Resumen

¿Qué significa para una persona declarar al mundo su veganismo? ¿Cómo impacta la transición de una dieta a otra en su sentido de sí mismx? El veganismo pone a prueba el carácter fundamental de la forma en que nosotros mismos ‘nos actuamos’ –no menos en el contexto de la sexualidad y el género. Por lo tanto, será objeto de interés en mi trabajo el potencial del veganismo para interrumpir el vínculo “natural” entre las formaciones de género y el consumo de productos de origen animal, ya que este está ligado a las genealogías sociales y culturales. En consecuencia, voy a explorar una forma queer de veganismo que afirme el impacto radical de lo que Sara Ahmed llama ‘desviación compartida’.
