★Philosophy has always been considered a product of reason over entities, however philosophers who are human beings cannot be divorced from their own bodies, identities, and social environments. Throughout history, philosophers have been mostly male; has this singularity of gender and identity affected the philosophy itself? From a feminist perspective, this book explores the absence of philosophers' reflection on their own male identity and the implications of this absence for philosophical practice.
★Human beings are always affected by their bodies and identities, and have their limitations, philosophers are no exception. This book offers a unique perspective on philosophy, allowing us to observe the past and present theories in a new sight, and to reflect on commonly held notions like "objectivity" and "neutrality".

From a feminist perspective, this book investigates the absence of philosophers' reflection on themselves as men and the effects of this absence on philosophical practice. If philosophy has claimed to be the product of disembodied reason, Lorenzo Gasparrini resurrects the body of the philosopher in its gendered membership as an unthought condition of thought.
To imagine oneself outside any position is a dangerous philosophical and political illusion. By universalizing his own particular, the traditionally white male and cisgender philosopher has ended up rendering invisible other declinations and entanglements of bodies and experiences, theorizing a false and hypocritical neutrality of concepts. Yet to take responsibility for one's own positioning, material and symbolic, in the body and in the world is to account more fully and justly for one's condition as a human being.
