The relationship depicted in it is way more healthy than most modern erotica, even, not bad for an ancient text written in an era where women's rights weren't very high priority.

* BestKnownForTheFanservice: While the Song of Solomon does contain some fairly explicit references to sex it's pretty tame by modern standards and does have other content besides the lovey-dovey stuff. What do most modern readers recognize it as? "Oh, hey! It's that part of the Bible that gets borderline pornographic at times! Cool!"
