.” Rabbi Shuley Boteach (1999, p. 55) identified physical intimacy of a husband and wife as something that symbolizes the tie between God and all of His creations. He stated that it is because of this symbolism “that Judaism has always identified sex as the most holy of all human endeavors.”
Sexual intimacy is . . . symbolic of a union between mortals and deity, between otherwise ordinary and fallible humans uniting for a rare and special moment with God himself and all the powers by which he gives life in this wide universe of ours. . . "
As a single person is it ok to study and explore our sexuality? or just wait until marriage?
how can we as parents and guardians better educate our youth on healthy sexuality?
how can we overcome our own bias's regarding sexuality?
Well as a single person I have gone back and forth in studying sexuality for in my mind that was for marriage. However, married or not we need to understand the lords' teachings on sexuality so we can teach the youth. I also feel it's best to enter marriage as prepared as possible and that includes sex education. I feel sex is a topic people have a hard time talking about i know for me growing up it wasn't discussed unless I had questions. I think we need create a safe and open dialogue where parents can talk to their children regarding sex.
For if we don't teach our children about sex, they will hear it from someone else.
