In ancient times people weren't just male or female, but one of three types: male/male, male/female, or female/female. In other words, each person was made out of the components of two people. Everyone was happy with this arrangement and never really gave it much thought. But then God took a knife and cut everybody in half, right down the middle. So after that the world was divided just into male and female, the upshot being that people spend their time running around trying to locate their missing other half.
In the past, individuals existed in a more complex form with three classifications: male/male, male/female, or female/female, suggesting a harmonious blend of traits. This unity was a source of contentment, as people did not question their identities. However, a divine act disrupted this balance, leading to the severing of individuals into solely male and female categories.
As a result, humanity became divided, compelled to search for their “other half” to regain completeness. This narrative captures the essence of longing and connection, reflecting the human experience of seeking wholeness in companionship.
