Abstract: | The question of maternity has been a main issue in feminist debates. The aimof this paper isto showhowlesbian maternities put into question the concept of mother and maternity. Basedon an autoethnography, we want to show(i) that the place of the nongestational mother is a‘noplace’ and source of hermeneutic injustice, (ii) that the familiar bonds are conceived as aconnection among genetics, biology, breastfeeding and upbringing and (iii) that there aremultiple forms of discrimination and institutional violence (legal and medical) against nonnormative maternities. We also argue that lesbian maternities open newpossibilities withrespect to the concept of maternity, to the creation of newupbringing roles that are notpreviously and normatively established and to questioning sexual division of labor and genderroles in raising children. |
