Abstract
The building of a democratic society implies a cardinal "ethical shift" leading to "leveling" relations in a society that is not divided into "private" (female) and "public" (male). "Men's ethics" is repressive, "imposing" care, does not take into account the interests of neither the host nor the caregiver. In this light, "female ethics" allows us to establish more just relations: the asymmetry of the giver and the taking care is overcome, the "private" needs of all actors of social and ethical interactions that are hidden up to now are taken into account.
