SISTERS OF RUTH
Bad girls that do good
They’re the sisters
Of Ruth
Taking one for the team
Sex for charity
Love’s Saints
Cult for centuries
Sexy surprise
At night
They prowl and they sneak
Uncovering feet
To peek
Rewarding good boys
With sweet delights
God’s girls
Author's note: Sisters of Ruth is based on urban mythology that there is a secret society of women, who like the Old Testament's Ruth, award good charitable men with acts of sex. This secret society that predates Christ, is active among us, changing the world for good, one blowjob at a time.
I don't know if they really exist, but if they don't, they should.

I thought OT Ruth only rewarded her Boaz with sex AFTER marriage (Ruth happens to be one of my favourite Bible books).

Hotly debated among theologians, I believe it is what it is. Ruth wasn't uncovering his feet to count his piggy-toes.
I understand where your coming from and appreciate the perspective. But I think we need to keep a couple of things in consideration when reading the Book of Ruth. Unlike the heavy metaphor of the Song of Songs, Ruth is a very straight forward write.
And we most consider, that many of the books of old, including Ruth, Kings, Maccabees, have been toned down sexually through the many language interpretations.
Keep in mind as a widow, Ruth was considered used goods. Her and Naomi were starving. In a world of male treachery, they came across a shy, but nice guy, in the person of Boaz.
I can see Naomi puffing on a cigarette, urging Ruth to get thee to the threshing room floor.
"Ruthie, that Boaz likes you. He's one of those guys that's to shy to try. So why don't you get your butt up there and show him a good time. Not only does the kid deserve it, but he might hooked on your nook. So get up there and make his beanie spin."
Thanks for the input. Write on!

It is very romantic on face of it but I look at the story in context of the fact that the widow of a Jew who died without him having children was liable under Moses law to marry the available brother or other male kinsman of the husband. A brother's widow was considered chattels of the brother's estate.
Also the uncovering of the man's feet was a custom of proposing marriage by extending a garment in symbolic cover. Of course it took place in a location where it could be misconstrued by a casual observer, at night.
Boaz was a kinsman of her late husband, of the same tribe (Judah) and while it is easy to think it was perhaps love at first sight, it would not be surprising if Boaz was as family aware of Ruth's situation, that there was property to be taken on in inheritance and he may have had in the back of his mind that he was part of the solution.

Solomon, on this one we could debate. There are schools of thought on both sides. But let me put it this way.
I awake to a hot nude woman lifting up my nighty, I can assure you I'm damn well gonna do a lot more then just cuddle. By morning they'll find her at the foot of my bed, turned inside out like an old pair socks.
My interpretation might not be right, but it's a lot more plausible.

I read that chapter again. Ruth was not (explicitly at least) nude, she was wearing her best clothes that included a shawl. She may have been bare footed, as was perhaps commonplace.

They must all be blind because they haven't found me hiding right here in plain sight.
Interesting story. Wish I knew about this years ago. I would have spent my youth doing good deeds...

I believe I have heard about this urban myth ... I think they eventually moved down to 42nd street because love for no money didn't work out as well as they had planned ... ?

I offer to be thrown to these sisters. Would hate for them to be without a team to cheer.
Fantastically entertaining, both the piece and your dialogue with brother Solomon
