Ecclesiasticus 5:1-15
[1]Set thy heart upon thy goods; and say not, I have enough for my life.
[2]Follow not thine own mind and thy strength, to walk in the ways of thy heart:
[3]And say not, Who shall controul me for my works? for the Lord will surely revenge thy pride.
[4]Say not, I have sinned, and what harm hath happened unto me? for the Lord is longsuffering, he will in no wise let thee go.
[5]Concerning propitiation, be not without fear to add sin unto sin:
[6]And say not His mercy is great; he will be pacified for the multitude of my sins: for mercy and wrath come from him, and his indignation resteth upon sinners.
[7]Make no tarrying to turn to the Lord, and put not off from day to day: for suddenly shall the wrath of the Lord come forth, and in thy security thou shalt be destroyed, and perish in the day of vengeance.
[8]Set not thine heart upon goods unjustly gotten, for they shall not profit thee in the day of calamity.
[9]Winnow not with every wind, and go not into every way: for so doth the sinner that hath a double tongue.
[10]Be stedfast in thy understanding; and let thy word be the same.
[11]Be swift to hear; and let thy life be sincere; and with patience give answer.
[12]If thou hast understanding, answer thy neighbour; if not, lay thy hand upon thy mouth.
[13]Honour and shame is in talk: and the tongue of man is his fall.
[14]Be not called a whisperer, and lie not in wait with thy tongue: for a foul shame is upon the thief, and an evil condemnation upon the double tongue.
[15]Be not ignorant of any thing in a great matter or a small.
So y'all really gonna pay $88 to get butt 🍑 nekkid and talk about your period? 👀
At this private dinner party, clothing is not allowed.
The Füde Dinner Experience is hosted by the artist and model Charlie Ann Max. For $88, and after Max has approved the applications, guests come together to enjoy, according to the website: “a liberating space that celebrates our most pure selves, through plant-based cooking, art, nudity & self-love.” Put another way: It’s a naked vegan dinner party with a bunch of strangers.
Max started experimenting with naked events in 2020. The dinners were initially invite-only, but she opened them up to people who had heard about them through Instagram or word of mouth. Every dinner she hosted sold out, she said, and she was soon inundated with inquiries from aspiring nude diners from around the world. The draw of the naked dinner party is different for different people, she said. Some want to feel more connected to their own bodies, while others want to make new, similarly uninhibited friends. She makes her events look like Renaissance paintings because, Max said, “it feels very romantic.”
Each Füde Experience dinner has a theme. For this last dinner in New York, it was “Embracing Your Inner Rhythms: for Individuals to Connect with their Menstrual Cycles.” After an hour of mindful movement and breath work, the women squeezed around a dining table covered in silk, dried flowers and butt-shaped water glasses, and discussed their periods.
