Abstract:This essay explores how feminist utopian literature can inform bioethical debates regarding the fundamental differences between female and male experiences of human reproduction, focusing on the use of biological and technological methods to redress natural inequalities arising from biological difference. Inherently speculative, utopian fiction serves as a useful tool for interrogating social and political attitudes toward procreation and childrearing, adopting a similar degree of abstraction as a philosophical thought experiment. Thus, there is the potential for bioethicists to engage more thoroughly with this form of literature in order to communicate key ethical issues related to reproductive rights and sexual equality.

乌托邦文学与生命伦理学:探索生殖差异和性别平等

摘要:本文探讨了女权主义乌托邦文学如何为关于女性和男性人类生殖体验之间的根本差异的生物伦理辩论提供信息,重点是使用生物和技术方法来纠正由生物差异引起的自然不平等。本质上是投机性的,乌托邦小说是一种有用的工具,可以用来询问社会和政治对生育和养育孩子的态度,采用与哲学思想实验类似的抽象程度。因此,生物伦理学家有可能更彻底地参与这种形式的文献,以交流与生殖权利和性别平等相关的关键伦理问题。
