Really? This happens? Wow. This story makes me lose faith in humanity.
There has to be some issue with language, or translation? Oh wait, this happened in Australia. Nevermind.
I find it difficult to address the question posed by the OP, but here goes:
None my husband's organs belong to me. I wouldn't sell his kidney if we were tight on funds. I wouldn't man-whore him out, either. I might joke that he's mine, but I wouldn't actually think that he belongs to me. So even if one insisted he was my property and attempted to make the argument that some portion of him belonged completely to me...When we married everything we owned suddenly belonged to each of us equally. He owns the laptop I'm typing on just as much as I do. So, with that argument in mind, he "owns" me just as much as I "own" him.
