In chapter 12 Noodings (2016) takes a deeper look into feminist ethics, more specifically an ethic of care. She maintains that everyone at some point in their life has been cared for and generally spontaneously shows care for others, which she calls ‘natural’ care. She also refers to ‘ethical’ caring, which is when we need to make a conscious decision that showing care for someone is the right this to do. Kant described the differences “between the acts we do spontaneously out of love and those we do from duty” (pg. 226) describing care from duty is superior to that of love.
