Commodity is an article of trade or commerce, especially a product as distinguished from a service. According to Constable, “ While analyses of catalogs provides insightful critiques of gender ideologies and of objectification and commodification of Asian women, they also reveal and important gap between scholarly interpretations of catalogs and actual lived experienes as expressed by women and men.” ( pg.15, Constable) With now the help of social media and other strategies, one can figure out who they are as a person and see who they can be matched too. People can now do their own reasearch and make sure that there best that they can be.

Mail Order Brides are also commodities because we don’t need them. But, we are giving them a life that they could not ever wish to have. They can get married to a stranger and learn to love this person as they get older. They come to a new area and have to learn to love and be with someone they don’t truly know.
