The S-Word


I was strolling about the internet trying to come up with titles for my book when I found this "great" Jewish t-shirt website. I was all set to buy my husband, "Trust me, I'm a rabbi" until I saw...

"Shiksas are for Practice."

The site claims that "
each of our shirt ideas is carefully appraised by the Judgement panel to determine its humor, good taste, jewiness and originality." I'm sorry, does "Shiksas are for Practice" fall under humor, good taste, jewiness or originality? Wait, I know. It's falls under my guidelines for truly DISGUSTING.

I'm sure this is what we mean by being a light unto the nations, yes?

Words Aliza thinks are dirty and should never be used by Jews or anyone for that matter:

  • Shiksa
  • Shvartza-That similarly used derogatory word for African-Americans
  • Goy (when used in nasty references to non-Jews. My sister though does want a "Shabbos Goy" t-shirt)
