Description

What sort of ethics do we need in a world that often ignores the physical reality of women? In The Bodies of Women: Ethics, Embodiment and Sexual Differences, Rosalyn Diprose examines how traditional ethical frameworks often remain blind to the mechanisms that subordinate women. This work explores how social discourses and practices evaluate and define modes of embodiment as improper in relation to men. Diprose provides a deep analysis of both feminist and non-feminist ethics to understand how they recognize or fail to recognize sexual difference. The text also looks at the biomedical discourses that shape our understanding of the body. This book is a significant resource for students and scholars interested in how social structures and ethical theories impact the lived experiences of women and the way their bodies are perceived in society.
