I must say, I find it really refreshing to read this comforting defense of women's rights to sell their bodies. Me, my great hope is that I can invest enough in my body via plastic surgery, liposuction, hair foofing, etc. that I can get a good return on myself, and possibly sell shares, therefore capitalizing on the current state of the market. Of course, there will be a sort of "me bubble" before people realize that I eventually must collapse into a cellulite-laden, heroin addicted, cancerous victim of breast implants, but hey, as long as I sell my shares in me while the market is good I can finance all my medical treatment.
Apologies, but I think there's a lot unexamined in all this left sex-positive stuff.

Not to mention Herb Alpert's "Whipped Cream".
The song itself is part of that immortal triple-play of American pop, "Whipped Cream" -- Herb Alpert, "Whip It" -- DEVO, and "Whip Smart" -- Liz Phair.
