Midrash for Shevuot 59:13
תני רב יוסף בצדק תשפוט עמיתך עם שאתך בתורה ובמצות השתדל לדונו יפה
R'Judah said: I heard that if they<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' The court.');"><sup>22</sup></span> desire to allow them both to sit, they may allow them to sit. What is prohibited?
Sifrei Devarim
"the two men": This tells me only of men (as being required to stand). Whence do I derive (the same for) a man (contending with) a woman; a woman with a man; two women with each other? From "who have the contention" — in any event. If so, why is it written "men"?
