Today in class, we talked about the movie, Crimes and Misdemeanors
- Associate sexuality with emotion

What was wrong with what Judah did (leaving aside murder)?
1.) He has emotional commitment to Miriam
2.) He has purely physical relationships with Delores
3.) Delores knows about embezzlement but Miriam does not
4.) We equate sex with both emotional and physical connection / whole relationship
5.) He's being unfair to Delores and Miriam (his daughter)
