What is the relation between femininity, masculinity and the human? Does sexual difference affect our identity? Does it affect our relations with others? Is there any link between cultural and racial difference and sexual difference? Where does equality fit into all this? Drawing on the work of recent feminist philosophers this unit examines philosophical and psychoanalytic representations of femininity, the issue of embodiment, and how sex and race are articulated within the concepts of otherness and the stranger.
