MODERATE MEASURES

[65a middle] Braisa: One cup of wine is good for a woman, but two are degrading (ie: as it may result in her being disgraced). If she drinks three cups, she may solicit her husband verbally for intimacy. If she drinks four cups, she might solicit even a beast (donkey) in the marketplace; as she does not care at all [Rava: if her husband is not with her].

Prac-T-cal Tidbits: It is very important to consume foods, especially wine, in moderation. “When wine goes in, secrets come out.” We are not meant to eat gluttonously or drink as drunkards. Jews have a higher calling and are supposed to be lights unto the nations.
