About this book

In the early 20th century, as societal norms surrounding gender began to shift, Otto Weininger’s "Sex & Character" emerged as a provocative philosophical examination of the interplay between masculinity and femininity. Weininger delves into the essence of character, positing that the spiritual disparities between men and women can be distilled into fundamental principles. He challenges prevailing notions, arguing for a unified understanding of gender that transcends conventional binaries. This authorized translation from the Sixth German Edition invites students, philosophers, and civic activists to engage with Weininger’s controversial ideas on identity and morality. With its bold assertions and intricate reasoning, "Sex & Character" remains a vital text for those exploring the philosophical dimensions of gender.
