community and the woman, a woman by their physiological development. So for now, we are at another important issue, namely, what is a woman?
the author tells us that man defines woman not in itself, but for him, therefore situated in the plane of another. Otherness - he tells us, is a fundamental category of human thought, since according to Hegel, the subject (man) is posed in the form of opposition, seeks to establish itself as the essential and up to the other (woman) inessential, the object. But women are also, for itself, a consciousness, that consciousness that he opposes a claim recipRock the subject (man) and assumed to itself as subject and / or Absolute.
Beauvoir's next step is to make sharp analogies between the situation of women and various oppressed throughout history, and wonders why the submission of women?

But right now, we find another puzzle, since if we assume that the couple is a fundamental unit, why not take advantage of this woman to assume as subject, and not another? Clearly, on the other hand, that puts the male biological necessity of female dependence. It is understood that the duality of the sexes there was a struggle for supremacy, but it seems that men have won this fight, fight it before. The men - says the author, could not enjoy the privileges of men, if they had not considered based on the absolute and eternityxistencia mind that a future expansion infinitely open.
I would add that what was stated by the author on the positive side of man, and the negative of women, seen from the entire history of mankind. Taking the example of Yin and Yang are seen to be opposing forces, but at the same time, creating additional and different objects in the Universe. Although the Yang (male) was the positive side, it could not exist without the characteristics of Yin (female) or without the Yin Yang, was concerned, therefore, a balance of forces. Another important fact is that we see, at the command, part of Yin and Yang in the other part of the Yin Yang then had features in common. This example
