But the that's the same as saying your phone doesn't exist if you don't have anyone to call. It still exists, even if you don't need or use it. You will own yourself even if you don't need to claim that ownership against another claim.

And property has a few traits that apply really well to your own body: you control access to it, you literally control it and you can use or dispose of it in whichever way it pleases you.

You still have all those powers regardless of which society you live in or even if there is another human being in the same planet
