ULTRA ORTHODOX: Hasidic Jewish Sect FORCED Her to Marry; Denied Gay Woman a Divorce

ULTRA ORTHODOX: Hasidic Jewish Sect FORCED Her to Marry; Denied Gay Woman a Divorce

Sara Glass knew she kept falling in love with women, but that didn’t matter. She knew her place as an Ultra Orthodox woman. She was placed into an arranged marriage to a man shortly after graduating high school and she painfully left her girlfriend behind. Sara vulnerably shares in great detail about what it was like navigating s*x, pregnancy, chiIdbirth and postpartum as a Hasidic woman who was also gay.
