If you squint your eyes you can see that impulse to say it's empowering. Like when a musician is brought to an interview for an industry show and they ask about her love life. The thing is that people are asking about someone to represent them. To, as a sovereign, grant this person power. Yes, I do want to know how you intend to use this power that labor creates. You're auditioning to be a public servant, not a public celebrity.

not a public celebrity
