PROPERTY?
CAN YOU SAY
“I HAVE A BODY?
When I decided to look for a job, I use my

should go only to look for a job. Now that I am
employed, here is my boss and will use my
body to do this and do that because I need this
for a deadline.

TO MEET BEFORE
YOU CAN CLAIM
OWNERSHIP OF
YOUR BODY

body except me alone.
It is mine and mine
alone.

responsible over what
he/she owns.

presupposes full
control over what
he/she owns.
