People who watched that The Simpsons episode with sideshow Bob in court know this one:
In German, "die" is an article for feminine nouns. So Bob said "Die Bart, die. That's German" as to explain he wasn't meant to threaten Bart but was "just" using German (which is wrong in the grammatical sense, btw. Bart is a boy so you'd use "der" in German, the article for male nouns - if anyone wanted to know).

I also find the nine nine nine meme funny. When you say "nine" in Germany, people would understand "nein", which translates to "no" in English.

As someone who does not speak German, but have a few friends who speak German/Yiddish, I am impressed that I was aware of this conceptually : ))

This is the opposite, but in Hebrew "die" means enough.

It's always funny to hear an Israeli yelling at their child in the grocery store "DIE!"

I'm a Reform Jew. Was born and raised that way. My mom was Jewish ('was' because she passed away 6 years ago), and my other parent was raised Catholic. However, that other parent isn't Catholic, feels closer to Judaism, but feels she's Buddhist. Her family did not approve of her marrying a Jew, and my mom's Ultra Orthodox sister refused to go to the wedding or talk to her for 7 years. My parent's side occasionally tries to convert me...Makes for an odd mix of things when I meet either side in person. In that way, it's good I don't live near any of my other relatives besides my parent. There is quite a bit of amatonormitivity and heteronormitivity going on in Jewish communities. Even though I'm not orthodox, I've known congregants from synagogues (I'm not a member of either of the local ones anymore) try to set me up with someone. There's also a 'responsibility' of men to 'fulfill' the duty of satisfying their women sexually. Women are considered sexual beings. We're also told to be fruitful and multiply. There's a prayer that's beautiful, but it's referring to G-d as their 'beloved'. For us, G-d is referred to as a man and a woman. Typically a woman on Shabbat, or our Day of Rest. The interesting thing is we also feel that G-d is beyond gender. Everything and nothing 'wrestle with G-d', many are atheist. I'm not, but even Ultra Orthodox Jews can be. We don't have a blind 'devotion' or something to G-d. We're told to question everything. I've thought about being more observant (like Modern Orthodox), but just at the same time. Interesting growing up with that when you're agender. Also, since wecan't right now. I can't go to a synagogue as much as I'd like, because I have an autoimmune disease. It would cost more to be fully kosher. Plus, I live with someone who doesn't eat kosher at all. Just lots of circumstantial stuff.

I know this is three years late but cool, I'm also Jewish! Orthodox to be exact. I'm sorry you had those experiences with those people in shuls, not all of us are like that.

-I'm just going to correct what you said about the sexual parts of a Jewish relationship.-

It is a mitzvah (commandment) for men and men alone to have kids. Obviously, that's sort of impossible without someone's uterus being involved. So when men need to have sex, they must make sure their wives are also enjoying-it shouldn't just be about them. 

As for god being agender-yes we believe that. God also has "feminine" and "masculine" qualities, so when God is acting in whichever one, we refer to it as She/Him, depending.

I am Atheist and Jewish. Judaism is more of my culture rather than my religion. The rest of my family is Jewish. It really depends what religion, but I think most encourage romantic love and marriage but don't exclude people who are not married or something like that. 

Jewish is an ethnicity. It means nothing on your religious belief. You can be Jewish and pagan, Jewish and be a Christian... It's a legacy and something you can't change; it's your DNA. (/nm, just wanted to say this point and it kind of connected to what you're saying, I'm not attacking you-you actually agree with what I am saying.)

Anywhoooo, the religion would be Judaism, but anyone could **in theory** be Jewish, even if they don't practice that.

Hey everyone!

I've been among queer spaces since May of 2020 and I've known I was straightn't since at least 2018, when I was 15. 

Recently I've been trying to figure out exactly what all my feelings where, and after being on TrevorSpace and Aven, I decided it was high time to join Arocalypse. 

I'm turning 18 in 2 weeks and I'd love to make some friends.
