Sex, Love, and Gender is the first volume to present a
comprehensive philosophical theory that brings together all of
Kant's practical philosophy - found across his works on ethics,
justice, anthropology, history, and religion - and provide a
critique of emotionally healthy and morally permissible sexual,
loving, gendered being. By rethinking Kant's work on human nature
and making space for sex, love, and gender within his moral
accounts of freedom, the book shows how, despite his austere and
even anti-sex, cisist, sexist, and heterosexist reputation, Kant's
writings on happiness and virtue (Part I) and right (Part II) in
fact yield fertile philosophical ground on which we can explore
specific contemporary issues such as abortion, sexual orientation,
sexual or gendered identity, marriage, trade in sexual services,
and sex- or gender-based oppression. Indeed, Kant's philosophy
provides us with resources to appreciate and value the diversity of
human ways of loving and the existential importance of our
embodied, social selves. Structured on a thematic basis, with
introductions to assist those new to Kant's philosophy, this book
will be a valuable resource for anyone who cares about these issues
and wants to make sense of them.
