The Sexual Politics of Meat

The Sexual Politics of Meat: A Feminist-Vegetarian Critical Theory | Carol J. Adams

Really glad to see Adams call Audible out on this. A 2012 New York Times piece references this: “On average, 24 horses die each week at racetracks across America. Many are inexpensive horses racing with little regulatory protection in pursuit of bigger and bigger prizes.”

Looking forward to a day when animals aren‘t bred for entertainment.

Chrissyreadit Wow! I‘m not sure of what is going on - is there a horse named audible? But am always glad to see people stand up for animals! #veganlitsy 7y

dariazeoli @Chrissyreadit There is, and they‘re using him to run a sweepstakes where the prize is headphones and a membership 😒 7y

GripLitGrl I agree it's cruel I refuse to watch or attend! 7y

This is an extremely thought provoking book. As a feminist and Vegetarian admittedly I‘m the right audience for it but I really feel everyone should read this book. It really makes you think about societal messages.

TrishB Sounds interesting 👍 7y

SoniaC @TrishB Very much so. 7y

Suet624 Hmmm. I‘ve been both a feminist and a vegetarian for 40+ years. I‘ll have to find this! 7y

SoniaC @Suet624 I think you‘ll find it interesting. 7y

I posted about these on Prime Day, and today's #bookmail is here! I think these are both important books that deserve a read. Or, in my case, a reread!

I kind of wish we had a #vegan book club around here! As if I didn't have enough reading on my plate 🌱

queerbookreader Me me me me I am all for vegan book club 🙋🏻🙋🏻🙋🏻 my checking account is at double digits right now so I couldn't buy any books on prime day 😭 8y

dariazeoli @lemonlime799 I've never been in a book club before! #whodunitbymail is my first and even that has me anxious about properly recording my thoughts about what we read 😁Thank goodness for libraries when our funds don't match our TBR lists! 8y
