Women as Sex Vendors: Why Women are Conservative

Authored by R. B. Tobias and Mary E. Marcy, "Women As Sex Vendors" offers a provocative analysis of women's social and economic status through the lens of their biological "commodity". The book explores the reasons behind women's perceived conservatism and their historical absence from the vanguard of world affairs, arts, and sciences by examining institutions such as marriage, monogamy, chastity, and the evolution of the family. The authors provide a critical perspective on how women's ownership of this vital commodity has shaped their fortunate yet constraining position in the struggle for existence.
