Resumen:	Until recently, gender has remained unarticulated in the discussions about the geological era we have entered: the Anthropocene. However, the patriarchycapitalism alliance has played an important role in the transition from the Holocene to the Anthropocene. Together they have defined the hierarchies, exclusions and forms of appropriation that have ultimately led to a crisis of sustainability and justice. In this context, modern law has legitimised the joint deployment of both systems. Within the current structures of law, the legal subject of modernity remains the Andros, a mere fiction that pretends that the rights-bearer is independent and self-sufficient. The fallacy of universality has allowed him to take the lion's share, at the expense of the exclusion of large masses of the population from the distribution of resources. This occurs, to a large extent, through the traditional relegation of women to nature and the private sphere as reproducers, carers and providers. Indeed, law does not recognise the intrinsic vulnerability of the human being, which is exacerbated by individual, social and environmental experiences. Therefore, it seems necessary to reconceptualise the legal subject embedded in law. Only by recognizing the multiplicity of vulnerabilities will we move towards fairer, more resilient and more sustainable societies.
