Ketubot 39: Trigger Warning: Rape

Talking Talmud - A podcast by Yardaena Osband & Anne Gordon

There are women who might use the talmudic era version of barrier birth control, including a pregnant woman, a nursing woman, and especially with concern for the minor... So the Gemara defines who is a minor. Plus: "God protects the fools." Also, a new mishnah: what is the difference between a seducer and a rapist? Including the rapist marrying the woman he raped. Plus, the Amoraim consult the women in their lives - an interesting recognition that the "women's voice" was necessary.
