Session 4: Jewrotica
Our fourth session starts at CBI on May 22nd @ 7pm. This one will be online and in-person. Let’s talk about sex. Jewish Erotica is a thing, and “sex positive” Judaism is also a thing. We’ll discuss the place of human sexuality within Judaism. We’ll get into masochism’s Jewish roots. What salacious kinks are permitted? THIS ONE IS NOT FOR THE KIDS, LIKE AT ALL.

Join us for weekday minyan on Monday and Thursday @ 5:30pm, and Fridays for Kabbalat Shabbat at 5:30pm
