Description
Please join fellow Tufts alumni for this special evening with Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg, Tufts Hillel’s Senior Jewish Educator and editor of the critically acclaimed “The Passionate Torah: Sex and Judaism."
Rabbi Ruttenberg will be discussing such hot questions as:
• What does Judaism have to say about relationships that involve kissing (or that might involve kissing, or that used to involve kissing, or…)?
• What can traditional text on the erotic teach us?
• What does it mean to move through the world with a "Jewish sexual ethic?"
• What does sex-positive Judaism look like?
• What exactly is "kosher sex", anyway?
Registration is FREE and the first 20 people who register will receive a free autographed copy of the book.
