The Dialectic of Sex

Book • 1970
In 'The Dialectic of Sex,' Shulamith Firestone presents a revolutionary analysis of gender inequality by combining Marxist theory with feminist ideals.

She critiques biological determinism and traditional gender roles, arguing that these are socially constructed barriers to women's liberation.

Firestone also challenges Freudian psychoanalytic theories, advocating for a society where gender roles are not predetermined by biology.

The book envisions a future where the distinction between sexes no longer dictates social roles, aiming for a post-revolutionary society free from gender-based oppression.
