There was a tradition in some areas in ancient China in which a man took a woman by force for marriage. If there were more women than men, then the hunter and the hunted changed their place. Now a handsome young man was kidnapped by a young woman for marriage. The young man told the woman:"If you marry me this way, you can only get my person, but you can't win my heart." The woman replied:"I only want your person. I don't want to win your heart." To the woman, what was more important was using the man to seed her to have her own offsprings.

The question here is whether "You can get my person" is natural in English or understandable to you.
