very different and in many cases the exact opposite of the Torah and Talmud. The case you mention is just the tip of the iceberg.
