Women – know your place!

Filed under: judaism, women — Tags: , , — rachel @ 4:46 pm

(The title of this blog will only truly mean something to any British-based people visiting.  It references an advert for a men’s magazine that basically told women not to expect anything from their menfolk on Thursdays, when the magazine came out.  It was a funny advert, for a trashy magazine called ‘Nuts’, if you’re interested. I think the name tells you all you need to know!).

Anyway, I happened across a publication on the website for the Board of Deputies of British Jews earlier, called ‘Connection, Continuity & Community – British Jewish Women Speak Out’.  I haven’t finished reading it properly yet, but from what I have seen so far, it is quite interesting.  It covers many areas such as the role of women, the future of the Jewish community, intra-community networking, Jewish education, Hebrew and so on.  There are a lot of articulate women out there.

    • I’ll be ready – it would be dull if nobody bothered to offer their thoughts and opinions!
