Food & Sex

Picture
“a woman prefers her husband to be a donkey driver, at home every shabbat to satisfy her sexually, even though he only earns 1 kab of wheat, rather than a distant camel driver who has sex once in 30 days, even though he earns 9 kabim” Ketubot 61a

Women prefer regular sex to a higher standard of living... those, silly impractical women. This is the reverse of the usual stereotype of the JAP, the jewish princess who prefers material possessions over sexual contact. But like wine, women & beasts, this is not a positive recognition of female sexuality but rather their foolish thinking.

Food associated with sex and fertility is incorporated, including some from the traditional 7 species (I am a traditionalist at heart) - figs, pomegranates, grapes and of course wheat in the lacework, all of which is dripping with honey... and the women, who know how to be satisfied without their husbands coming home...
