I don't agree that just because lyrics are focused on sex that they're somehow saying that "a female's worth only derives from sexual activities."
It's not the focus on sex. Rather, it's the contempt and condescension coupled with it. At worst, you could make a case for rapey, like when saying that women will be funked in the ass (which is fine) and have little say in the matter (which is not okay).

I don't mind sex at all, but Frank doesn't always communicate healthy ways to go about it. Those songs are for guys, which saddens me a little bit.
