A Defense of the Feminist-Vegetarian Connection

From: Hypatia
Volume 20, Number 1, Winter 2005
pp. 150-177 | 10.1353/hyp.2005.0015

Abstract

Kathryn Paxton George's recent publication, Animal, Vegetable, or Woman? (2000), is the culmination of more than a decade's work and encompasses standard and original arguments against the feminist-vegetarian connection. This paper demonstrates that George's key arguments are deeply flawed, antithetical to basic feminist commitments, and beg the question against fundamental aspects of the debate. Those who do not accept the feminist-vegetarian connection should rethink their position or offer a non-question-begging defense of it.
