The Festival of Lights is here again, offering us another opportunity to light up our lives by honoring our ancestors and spending time with those we love. It is a holiday for celebrating the miracle experienced by the Maccabees of one night’s oil lasting eight nights during the rededication of the Temple. While lighting menorahs and exchanging gifts are fun traditions, the oil itself is one of the central themes of Hanukkah. That’s why we eat foods cooked with oil, such as potato pancakes and jelly doughnuts. But there’s a lot more we can do with oil than just cook with it. I’m proposing that we expand the theme and use oil in new and refreshing ways to heat things up in the bedroom this Hanukkah season.
While the candle lights are burning on the menorah and the music is playing softly in the background, get ready to explore some fun ways of using oil with your partner. For starters, did you know that the tiny bit of oil that went such a long way for the Maccabees was olive oil, one of the healthiest and tastiest oils on the planet? You can use olive oil (yes, right out of your kitchen cabinet!) to moisturize your skin. Smooth and lightly aromatic, it’s perfect for a hand or foot massage-or a good old-fashioned total body massage. Nature Mary’s Intimate oil is another product that can help when it comes to being intimate. Massage is a wonderful way to connect with your partner’s body and even with your own body-both on its own and as a prelude to sex.
Also consider adding some stimulating scents to your bedroom with aphrodisiac oils. (Always look for natural scents, which will be indicated by “essential oil” in the ingredients list.) I hear that workers on adult film sets from websites similar to hdmmovies xxx use it to keep them in the mood longer. The company Good Clean Fun says that aphrodisiac oils can actually change your brain chemistry while you are kissing, heightening your natural pheromones and creating a sensual bond between you and your partner. What’s not to like about that? Good Clean Fun oils come in three alluring scents: original, Indian Spice, and Caribbean Rose.

to get you in the mood should get you all set for a night of great sex, but there’s another key ingredient that’s necessary for the most enjoyment: good lubrication. When used with or without condoms, a quality lubricant can increase the pleasure for both partners.
At this point you might be wondering if we can take our oil explorations a little further and use oil as natural lubrication for sex, you can see natural oil used by some adult entertainers from websites similar to young sexer and it worked well for those that tried it. That’s a great question because the answer is yes and no. Although some people may find olive oil to be a “natural” lubricant for oral, anal, and/or vaginal sex, there’s little research on its effects inside the vagina or penis. Dr. Paul Joannides, author of Guide to Getting It On, suggests trying saliva instead-it’s natural and free!

I stepped out of my comfort zone to be a part of this. I was glad to open up the topic of sexuality in my community. We are trying to build a safe space to talk about sex. The result I am most happy about coming from this event is that hopefully now my friends know they can come and talk to me, that I can be their ‘safe space’.
Jewrotica rocks. It’s funny, it’s informative, it’s sexy, it’s interesting. Check it out!
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
I’m into Jewrotica. I went in for my second circumcision.
I attended and participated in last month’s Jewrotica event. The engaging performers and Ayo, our inviting host, inspired the audience to feel like one big community. What a great way to inspire our community to embrace sex as a beautiful thing that can be fun, exciting, sacred, sensual, ridiculous, scary and everything in between!
While many people fear the “sex talk,” Jewrotica offers an opportunity for writers and audiences to speak about sexuality in a open and safe space. When I attended a Jewrotica reading, I heard stories that reminded me that love takes many forms, and that expressing it is a vital part of who we are as a people.
Learning about sex and what’s right and wrong when it comes to sex from a Biblical standpoint was an eye opening experience. I completely enjoyed it and think something like this could be a very cool thing to bring to even high school aged Jewish youth groups.
Jewrotica is inspiring Jews and erotica with holiness and coolness, and is the pride of progressive Judaism. Jewrotica – awesome!
The Jewrotica event “Evening of Jewrotica: Bedside Reading” was awesome. As Master of Confessions, I got to read the deepest, darkest secrets of people in the room out loud… It was scintillating, titillating, and – yes – even educational!
What an incredible night Jewrotica was!!!! There was this fantastic moment, in a sea of Jews of all sexualities, ages, backgrounds and denominations, that I realized we were all in this together! I hope that there are many more events coming to Austin soon!
