'Man and Woman' To understand the complexity of human sexuality, the author leaves aside prejudices, turning his gaze to the difference between man and woman: their development, their experiences and their maturity as father or mother. He discovers that sexual difference grows through the good quality of human relationships, like care and love. This body-psycho-social structure that allows to differentiate us as men and women is what the author calls 'sexed condition', because it is the way to exist as persons.
