CLIMACO, Júlia Campos. Constructions of motherhood in feminist and disability studies. Rev. Estud. Fem. [online]. 2020, vol.28, n.1, e54235. Epub 01-Jan-2020. ISSN 1806-9584. https://doi.org/10.1590/1806-9584-2020v28n154235.
This theoretical essay analyzes proximities and distances between feminist and disability studies in care and motherhood constructions. It discusses the elaboration of a norm for human experiences, of disability studies as well as ethics of care, social construction of a normative motherhood and its implications for women living with disabilities. Within feminist disability studies, women with disabilities or mothers of people with disabilities point out that the patriarchal motherhood institution interpellates them differently, for they are not compelled, but discouraged to reproduce and care, unfavorably positioned in the reproductive hierarchy. With their own experiences as starting point, they indicated diverse maternal experiences, beyond motherhood norms.
