Kant and sexuality

Helga Varden

pp. 331-353

Kant's comments on sexuality are commonly found to be at best perplexing and at worst extraordinarily unenlightened and morally offensive. Varden starts by reconstructing what seems to be Kant's view on sexuality as well as providing an overview of the main, existing Kantian philosophical responses and alternative proposals to this account. In the last part of the chapter, she outlines a new Kantian approach to sexuality that overcomes the shortcomings of both Kant's own and the existing Kantian accounts.
