Resumo:
Este artigo pretender analisar as demandas de gênero no contexto da teoria feminista contemporânea, com especial ênfase aos trabalhos de Drucilla Cornell e Judith Butler, e a relação que guardam com certos conceitos jurídicos, como o de sujeito de direito e cidadania. Pretende destacar a especificidade dessas demandas e como devemos considerá-las no contexto das democracias liberais que vislumbram na igualdade e na liberdade valores indispensáveis. Repensar a diferença sexual e o sujeito de direito torna-se relevante. Defende-se que uma compreensão cuidadosa da dimensão sexual dos sujeitos de direito se faz importante para uma reflexão teórica em torno das condições em que os indivíduos formulam suas demandas perante o poder soberano.

Abstract:
This article intends to analyze demands of gender within contemporary feminist theory, paying careful attention to the works of Drucilla Cornell and Judith Butler, and the possible relations that it guards with certain legal concepts such as legal subjects and citizenship. It pretends to highlight not only the particularities of these demands but also how we should considerate them in light of liberal democracies that regards freedom and equality as indispensable values. Rethinking sexual difference and legal subject becomes quite relevant for this project. We defend that a sensible understanding of the importance of the sexual domain regarding the existence of legal subjects is important for a theoretical reflection on the conditions which they formulate its political demands to the sovereign power.
