If Fred were a Utilitarian

Utilitarianism is based on consequentialism. It is a doctrine where the ends justify the means. This implies that if one really needs to reach a certain goal but the process to attainment of that goal is wrong ethically, morally or otherwise, the individual would still go through with the process so long as their goal it attained at the end. This is a system which values the outcome more than the process. Fred is in a position where he has previously experienced the challenges that come with being unemployed.

Aviva’s remarks, in “Feminism in a Mad World”, makes clear the stereotyped activities women ...
