"We will start by discussing the views taken on women by biology, psychoanalysis, historical materialism. We will then try to show positively how "female reality" has been formed, why women have been defined as the Other and what the consequences have been from the point of view of men. Then we will describe from the point of view of women the world as it is proposed to them; and we will be able to understand what difficulties they are encountering at the moment when, trying to escape from the sphere that has been assigned to them so far, they claim to participate in the human mites.» Simone de Beauvoir.
