What Is A Woman? by Toril Moi
And Other Essays
A collection of essays that scrutinize the contested meaning of “woman,” arguing for clearer, evidence-based distinctions between sex and gender while rejecting simplistic biological determinism and unqualified social constructionism; the author examines implications for law, medicine, and feminist politics, defends the significance of sex-based rights and women’s autonomy, and urges careful, respectful debate about transgender inclusion and the protections owed to different groups in a pluralistic society.
