The essay argues with Michael Slote about his position in his early works on the symmetric nature of the so-called “common-sense virtue ethics.” According to Slote, act-utilitarianism as one of the ruling theories in contemporary ethics distinguishes itself from other major theories such as Kantian ethical deontology by its feature of the self-other symmetry, while the latter, together with common-sense moral views, take morality essentially as a self-other asymmetrical morality. Slote argues that his common-sense virtue ethics is different. It does neither neglect the well-being or the happiness of oneself as the agent involved in a moral action, nor is it agent-neutral, as observed in act-utilitarianism or act-consequentialism.
