Abstract

In recent decades, consent has become a central ethical guideline for navigating sex in a diverse and imperfect world. Increasingly, however, many feminists are charging that consent cannot carry the weight we have asked it to carry. A critical legal criterion, consent has fallen short as an ethic. But what would a sexual ethics beyond consent look like? This paper suggests that the writings of Martin Luther might have something to offer contemporary feminist debates over consent and desire, and, conversely, that contemporary debates in sexual ethics might have something to offer Luther studies. In this paper, I develop a Lutheran critique of consent-based ethics and advocate for a turn from an ethic of choice to an ethic of attention.

性伦理需要路德对自由意志的批判吗?路德和同意的问题
近几十年来,“同意”已经成为在一个多样化而不完美的世界中引导性行为的核心伦理准则。然而,越来越多的女权主义者指责说,同意不能承担我们要求它承担的责任。作为一项关键的法律标准,“同意”作为一种道德标准已经有所欠缺。但是,超越同意的性伦理是什么样子的呢?本文认为,马丁·路德的著作可能对当代女权主义关于同意和欲望的辩论有所帮助,相反,当代性伦理的辩论也可能对路德的研究有所帮助。在本文中,我对基于同意的伦理进行了路德式的批判,并主张从选择伦理转向关注伦理。
