| Summary: | This paper addresses the context that surfaced in Brazil in the early 2000s, when young women emerged as collective subjects, claiming for their own identities and demands within the Brazilian feminist political field. With a qualitative approach, the purpose of this research aims to investigate the practices and narratives surrounding a strictly vegetarian diet (veganism) as enacted by these activists. Inquiring the meanings embedded in this activism upon the intersection of gender, sexuality, generation and species, it explores the reappropriation and deepening of the slogan “the personal is political”. |
