  • "Queer Jewish Summer Camp" with Queerkeit Incubator!!

    We're at queer summer camp!!! This summer the Yentas went to the Queerkeit Incubator retreat, a weekend for queer jews to create the media they wish they had on their queer Jewish journeys.... also everyone is hot. We asked some of the participants to share their hot takes about the weekend, and it was SPICY. We Yenta about: - Gay men have a different queer jewish experience- Everyone is horny- Going on a naked mikvah trip - Everyone wants everyone else to be messy (BTW we hope you can forgive us for some patchy sound! We did the best we could with a slew of folks who has never used a mic before! Also Antonia still had a concussion, so she's in sunnies, like a cool kid.)Announcement!
