The experience of motherhood by feminist women

Abstract

The following article discusses the relections on motherhood from the feminist perspective and describes the experiences of motherhood from a feminist point-of-view, speciically with the organization “Casa de la Mujer.” The central themes of analysis are: i) the ambivalent experience of desire; ii) the experiences of exclusion and infringement; iii) partner and parenting, agreements and disagreements; and iv) autonomy. It is concluded that through the motherhood experience, there are several elements that enhance the subjective reconiguration of women who are mothers and non-mothers, and those who are feminists and non-feminists.
