Goyim just means "nations". It is not derogatory.
And by the way, the Torah starts off talking about the issurim of arayos with the words "kimaasei eretz mitzrayim - and - eretz kinaan, lo saaseh".
We don't have to be more politically right than the Torah.

Thanks for all your feedback.

Mazal Tov to Klal Yisrael. A new holy org/site was born today! :D

After speaking over with some big Rabbanim, we decided that it would be best for everyone to divide GYE's Prevention (filters, shmiras ainyaim, etc.) as a completely different website, under a different organization... We're brain-storming right now for a name and we need your help... One good name might be: venishmartem.com (which says "Prevention" clearly) Another possibility is losasuru.com - like on this flyer (the organizer of the event said we can have the name. He will be working with us anyway). Some else suggested Facethechallenge.com The name should preferably include not just internet protection, but shmiras ainayim as well... Here are some other ideas that were put forth so far: protectyoureyes secureyourhome purehomes cleaninternet kosherinternet glatthome glatweb glateyes koshereyes vehiskadishtem internetshemira.com computersafety.com Meetthechallenge.com Meetingthechallenge.com

March 15, 2012 On Thursday night, March 1, 2012, 15 Kallah teachers gathered at a private meeting in Boro Park to discuss ShmirasEiynaim and the effect it is having on SholomBayis within the frum community. Life Coach, Esther Katz of Memphis, Tennessee was invited to speak to these women about ShmirasEiynaim and how to advise Kallahs on issues of SholomBayis, Her topic was, “I discovered my husband has been looking at inappropriate pictures, what I do now?” Mrs. Katz and her husband Allan, a certified rehabilitation counselor, have been helping couples on www.guardyoueyes.com for over four years, to repair their marriages torn asunder by the ravages of sex and love addiction. Mrs. Katz explained the addiction / disease model to the teachers and the need for couples to begin counseling with a certified sex addiction therapist. She went on to explain how wives should set boundaries and not work harder on their husband’s recovery than their husbands are. Mrs. Katz’s talk received rave reviews, as the teachers group is working on having Mrs. Katz return to speak to more Kallahteachers. Mr. & Mrs. Katz are available to give lectures and workshops on SholomBayis and addictions related to shmiras eiynaim. For more information or to schedule a talk in your area, contact Esther Katz at 901-219-3072.

www.guardureyes.com/GUE/misc/SatmarRebbeOnInternet.mov Translation from the Yiddish: ( thepartialview.blogspot.com/ ) The yetzer Hora could not fathom the success of klal yisroel and the rebuilding of torah and chesed in America and he brought tummah in the form of technology into jewish homes that caused them to sin. Just like in the time of Haman so too today we have Keilim that have entered our homes and cause us to sin. They are in the form of videos, DVDs, the Internet, a new makkah called facebook, twiters, and other various names. Others know of these better than i do. Unfortunately it claimed many korbanos and destroyed many jewish homes. Frum ehrliche kids from the best of homes, threw off the yoke of torah and mitzvos publicly, with no shame. There are those who did not go as far, yet, they walk around outwardly dressed in a chasidishe levush but on the inside they are rotting and do kol davar assur discreetly in the privacy of their home. It has entrapped youngeleit ,baal habatim, bochrim, girls and married men and women of all ages. It all starts with thekvetch of a knepel ,the push of a button, in one second they went into the dirty ports and they arrived at Sheol tachtis. Plunging into the lowest of the low . Its a Makka of which one touch of a button you are joined with others. Its called chatrooms such as facebook were you socialize and connect with others. Men hooking up with light headed women with prutzim and prutzos. Yiddishe kinder are sending pictures of themselves to each other. It makes your hair stand up to what is going on in our machneh of shomrei torah umitzvos. Even the kosher ones is addicting like a magnet, it ruins shalom bayis to the worst degree sometimes its the man of the house sometimes its the mother of the home. The man looses his wife and she looses her husband you cant talk to the husband his mind is totally occupied with his computer day and night. The yetzer hora of arayos is burning like a fire up to the sky. It consumes daily precious neshamos of yiddesher kinder .The maakos of DVDs videos etc...even though initially it starts off kosher with a heter it eventually leads to what chazal say hayom omar lo aseh kach muchur aseh kach etc. untill we come to the worst. This is a fact, it happens and we cant fool ourselves with so called passwords and other safeguards and think that it is protected from others gaining access to it. this is a mistake. Kids and youngsters are smarter and more tech savvy than their parents and can get around the so called protections. The rebbe ended with a plea to the Women to have mercy on their mishpachos and get rid of these keilim from their homes.if one needs it for parnasah it should be moved out of the house to a different location. In the zechus of us protecting and safeguarding out families from this shmutzmay Hk'bh protect and watch over klal yisrael.
