There needs to be a 'Ask the Jewish Person' thread

My friend is interested in dating her Jewish neighbor and wants to educate her self on his customs without having to ask some rather personal questions. Actually just one comes to mind…

Is it true that Jewish men will not/can not preform oral sex?

thanks

False. False false false false false. Next question?
;j

Bwahahahahaha!

No.

Out of curiosity, where did you get that idea from?

A male friend told her.

cock block

Is your friend Jewish?

My guess would be that if your friend was not Jewish then any Jewish man who would be willing to date her would not worry too much about any possible restrictions on sex.

If she is Jewish, then she should speak to her rabbi.

No sir, not Jewish herself. As with any religion he might follow some rules and not others. But I think that issue is clear for her now.

When he comes over is there anything she should not offer him besides pork? Is any ol’ beer ok?

As in pretty much any religion, the answer to your questions depend on what denomination the fellow practices and how observant he is. Many US Jews do not keep Kosher or only keep Kosher at home. If he does keep Kosher, avoid pork and shellfish. Meat and milk products should not be mixed, e.g. cheeseburgers are right out.

At least at the reform Judiasm level, I’m not aware of any prohibitions regarding sex – my impression is that Judiasm has less hangups regarding sex than most other religions.

Frankly, I wouldn’t worry about the religious aspect right off.

Just not during Passover (one week, usually in April) or on Yom Kippur, the day of atonement where Jews fast.

However, Jews may eat pork, shrimp, cheeseburgers, and pepperoni pizza through a hole in the sheets! ;j

You might want to have a look at www.jewfaq.org.

Don’t forget decorating Christmas trees & humping washing machines!

No. A Jewish man will do this, for the pleasure of his wife. Cite: Code of Jewish Law Chp. CL para. 9.

But it may be prohibited or maybe not, depending on the interpretation of Chp. CL para. 5.

As in all things, “Two Jews, three opinions.” Even within the rules about sex & chastity.

You took the hat of the wrong head. What’re you, a buch of wise guys?

As someone with a somewhat irrational attraction to Jewish men, I can attest that this isn’t true of the gay Jews, either.

I just had to pitch in: Jewish men are so cute and hot! Every time I go to a synagogue or a Jewish service I waste half the time checking out the guys.

Jews rock!

Did he also tell her that Jews have horns?

I’m glad I’m not the only one. Most people tend to think I’m insane.

I like jewish guys.

Speilburg is on the tops of Guys I’d Schtupp. :cool:

Oh, so that’s why I’m so horny!! :o

No but he told her a bunch of other crap that was insane. Like that Jewish guys can cheat on there wives as long as it’s with a gentile. He has a huge crush on her so she wasn’t taking him seriously until she remembered hearing something about the oral before.

Thanks for all the info and the links. I’m ashamed I’ve never made the effort to learn before now.
