A Postscript on Fetishes
We are at a trendy sushi place with some of her friends, a few Aramco employees, a few AUC grads. The girls are robed in abayas, per rule. But the second floor hideaway and the foreign flavors ensure that the muttawa religious bullies are far from anyone’s mind. One of the oil employees has just had a new haircut and asks the girls what they think.
“You look like that movie star,” one of the girls says, “what’s his name…Shia Labeouf.”
“What! Are you saying I look like a Jew!?”
“Jewish guys are really cute,” a second girl chimes in. “C’mon, seeing those Israelis in the papers when they show pictures of their army soldiers, admit it, they are really hot.”
My princess sends a wink my way with a grin of acknowledgement. I can only shake my head in bewilderment, clad in anonymity as I am to everyone save my one special lady in black at the end of the table.
I cannot say how universal the opinions from the sushi place are (though the guy did look like the Jewish actor). What I do know is that I certainly do not have a fetish for Arab girls, or for the “feminine other.” If I do have a fetish of sorts, it is for something far more hazardous…first kisses, and all the promise and mystery wrapped up in their embrace.

Celebrating 10 Years & Marking the End of An Amazing Project
Jewrotica was everything I had dreamed of and more: sexy attendees, tantalizing confessions, and well-written literature to boot! More importantly, it empowers us Jews to reach inside and own our sexy selves and heritage!
Such an amazing experience! The Sarah Lawrence Jewrotica workshop was more than I could have ever expected – a comfortable, safe, sultry environment where participants clearly felt good about sharing or listening to each other’s intimate experiences and relating them to sexy stories from the Torah. From the moment the workshop began, Ayo had a sweet presence that was kinetic and spread around the room; her storytelling abilities had everyone enraptured and made the conversation topics relata… Read more
I love the inclusiveness – there is something for everyone, in and out of the Jewish community.
I had a great time deejaying at the Jewrotica event at Columbia University. The live readings were hilarious, informative, and in some cases, deeply moving. I know that I, along with many of my AEPi fraternity brothers, loved being able to connect our Judaism and our sexuality in a way that made all of us feel comfortable and welcome. I look forward to being a part of this again in the future!
At Jewrotica’s Evening of Bedside Readings, students declaimed monologues on sexual encounters that had a Jewish twist. At Columbia/Barnard Hillel, the speakers pushed their own boundaries by performing a range of explicit narratives that challenged how the audience thought of the relationship to Judaism and sex. During the speakers’ preparation, the arguments about which narratives would be appropriate forced students to take a stand and voice their opinion on their own beliefs about Judaism an… Read more
Jewrotica is a great way to ask interesting questions about the interplay between sensuality and Jewish wisdom. Check it out.
I’m so glad that Jewrotica is represented here at Jewlicious! It’s bringing voices that need to be heard in the Jewish discussion and Jewish climate environment.
Jewrotica is something that the community has needed for a long time so that people can actually learn, express and share and have good relationships without having to stumble through life. Check out the site and learn something. Have fun!
I’m Heshy Fried from Frum Satire and I am very, very frum. And I completely support Jewrotica – it’s doing a service to the frum community. We need some sort of kosher sexual education. Jewrotica even has a system that allows frum filters to filter out certain things to make it PG for us. It’s mamish Torah. It’s like The Little Midrash Says for sex.
Jewrotica is inspiring Jews and erotica with holiness and coolness, and is the pride of progressive Judaism. Jewrotica – awesome!
