She says on The View that “Hasidic sex is oriented towards procreation,” because of the timing of Taharas MaMishpacha.
Isn’t Taharas HaMishpacha the obligation of EVERY Jewish married couple, not just Chasidim? Isn’t it true that intimacy between a married man and woman is ultimately to have children? She makes it sound that there’s something wrong with that.
She says in her book that she’s taught in Kallah Class that “Niddah” means “kicked aside.” Doesn’t it mean “moved” or “separation” ?
Then she writes,
” ‘Is this ok with you?’ I want to ask. ‘Agreeing that you are dirty because you are a woman?’ I feel betrayed by all the women in my life.”
Being a Niddah is just a different status. Who ever said that it was dirty? Why does she write that she feels betrayed?
