I knew of a few sisters who were called "jezebels" behind their back. I guess they had rightfully earned the nickname somehow...

I don't remember any actual Jezebel types. I do know that some sisters were persecuted if they looked a certain way, too shapely, or were too stylish.
In two halls I was associated with I observed that certain dowdy older women who didn't fix themselves up were very critical of certain attractive, stylish women. These overrighteous older women considered themselves to be pillars of the congregation because of age and longevity in the religion. As far as I was concerned, they looked like the pillars of the Acropolis.
While I was never called a Jezebel, I was regarded with suspicion. Mind you, I was never even reproved for immorality.

Some elder's wives were "Jezebelish".
