| The concept of erotic male bonding as something positive is interesting to conceptualize because instead of the men bonding with each other through other means, they chose to bond over a shared woman. This idea is unique because it almost shows that manhood cannot be achieved without a woman as a dependent variable. This notion is reinforced when men would use aliases to reduce recreational exposure to protect reputations and conceal relationships from women. The combination of sharing women and concealment fosters the revelation that manhood is expressed through means of risk, sex, and secrecy.

| + | Sex being a way that men bonded in this era, with homosocial relationships being how some prostitutes gained their clientele through recommendations or friends bringing others that they know would like the services of certain women. This creates an interesting double standard of who is allowed to feel a sense of loyalty to the other. While men would share the woman with their friends or other men they meet through this connection, there is evidence of the prostitute feeling a sense of loyalty to them from their clientele. This sense of loyalty or more-so a claim on the men was shared by the prostitutes who worked in the same house, not wanting to share their clients with the other women. (Sage Milton) | ||
