A man is not allowed to walk between two women. Does this apply where one of them is his mother (or sister)?
Answer
The source is Pesochim 111a and Horayos 13b where it says that it's koshoh leshikchoh (harms one's memory). Regarding relatives, Sefer Shemiras Haguf Vehanefesh page 333 brings from one sefer that it is mutar (allowed) (because the reason it is koshoh leshikchoh (harms one's memory) is because one diverts his attention from Torah to an Ervah, (so it doesn't apply to relatives).
However, all the other seforim don't make this distinction, so it appears that they disagree.
