Aaron is a 20-year-old ultra-orthodox Jew in London who secretly explores his sexuality in underground sex clubs at night while going to seminary school by day.

_____

Ultra-Orthodox Judaism, also called Haredi Judaism, any of several groups within Orthodox Judaism that strictly observe Jewish religious law and separate themselves from Gentile society as well as from Jews who do not follow the religious law as strictly as they do. Ultra-Orthodox communities are found primarily in Israel, where they form about 13 percent of Israel’s population; North America, particularly in New York City; and western Europe. Described as “isolationist,” ultra-Orthodox neighborhoods are generally composed of only Haredi Jewish families. Such communities are highly family-oriented, with a high birth rate and a near absence of interfaith marriage, and they have their own synagogues and schools.

We're all familiar with "No means, no," and "Yes, means, yes," yet it's not always so black and white in real-life situations. The term "sexual assault" means any nonconsensual sexual act proscribed by Federal, tribal, or State law, including when the victim lacks capacity to consent.

Consent is an agreement between participants to engage in sexual activity. When you’re engaging in sexual activity, consent is about communication—and it should happen every time. The laws about consent vary by state and situation, but you don’t have to be a legal expert to understand how consent plays out in real life.

Is it really cheating? If you haven't actually done anything? But it's clear, that it can be very dangerous to get involved in.An emotional affair generally starts innocently enough as a friendship. But when a person invests significant emotional energy and time in a close friendship outside of their marriage, it's possible for the friendship to form an emotional bond that ultimately threatens and hurts the person's intimacy with their spouse or partner.

While there are those who believe that an emotional affair is harmless given that there is no sexual relationship, most marriage and relationship experts view it as a form of cheating. Emotional affairs can also act as gateway affairs, eventually leading to both emotional and sexual infidelity. For many, the most hurtful and painful consequence of a partner's emotional cheating is the sense of being deceived, betrayed, and lied to.

Crystal was born and raised in Puerto Rico. When she was just 14, she got pregnant. Her very religious mother called their priest, and she was married to her 16-year-old boyfriend and the father of her child. The marriage didn't last; at 16, she asked to move to the states with her biological father. For years, he groomed her to be his wife and the mother of his child. And by the time she was 19, he took things too far. 

Trigger warning - topics include incest and sexual abuse; listener discretion is advised.

It’s not a fetish. Not there’s anything wrong with fetishes. It’s just that Mark has always loved to be with men who weren’t “fit” or had the “great body,” instead, he appreciated a man with a bit of weight on them. It sounds like a good deal for someone who doesn’t follow the diet fads to stay in shape or lose weight, but what if the partner isn’t comfortable with the extra weight, then what?
