Talmud: Megillah Story ch.1, Lesson 14 Daf/Page 12b Not to be outdone by her husband, the freshly minted monarch Achashvairosh; the royal heiress turned Queen Vashti hosts a parallel female version of the Inaugural Royal Ball. Being equally promiscuous in character and licentious in behavior; her choice of location, revelry, and festivities were designed to stimulate illicit lust and sinful desire. Predictably, vulgarity abounded, but the surprising end result shocked everybody.
