Exploring the concept of binary oppositions, the work delves into how these dualities shape Western thought, establishing a hierarchical structure where one term dominates the other. This framework not only categorizes the world but also perpetuates a violent hierarchy, particularly evident in gender dynamics, where masculine terms are privileged over feminine ones. The analysis highlights the obscured similarities and internal differences within these binaries, emphasizing the critical views of feminist theorists like Luce Irigaray on the implications for societal misogyny.
