  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.

  Hannah S., A Student at SUNY Purchase

  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!

  Michael Richmond, Columbia University Class of ’13

  Jewrotica is awesome. It expands the mind and for people who were raised with narrow views on sexuality. Whether you are Jewish or not, or in different sects of Judaism like Orthodox, Conservative or Reform, no matter what your background or where you’re from, Jewrotica gets you to see Judaism and how it relates to sexuality in new ways. I really appreciate Ayo being here and helping us learn different ways to connect with our sexuality.

  Vanessa Steiner, Young Professional in Southern California

  I’m into Jewrotica. I went in for my second circumcision.

  Josh Karp, Artist and Staff at Jewlicious

  Jewrotica rocks. It’s funny, it’s informative, it’s sexy, it’s interesting. Check it out!

  Sam C., Young Professional in the Valley, CA

  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’.

  Barnard College Student, Presenter at the Columbia University Kickoff Event

  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.

  Ramona Rubin, Grassroots Activist in Berkeley, CA

  The people behind Jewrotica are quite quality! I have confidence that any project these folks take on will be equally quality.

  Rabbi Drew Kaplan, Chaplain at Long Beach Hillels

  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!

  Erin L., University of Texas at Austin Social Work Graduate Student

  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
