The Dissymmetry of Male and Female

The justified critique of naturalism does not mean that one can do without nature. This article seizes the irreducible biological processes of erection and pregnancy to investigate how the male and female conducts of seduction, imagination and violence are constructed with respect to them. The hypothesis examined consists in arguing that a structural dissymmetry in female and male genitalia produces a minimum of dissymmetry in conducts such as prudishness, which does not obey to a natural junction but rather as a junction to exceed nature.
