「Viewing women as commodities [see 品] was also made customary from Song Dynasty (960 - 1279) forward, both in the suddenly expanded labor market and within relationships. Men could sell their female kin to slavery or prostitution, and frequently did.」

　「Bound feet were a mark of beauty…. Women, their families, and [her owner] took great pride in tiny feet, with the ideal length, called the 'Golden Lotus,' being about 7 cm (2.75 inches) long. …The process was started before the arch of the foot had a chance to develop fully, usually between the ages of 2 and 5. …Bound feet were once considered intensely erotic in Chinese culture. …Qing Dynasty sex manuals listed 48 different ways of playing with women's bound feet.」

　「In traditional Chinese medicine, there has never been a mental disease called pedophilia (or an equivalent term), or homosexuality, or most of the other so-called sexual variations for that matter. …Children are usually described as natural sexual beings and erotic stimulation and sex-play are seen as beneficial to their healthy development.」

　「Transformed into fleshpot」or「transformed asset, wealth」noting the upper elements refer to the process of dis-integrating feet to become divinely transformed into sex machine COMMODITIES, hence someone's PROPERTY of VALUE to be traded, bought and sold by the shamans and lords, an ASSET, GOODS, a useful meat PRODUCT, and something (no longer 'someone') that must be CARRIED as CARGO, FREIGHT since the girl could no longer walk of her own accord. Note the English semblance among the words「commode」and「commodities」that both related directly to the female genitals.
　「Convertible wealth」as harem herd meat assets, chattel cattle that were traded among lords, the cargo, the goods, and so on.「Convertible wealth」as service providers available as short-term meat rentals at the shaman's temples of love, shrines of sex, pleasure palaces, caves o' wonder used to convert a client's wealth into the shaman's wealth.
　Alternatively,「transformed and cauldron」perhaps refers to our early human cannibal days of a「person knocked down, transformed」and becomes PROPERTY of VALUE, an ASSET, but must first be CARRIED back to the home cavern as CARGO, FREIGHT and placed into the「fleshpot」to become transformed into GOODS, a useful meat PRODUCT, that is, a VALUABLE meal everyone at home can eat.
　Note that meat in its various forms was used as the first true CURRENCY among both cannibals and shamans, and was both more readily accepted and easier to enjoy eating than seashells, silver and gold, or paper currency.
