What if in the Torah, God is a brand new Dominant bumbling through issues of negotiation and consent? What if Isaac is a good boy who is the full-time, live-in submissive of Rebecca, his Mommy Domme? What if Moses and Aaron share a fetish for sticks and poles? This class will explore what happens when we apply a BDSM or kinky lens to challenging stories and issues in the Torah. What new insights emerge? Do we find new paths into the text? Do we develop greater empathy for the biblical characters? Or do we see new challenges to connecting? Regardless of where you find yourself kink-wise or where you see yourself Jewishly, this type of reading will teach you something about yourself and the Torah text you explore through it.

—

This class will be recorded and available to enrolled students to watch later.

Cost

This course is available at a sliding scale cost of $126 (the true cost), $99 or $72.

If you can afford the full price, we hope you will choose that option, which allows us to continue to offer lower rates and scholarships to those who otherwise would not be able to access this learning because of financial barriers.

If you need financial aid beyond the sliding scale, please fill out this simple form, and we will get right back to you.
