      I think you’ve got a point here:

      LABELING it “Emotional Labor” commoditizes it - turns a natural process of humanity into a product. To be sold.

      It is a labor and some people do take more than their fair share. As a man this term did help me understand some people who left me feeling completely drained every time I hung out with them.
