Contradictions: Lives, Decisions, Thoughts

Abstract

Approaching the feminine and the masculine on the basis of theory contradicts the feminine. A complete and coherent approach of genders must make room for a clear delimitation between theory and practice. It is thus necessarily a practical as well as a theoretical approach. Yet, it is reciprocally a theoretical approach as well as a practical one. This methodological necessity makes clear the vitalizing contradiction between feminine and masculine. This innate contradiction in fact represents the very place of humanity’s rise. Misunderstanding each other and repairing their misunderstandings are the ways by which feminine and masculine ground the capacity of humans’ humanization.
