The Destruction of the Modern Orthodox Woman: Enough! Gender War and the Destruction of Family Follow

We offer here for free reading several book-segments, to be made into a book, Jewish Gender, Marriage and Sexuality. On this page, the contents of the book are listed for the first two segments. Segment Two, listed below by contents, is about women. However, we list Segment one first, because it is our first segment, and introduces the basic ideas of gender and sexuality in Judaism.

Commentary

"Rachel" has a SSA - Same Sex Attraction Husband. How did they work it out?

Should Women Play Golf with Men?

Women's Misery is discussed by showing how four different court cases will radically impact upon the security of women against men who threaten them. See why the Civil Rights unit of the US Department of Education is suing Harvard! Why women are often refused tenure because they want children. Why women students are raped but it is called "unwanted sex" and no criminal charges are filed. See the sides in the California case of a student who painted a picture of killing a woman police officer. Is it terrorism? Is it simply frustration? The article begins with the California case, so we name it, "Blow Her Brains Out! This is Public School." Provocative? Ask the female police officer. Ask the woman in Brandeis who was raped and the rapist not prosecuted. Ask the women professors who work themselves desperately to attain tenure but fail because they want children. Ask the women in Harvard whose sexual abuse complaints are not considered unless they bring proof.
