I pray, 'Then the Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper who is just right for him.” ' God responds, "True, I did say that; but only after I had put man in the garden, affirming his purpose. His helper came both-as a result of his placement there and -for the support of the purpose for his placement there. You are alone because your purpose doesn't seem to match Mine ... oh I know it runs to Flow with Mine before too long, but your partner won't know that until you have a large number of friends cooperating toward your Flow ...

"'

I always thought that was sort of a "men's club"-moral, and maybe it is; but Amanda Peet (or Judy Collins, casting- or Peter M. Cohen, screenwriter-of Whipped) helped teach me a truer meaning of 'Bros-before-Hos.'

In Whipped, Peet played "Mia" (a 'sex-scammer'—one who kind of 'reverses the gender-roles' by 'scoring' lots of men through understanding their attempts to score lots of women). She observes the methods- and goals of her prey before she acts on their actions.

Here she sees three guys tag-teaming to pick-up a group of gals in the park, she uses the observations to strategically meet- and 'ensnare' each one of the three seperately, and she's able to convince each one that she is 'only his'—even after all three agree to 'share' Mia! (And you won't believe which one she chooses in the end!)

That's how self-centered men can become. The common man believes that–although each man's nature is decidedly polygamist–his 'soulmate'-woman can only handle one man. The feeling one gets from being an 'only' (despite the fact that he's merely one of a succesion) is the part of God's gift that the man feels. The part he doesn't feel–the shadow of 'the gift'–is the fact that he is only one of a succession of men ... all of whom are kept out of each other's awareness by a condition of their agreement to accept the gift.

Since pop-media only sees women as 'hos' (MythManian Asiatic Sanskrit for 'dominoes falling as dominoes will') and not as 'bros' (MythManian for 'people with inspired causes as good as one's own'), men are enchanted into regarding women as 'property'—not in the sense of 'control over use of-,' naturally; but in most other senses.

Understanding all this, a man can only settle with the woman he would choose as his only helper and can only hope she settles with only him in return.

Now I see that I must first be my spouse's 'bro' (by regarding her as my own 'bro'), and then we can evolve into each other's 'hos' from there. Thank you Amanda Peet (et al.)!
