The official history of philosophy has been thought and formulated by men in accordance with a substantialist dualism, commanded by the phallo-onto-theo-logic transcendence of the perfect and immaterial Act. The emergence of feminist thinking has disrupted that hegemonic paradigm deconstructing its theoretical assumptions, and rehabilitating a new pattern based on the immanence of a dynamic and self-differing ma(t)ter. In the context of contemporary feminist philosophy, the current paper aims at reconsidering the sexual difference of female identity out of phallogocentric dualism or transgender nominalism as a new pattern of being and thinking.
