On women and animals: a reply to Gruen and Gaard
Article Abstract:
Ecofeminists should avoid likening the oppression of women with the oppression of animals. Women have very different capacities as compared to animals and natural elements. To say that women are exploited highlights the discrepancy between the economic benefits they receive and those received by their employers. Exploitation of animals, however, is an irrelevant concept as they do not suffer any deprivation in the economic sense.
