Orthodox erotica is only getting better. You’ve met Jayde Blumenthal and now it’s time to meet Adam Arotti – author of forbidden Orthodox and biblical erotica.
Adam’s soon to publish and I’ve been fortunate enough to have a sneak preview of some of his stuff – it’s hot.
We’re all looking forward to him unveiling his stories, but in the meantime take a look at the opening salvo on his new website…
Hey 🙂
This is nude for me, so please bare with me as I figure everything out. No, those weren’t typos; they were just my fairly lame attempt at introductory humor with a bit of the flavor that you can expect from my website.
For generations, society has seen sexuality as a force that needs to be suppressed, or even better – repressed, before it even blossoms. And there are legitimate and fair reasons for that. Sexuality has unbelievable power; as an orgasm grips our entire body, so does sexuality permeate – and sometimes control – almost every area of our existence.
Tragically, however, we often tend to try to contain forces that we view as too powerful to control, rather than finding a way to harness or guide the power. If sexuality was a horse, the Christians would try to shoot the horse; and the Jews would lock it up in a beautiful palace, exclaiming how beautiful the horse is, but never letting it out for a wild run.
As a Jew, my approach to sexuality begins with the Torah. Yet, I have found that, when it comes to sexuality, the Torah-mores of today are not necessarily reflective of the Torah-mores of yore. Today, we try to present versions of our Patriarchs and Matriarchs that are decidedly asexual; as though those legendary lions could not possibly have squandered their divine energy on something so base as sexuality – and it would behoove us to follow in their too-lofty-to-be-sexy footsteps. Those few unavoidably sexual episodes in the Torah are either skipped entirely, or quickly glossed over as if they were the introduction to a boring blog.
To me, however, a close examination of our biblical forebears (with the help of a bit of creative license) reveals a different picture; one in which the lives of our models and Jewish archetypes were robustly erotic and sensual, and far more accessible to us than many would have us believe. In the coming weeks and months, I hope to share with you some of my erotic writing, in which I will endeavor to bring to hot and erotic life some of Torah’s more spicy stories.
However, some of my pieces decidedly take advantage of the sexual taboo created by our sexually-repressed environment. Everything sexual is even hotter when it is forbidden, when it goes counter to the prevailing culture, and Jewish Orthodoxy accommodates this dynamic by providing many forbidden areas. And so I will also be publishing some forbidden Jewish erotica, set within the very stern Orthodox sub-culture, which is populated by devout – yet nonetheless extremely erotic and sexy – rule-breakers.
To be candid, I am a bit more hesitant when it comes to these, as I am sensitive to the Jewish people’s role as a light unto the nations, and have no desire to make a Chillul Hashem by suggesting that the Jewish people are anything less than holy. At the same time, Jewish people have fantasies too; and, well, I’ve written some of them down, and I’m wondering if it would be selfish to keep them to myself!
So please stay tuned!
You definitely need to watch out for Adam. In the meantime, keep up with him at www.adamarotti.wordpress.com/
I first discovered Adam’s absence when I went to drop him a shana tova email – and the email bounced back! So I searched online – and to my (unpleasant) surprise I quickly learnt that his Amazon presence had been erased, his social media profiles deleted …he was gone!
