The backlash has revived the idea that women are only meant to look good and provide pleasure to others (their husbands, implicitly), as though it is their only purpose, without the expectation of receiving any measure of that pleasure to be returned to them. Betty Crocker meets Barbie.
Bodies is used in place of the word "being" or "creature" or other dehumanizing description.
