When Women Were Invisible Friends
Think of your closest female friend. Now imagine a world where that relationship-that deep, sustaining bond-was considered impossible. For two thousand years, friendship was written about, celebrated, and theorized as an exclusively male domain. Philosophers from Aristotle to Cicero waxed eloquent about brotherhood and virtue between men, while women were dismissed as too jealous, too emotional, too petty to form genuine bonds. The Hebrew Bible gives us David and Jonathan, whose souls were "knit together" in love so profound that Jonathan defied his own father to protect his friend. Meanwhile, women appear primarily as rivals-Sarah and Hagar fighting over Abraham, Rachel and Leah competing for Jacob's affection. The message was clear: women connected through men, not each other. Yet beneath this male-dominated narrative, something else was happening. Ruth's famous pledge to Naomi-"Whither thou goest, I will go"-reveals a different story, one of women choosing each other despite a world that barely acknowledged such choices mattered. This invisibility wasn't evidence of absence but of a profound cultural blindness that would take centuries to correct.
