Abstract
There is a fight between the constructivist and culturalist idea of “gender" and the biological determinism that stands for “sex". But, what are we talking about when we refer to sex and gender? What makes each individual a woman or a man? The fundamental question is: what kind of attitude about "sex" and “gender" we actually have, while the human self-knowledge itself is challenged by the scientific and social changes? Perhaps we need to reconsider what we mean by “woman”, “man", “male”, and “female". The essay by Vera Tripodi, Philosophy of sexuality (Carocci, 2011), provides the reader with a clear synthesis of the results of the last two decades discussion in these issues.
