Abstract

This essay analyses different discrimination on the autonomous use of sex in human and non-human females. The aim is to show how the female emancipation of the human species should not be considered complete if it does not include the sexual liberation of non-human females. The analysis starts from different positions: the first one concerns the theories of sexual emancipation based on the attention and liberation of the body; the second one concerns the insufficient consideration of non-humans for the emancipation of female sexuality; the third one criticizes female liberation movements that do not consider the system that exploits reproduction in intensive farming.
