Discussion of the Konstellations

[Koen G]

my take is different. the male wants the female but she is/plays hard to get. she is not bound, she is holding a spindle behind her back. he reaches for her, but she maintains her own independence.

That is different, yet similar at the same time. Some people see the man as a sexual predator, you see it more in a sense of seduction/courtship. But the reading of the man as a "hunter" is similar, as opposed to the man as a liberator like Stellar suggested.
