jessalin 's review for:
The Sexual Politics of Meat: A Feminist-Vegetarian Critical Theory
by Carol J. Adams
"We are continuously eating mothers. The fact is that we proclaim and reinforce the triumph of male dominance by eating female-identified pieces of meat. "
"By speaking of meat rather than slaughtered, butchered, bleeding pigs, lambs, cows, and calves, we participate in language that masks reality."
Magnificent! This was very enlightening and thorough. I highly recommend to anyone even remotely interested! Adams did a wonderful job in painting a very broad context that shows us the very serious repercussions of eating meat and demeaning women. I particularly thought the language of absent referent, Frankenstein's creature, and The Great War were very eye-opening.
