As women are the sexual selectors, when they sexually reject men based on "what men have to offer" they are sexually commodifying '''themselves''' with a certain exchange value. Sex, in the absence of [[Sexual Marxism|Sexual Marxism/Fascism]] then becomes a, "'''female''' commodified resource for social exchange", in which a, "broad range of valued goods", are competed for by men in order to, ''purchase'' sex from women with this broad array of (often non-monetary) resources.<ref>https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S016748701630277X</ref> Females compete with each other to, "sell high", in the form of withholding sex,<ref>Baumeister & Twenge, 2002</ref> slut-shaming, and gossip. Whereas male sexual competition takes the form of amassing the "broad range of valued goods": fame, wealth etc. When men compete in terms of resources and women raise the resource cost of sex, this creates a situation where the men with the most resources get the most sexual access. | As women are the sexual selectors, when they sexually reject men based on "what men have to offer" they are sexually commodifying '''themselves''' with a certain exchange value.

In other words, women pair, "up", in resource status among men.<ref>https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S016748701630277X</ref> Women, being the sellers of the sexual access they collectively commodify as much as possible,can choose '''whenever they want to have sex''' by merely accepting a buyer or lowering their price. Whereas men must engage in the work necessary to amass the resources required to buy what women collectively commodify if women refuse to submit to [[Sexual Marxism]] or give sex away for free and without discrimination. | In other words, women pair, "up", in resource status among men.<ref>https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S016748701630277X</ref> Women, being the sellers of the sexual access they collectively commodify as much as possible,can choose '''whenever they want to have sex''' by merely accepting a buyer or lowering their price.
