Judah & Tamar - R-rated Genesis Story XI

I discuss the parsha with Rabbi Rabbs Monday at 7pm PST on my live cam.

I put together these challenges for Rabbi Rabbs:

Parashat Vayeshev (Genesis 37-40):

Here's my problem with Judah and Tamar: She dresses up as a hooker. He buys her services. He doesn't even know her name. He apparently doesn't even look her in the face so that he could know who she was. He just uses her. Oy, it just makes me ill.

R. Rabbs explains the story.
